Hypothetically speaking, what's more impressive? Winning a championship at LSU/Florida/Bama? Or going to the Capital 1 game at Vandy? What's a harder accomplishment?
All things are relative. Arkansas =/= Louisiana, Alabama, Florida, Texas, etc.
Apples to apples. Oranges to oranges.

I think SEC athletic directors would see things a lot more differently. Of course, they're educated past the level of a ferret.

Started this thread just wanting to see where LSU fans would rank Miles. I should have followed sheep logic in ranking my coaches so it wouldn't have bogged down into an actual argument with other teams.

So you just wanted to point out that Saban is better than Miles and then sit back and eat popcorn...gotcha.

But what you guys are saying is that if Petrino were to win 11 games every year, the rest of his career...but somehow never win a championship
Ever heard of John Cooper

Are people claiming that Larry Coker is a better coach than John Cooper?

Not at all. You're not this dumb.

No, a coach's first job is to RECRUIT the best players. Hired help doesn't count.

Ohio St fans probably do.

Considering a good portion wanted him fired within the last year or 2, I fully expected to see a few of you rank him dead last after last night.

Where would you rank John Cooper if he were able to be on this list, using his record at tOSU?

Sumlin
Pinkel
Franklin
Freeze
Mullen
Muschamp
Dooley

I'm not about to pretend I know enough about a coach that retired 10 years ago and where Ohio State's resources are/aren't strong.
I know that Arkansas hasn't done shite in decades and, compared to some schools in the SEC - they still haven't. But you can't judge a coach at Arkansas the same as you would a coach at Florida or Texas. Just like you can't judge a coach at vandy like you would a coach at arkansas. There are intrinsic characteristics at each school that make winning easier/harder.
Is it easier to win a championship at Texas or Vandy? Answer me that question, then tell me how using championships as a gauge for measuring coaching prowess makes sense in the least?

Now I see why Arkansas fans get picked on a lot.

Its probably harder to get to the Cotton Bowl as teh coach at KSU tahn it is at Arky so Bill Snyder is also better than CBP.
