Butch above Les, Gus, and McElwain is a terrible joke.

25. Les Miles



This is why I stopped buying these crap magazines. Didn't realize 24 other coaches have won a national championship and multiple conference championships.

Way too high.

Also too high. But serves as evidence that Bret Bielema is too high since he beats Bret Bielema every year.

Maybe because he gets top 10 recruiting classes yet can't win the SEC. Maybe the rankings are a look at the whole picture. As a coach doing more with less, would imply the coach is better but yet what do I know. Yes Miles can recruit and has a NC but LSU is more of a dominant power than Arkansas, yet Arkansas has out coached and beat LSU two seasons in a row.

He's done it twice and played for the conference title a third time.

Like a 10 win/season average over a decade in the SEC West?

Yep. One of those seasons was the worst under Miles in his tenure. The other one was almost his last, despite having 9 wins and a likely 10th win rained out.

Bert has lost to tamu three times in a row. Does that mean Sumlin is a better coach than Bert ?

How the frick does the SEC not have more in the top 25? Is anyone in the sec making less than 4 million dollars a year besides Mason and Odom?


Also this list is bullshite. Obviously some anti SEC bias.

it's a really bad list. Your attempt to justify these rankings that you didn't write, is rather cute and trollish all at the same time

Doesn't explain how Miles is ranked 5 spots lower than a coach he is 6-1 against, with 4 of those being two score victories, and whom he out-recruits every single year.

This ranking doesn't have a clear criteria, which makes it shite.
