List is crap. OM fans have told us Pete is a much better coach than Kiffin.

How can you rank Kirby 2 with 2 titles?

Kinda hard not to be so with the way you folks ran your cock holsters here for a few weeks.
We couldn’t escape it.
I will say, I believe reality is now setting in for you. The posts have slowed considerably.

It’s not nice to talk about yourself like this. I’m sure your man loves your cock holster.

Some of us have been traveling for the playoffs. Some of us are sitting at home posting through it.
Which are you?

He’s been coaching for 10 years and it took him 6 to win his first? Cignetti went undefeated and won it in 2.

I was going to say that was a good point and add that Smart was recruiting in fertile Southern fields while Cig got people to play in frigging Bloomington, then I remembered NIL.

I really can't stand at how coaching trees are quantified, so you're an assistant under a head coach so now you get to tied to them forever.
Like I get if a coach is a long time assistant under them..
Dan Lanning was under Saban for 1 year as a graduate assistant, so his whole career is owed to Saban?

If you're going to include Jimbo and Sharky you have to include Muschamp and Napier.
And didn't Dabo once coach for Saban? No real issue with leaving him off, though. He's a toad.

You just lost another player to us today.
Go ahead and tell me how terrible he is and how you're glad he's gone.

Cignetti's NC is worth more than Kirby's 2.

Kinda dumb to have Kirby at #2 but I guess this list is full of recency bias.

Seems pretty fair. I will admit that what Cignetti has done at Indiana has been the most impressive job, but I still would have Kirby at 1 until Cignetti shows long term consistency at the major conference level.

Dabo coached/played under stallings. Coached under dubose. Definitely bama guy but zero ties to saban.
