YES, when he passes Bear Bryant for most wins in SEC history there can be no doubt. He is already second.

Two names didn't get mentioned earlier in this thread that should for upper tier status. One is Bud Wilkinson at Oklahoma. That consecutive win streak may never be beaten.
The other one (and I know it'll get scoffed at) is Lou Holtz. Everywhere he went he turned programs around (NC State, Arkansas, ND...he even knocked off the Buckeyes x2 in bowl games at SCar) and won a title. People see him more as the cartoon character on ESPN, but he was a helluva coach*.

It would take Spurrier at least 4 and a half years to do that averaging six conference wins a year which is generous. He aint lasting that long and he ain't averaging that many conference wins a year
