Where do you rank Spurrier all time amongst SEC coaches, because you have to figure he'd be pretty high. Revolutionized how the SEC played football with his Fun n Gun and now has South Carolina playing an elite brand of football.

I'd probably rank him third behind Bryant and Neyland.

I think he is better than Saban.

Any other coach win 4 straight SEC titles??
Cause Saban has never even won 2 straight

Top 3. Maybe top 2. What he did at UF was unreal.
Now he has turned SC into a very good and consistent winner and done stuff no other coach ever has there (back to back 11 win seasons, highly ranked).

So the gamecocks squeak by the outback bowl, and Spurrier is AMONG the greatest coaches of all time?

Great coach. Kind of a douche. Now, he's a leaning a bit more towards bitter old man. Uses up his players.

Spurrier is only second to Bryant

1) Bryant
2a) Neyland
2b) Spurrier
At some point you have to start mentioning Saban in there.

Top 5 for sure. He still has a couple more years to improve upon that as well. We'll see what happens.

Elite?
Spurrier is in a small group at the top, from his UF days.

I think realistically in accomplishments I'd say 3rd in SEC all time. If you take into account what he's done at UF and USC, I'd put him tops. He changed the way the entire SEC played football. He dominated the conference at a time when there was a lot of parity of talent and coaching.
He's done an amazing job at USC.

I am surprised no one has mentioned Bobby Dodd of Georgia Tech.
He may have been Gen Neyland's equal.
An intersting thread would be to name the best HC of each SEC school. A few names may be mentioned twice...
