I think the list was a little too biased toward coaches who coached before 1960. Someone like Bobby Bowden should have been ranked a lot higher IMO.

Neyland too low imo

Saban should be ranked ahead of Bear. He's been far more dominant in a more competitive era.

Saban tGOAT n everyone knows it

26. Wallace Wade
Other than that, I might switch Tom Osborne with Fielding Yost. And I might switch Hayes and Stagg.

Gene Stallings is underrated on that list. He's minimum a Top 30 cfb coach of all time imho.
Great man as well.

I agree about the bias. Plus, I would say Bo Schembechler (#20) is too high. On this list, I don't see how you get in the top 20 without at least 1 MNC.
Slocum at #100 might be a bit generous, but he was absolutely a defensive genius, and did win a few conference titles.

Any list without Neyland in the top 10 is shite
Posted on 9/28/16 at 11:53 pm to Bench McElroy
The two Aggy on the list are too low.

Osborne is top 5 easily.

Agree, particularly Thomas. If there is a bias against pre-AP football, which would be understandable, then I can see them this low. But if that's the case, why is Rockne so high? Or Yost or Stagg? I think the list has most of the right names, but the order seems to be based on very inconsistent criteria.
