re: Top 10 SEC Coaches of the last decade

IMO both are very important, but personally I think it's tougher to win 2 in 3 years at the same school rather than 1 each at 2 elite schools with tradition. People will say, well Saban rebuilt Bama, but who didn't expect Saban to rebuild Bama? He's an elite coach at a historical powerhouse. The school has the facilities and the fan base to sell itself, then you add in Saban and they're going to get elite talent to win games.

When you win 2 in 3 years, you play with the talent on your current roster typically. Although, Meyer won it with new faces at almost every position. When you win 1 at 2 different schools, you typically get to build up the talent at each school, no matter how long it may take.

This is JMO, and both coaches are excellent. Like I previously stated, it's very tough to put one ahead of the other.
