It's hard to quantify what the "best jobs" are because everyone values different things.

If a head coach really valued prestige, a lot of historical success, and that type of thing, Alabama is his #1.

If a coach wants job security, a guaranteed contract, and low expectations, it's hard to argue against Texas A&M.

A guy from the West Coast may really covet Oregon or USC and not give a flip about moving to Athens to coach the Dawgs.

To me, "history" outside of the last 20 years or so means very little because most recruits don't care about stuff that happened before they were born so a Tier 1 job to me would be:

-Great success over the last 20 years

-Top 10 facilities

-A fertile enough recruiting area that you can be top 5 here and there and always top 10

-The ability to pay a top 10 salary for coaches and assistants

-Low booster interference

-Recent success putting players into the NFL
