neither year got them in the playoffs

9-7 doesn't keep your job in the NFL either

you could say it was progress, but it's not a successful year

I don't agree with it either, but we're certainly top 5. Athlon also had us at #2 in their latest list of jobs.




Top jobs in the country...my opinion only?

Texas, USC, Notre Dame, Alabama, Ohio State, Oregon, FSU.....I MIGHT put Florida in with that group. A case could certainly be made for it.

1. Texas

Pros: Texas offers the complete package: Great school in a great town with great tradition. Also, it’s located in a state that treats high school football like a religion.

Cons: Texas has a ton going for it (see above), but the Longhorns are only 25–14 in the last three seasons. The program is not immune to losing. And while Texas is a recruiting power, there are three other AQ conference schools in the state, and virtually every other national power dips into Texas to recruit as well.

Final Verdict: It’s easier said than done — just ask David McWilliams and John Mackovic — but everything is in place to win big on a consistent basis at Texas. Yes, the Longhorn Network creates a few headaches for the coaches, but elite talent is close in the recruiting ranks and money isn't a problem. And without a conference championship game, there's a favorable path to a spot in college football's playoff format.

I don't care what Athlon says. Opinions don't require links.

We're just gonna have to agree to disagree on this.

I'm not sure I would say best....but near the top. They are still top dog in Texas for the time being, and they have a ton of money. AND they have the media behind them.

Who's your favorite NFL team?

Buccs? Dolphins?

You'd be pumped for a 9-7 year?

I'd consider FSU and Miami ahead of UF. Miami at least is neighboring all that south Florida talent, and FSU doesn't have to play in the SEC.

If we just went 4-12 and had a new coach? Damn straight.

Edit: Wow, that's our current situation actually.

The U has high school facilities at best and have never won an ACC title. Since joining over a decade ago.
