| Could Gruden beat Nick Saban or Les Miles? (Posted on 4/22/12 at 8:49 pm)
I think if he did go to ARK he would be no better than 4th or 5th best. Not that he's coming.......

A question we will never know the answer too, so I'm not even going to try to give an unbiased answer.
We would kick their ass.

Only if he coached under Saban for 10+ years. Even then Saban would know all of his weaknesses and there would be no chance of this happening.

Gruden would make them his Bizzatch and then laugh about it while replaying his Sportscenter highlights over and over again on his DVR while making them lick the diamonds in his Superbowl ring.
Saying boys this is what one of these looks like and now I know what a BCS championship ring looks like.

Gruden would beat miles about 80% of the time. Saban, he would beat about 75%. He would have a national title his second year and would win at least 4 or 5 in a ten year period.

A better question is: "Could Saban or Miles beat Gruden?"

College football is as much about talent as it is coaching. That's why Saban was just "good" at Michigan State. He gets elite level talent LSU and Bama and he wins 10+ a year. Les Miles goes from good to elite after moving from Okie Lite to LSU.
If Gruden is as good as a recruiter as many believe he will be, he will a ton of games and compete for SEC West championships.

He won the Super Bowl so I would guess that coaching is something he is pretty good at. I would say yes, provided he does well recruiting.

Well Petrino managed to finsh ahead of both of them and didn't finish below 3rd in his final 2 seasons... so obvious flame is obvious.

Coaching NFL is way harder than coaching college so i would say yes.

OK. Let me get this. When you all rank the top coaches in the SEC, Les is always laughed at and placed about 4-5. But everyone knows, admit it or not, Nick and Les are 1,2 respectively.
