re: Who is the best overall coach...

its not Saban or Miles- anybody can coach a bunch of 5-star talents to victory. Need to look at the guys coaching the 2 and 3-star guys and getting results.

Saban was down in talent when he got to Bama- and what did he do? Lost to Crooms and ULM on his way to 6-6

I see what you are saying but what are the primary functions of a CFB HC? To me it is:
01. Good staff hires
02. Recruiting
03. Keeping the whole program on the same page
04. Dealing with alumni/boosters/local media.

Coach Saban does 1-3 very well, not sure about #4. At LSU he seemed continually ticked. But to your point, if an HC is overachieving with 2&3 stars, congrats but he has failed at a primary function of recruiting.
