Of course the homer in me wants to think Petrino is near the top but I hold him somewhat responsible for our loss vs. bama. I know he coached a less talented team to a near victory, but I cant escape the lack of a running game. We CANNOT turn the corner without it...so here goes

1. Saban......obvious
2. Meyer......Is he ranked so high because of past success? We find out Saturday
3. Chiz.......I laughed at this hire initially...not so much now
4. Miles.....IF he would hire an OC that could develop a QB he would be ranked higher (but LSU was my pick to win the West this year)
5. Petrino...want to put him higher, but this ain't the Big East (BUT, no one outside of Ark. understands how little he had to work with when he arrived here and just how far he has come)
6. Dooley....Not sure why, but I really think he is a good one
7. Richt...things aren't looking good, but I think Bobo is a BIG part of his problems
8. Nutt....good god, i have been dealing with this man for half my life and still can't figure him out
9. Phillips....See #6
10. Spurrier...think he has lost it (pulling his starter on the last drive only reinforces my thoughts)
11. Mullen, could very easily be as high as 6-7, just haven't seen enough to convince me yet
12. Caldwell...funny guy but out of his league

Miles could be so much better if he would get out of his own way. LSU has a killer defense and special teams. Recruiting is amazing. This is his 6th year and there is no talent drop off.

But, the OC and QB is atrocious. That will be his undoing and it is such a waste. If LSU had even decent QB play, November 6th against Alabama in Tiger Stadium would be the date everyone was penciling as deciding the SEC. As it is, LSU fans are hoping we finish better than 8-4. Beyond frustrating.

Oh yeah, he is also terrible at clock management. But, objectively, he has done about 2/3 of his job really well. It is the other third that will be his undoing.

I like Mullen, but i think that this time next year they will have exceeded his SEC wins in the same time frame

Miles and Chizik are too high. Mullen is a little too low. Otherwise, I pretty much agree.

Maybe you should change the title of the thread?

State will get better and better each year as Crooms players depart and Mullen's come in. With that, at the minimum Mullen will have 5 SEC wins from 09-10 with 3-5 wins being a possibility next year if the team progresses. Joker or Dooley aren't winning 7-10 SEC games in a year.

What all has he done? Don't get me wrong, I'm impressed with him, but it's based upon what I think he could potentially do, not on what he has done.

What exactly has he done that's so impressive? He's an average coach at best. He failed in the Big XII, great coaches don't fail anywhere. He may win a lot of regular season games as long Malzahn's there, but I'd be more than shocked if he ever won anything of significance at AU.

Well.. He has his team ranked #10 in the nation right now and he's made all the right hires and recruited outstanding so far..

Who predicted he would do ANY of that? Nobody...
