Here are some of the highlights:

4 SEC teams in the Top 10

the Top 10 can largely be argued in many different orders.

The definition of "destination job" has been change by fiat of Athlon to mean "top 30 or so job"

Very interesting.

Correction: It appears I was wrong about the changing of the definition of Destination Job. It appears that they specifically rebutted that to say a top 30 job is not necessarily a Destination Job.

The fact that Alabama is not #1 is laughable.

FIFY. Texas is pretty well qualified to be either one or 1a in this discussion. It is hard to debate that. When Texas has Mack Brown they still win a title. When Bama has Mack Brown (Shula), he gets fired.

It's laughable that it's not also behind USC.

Two more 10-win seasons in a row and a renovation of Kyle puts us in the top 10.

Most of that list is laughable, he said A&M has some of the best facilities in the nation, but Kyle Field is a little on the old side.

It's also a giant shite box that produces a hellish stench anytime it rains.

Above whom? Those 10 have done a lot more than string together 3 10 win seasons.

Not really. Bigger yes, nicer not really. Everyone in the SEC for the most part has top of the line facilities.

It's a subjective list. You can say this about all lists. That's why it is good fodder. There is no one in the Top 10 that doesn't belong somewhere therein.

Notre fricking overrated has-been, going-the-way-of -Harvard and Yale, Dame. Unless you are telling me they belonged in the MNC game and have otherwise done JACK shite in the last 20 years.

ND is still a top job, although it is slipping a little.

The list is pretty fun to "Netflix." Here is an example of what I mean by that.

If you cheer for "Arkansas" football you might also like "Michigan State," "North Carolina," "Wisconsin", "Louisville," or "Pittsburgh" football.

I don't know about laughable, but no fan base in the country will get behind the football program more than we do, no university is going to be willing to commit more money to a new coach when their current one leaves, and people naturally wanna play in the SEC right now, but when the tradition factor comes in we're above everyone. Should we be first? Yeah probably, but arguments can be made for other teams.

The Kentucky job is ranked over the Mississippi State job.

Just wanted to point out the credibility of this ranking.

Kentucky football will never be relevant. To it's own university or the rest of the world.
