Would you say that Dabo is a better overall head coach than Mark Richt?

I don't know. If you want to compare their first 8 years as head coaches:

Richt was 82-22 (79%)
Dabo is 85-25 (77%)

Richt had 2 SEC titles. Dabo has 2 ACC titles.

Richt went to 3 BCS bowls going 2-1. Dabo it's hard to really answer because the BCS is gone but to make it apples to apples let's say he went to 4 BCS bowls going 3-1.

Richt finished ranked all 8 years, 6 of those top 10 finishes, and two top 3 finishes.
Dabo finished ranked 7 years, with 4 top 10 finishes and two top 2 finishes.

However, no I'm not going to say "Dabo is better than richt because he won a title" because is it absolutely NOT an apples to apples comparison. IF the playoffs existed when Richt coached he would have made the playoffs and would have played for a title. If the playoffs didn't exist yet (like they didn't during richt's first 8 years) then Dabo wouldn't have a title or any top 2 finishes either (since both came in the last 2 years)

Based on results, you'd kind of have to, especially since most of those results were achieved during the same period.
