And yes, Miles does bring in wins. He makes it impossible to lose with all the talent Wilson(Porter pre-Wilson)brings in.


College football is mostly about recruiting genius.
Saban was a good coach at Mich. St. A great coach at LSU. An average coach (being generous) with the dolphins. And now a great coach at bama. What does that tell you? Do I need to hold your hand and spell it out for you?

Sorry about my son's rant. He's punished for a week. That'll show him!

Miles > everyone else

I believe the only coach that may be better than Malzahn is Saban. That said, I strongly believe Malzahn is the most innovative coach in the conference and perhaps the nation.

Football evolves, and it appears to be coaches like Malzahn who come up with new schemes who are influencing the evolution today. At Auburn, we are developing hybrid players, QB's who can be RB's, WR's who can be RB's, etc. Even on the defensive side, a DE who could be an LB, DB who could be a LB, etc.

Defenses are always conforming to offenses, and with an offense like Malzahn's, Saban's strategy of having 'specialty players' is becoming less effective. Players need to be more mobile and flexible in terms of their responsibilities because these offenses are so dynamic.

Saban and Spurrier
Miles is pretty much on the same level as Richt with the only separation is a title that LSU backed into.

I thought Boom would do good in Florida. Was at the top of my list for asst. for our head coaching job.


I think he can be a great coach, I don't know if he is the right fit for UF. I hope he finds success but I think it is hard to be a defensive minded guy at Florida.

Still ducking the OP's question. Well played.


As for me, Saban and Spurrier are head and shoulders above the rest of the league. But they are also within a couple of years of the end of their careers.

I'd add Miles and Richt to the list in front of Gustav right now, based on their longevity. I'll be happy if Malzahn is as successful at AU over as long a tenure as either of those two.

I don't think there's another HC in the Conference who stands out as one who will approach the sustained excellence of the four listed above.

Saban ... maybe. Saban is definitely the best recruiter.

That's about it although I have tremendous respect for Les Miles, he's been blessed at LSU and he's done a great job.

IMHO there is not a finger all-around coach in the SEC than Spurrier. But I admit my bias.

So Spurrier really does lend his players a special hand?

Pointless thread. Everyone is just naming the coaches that either beat their own teams and/or have natty's on their belt. Both Spurrier and Saban have been in the game a long time and they've won on the big stage hence why they are on top of everyone's list. Guarantee if an SEC team wins the natty this year and we start this thread again a year from now the coach of that team will be on a lot of these posts.

And a "better" coach can be defined several different ways. Recruiting, Offensive output, Defensive output.

Only 4 coaches deserve to be on the list. The rest: too soon to tell at this level.

Other than the big 4, who is ready to offer 10 year contracts to your coach?
