In no particular order, so everyone calm their tits.
1. Ohio State
2. Alabama
3. Texas
4. Oklahoma
5. Georgia
6. Florida
7. USC
8. Michigan
9. Clemson
10. Auburn
11. Tennessee
12. LSU
13. Miami
14. Notre Dame
15. Ole Miss
16. Georgia Tech
17. Oregon
18. Penn State
19. Florida State
20. South Carolina
21. Arkansas
These could all be arguably better than Texas A&M especially with Texas now joining the SEC.

I guess that works as long as you throw out all objective reasoning. Want to know how I know A&M is a top notch job? A&M has on at least 3 times been able to hire the absolute hottest coach in the country. They made Jackie Sherrill the first million dollar coach after he had consecutive #2 finishes at Pitt. They hired Fran from Bama which while it was a disaster was considered a massive coup at the time. They hired Jimbo away from FSU after several big programs had been trying to do so for years.
A&M has a virtually unlimited AD budget. A coach is paid at a super premium level, his Coordinators make HC money, his Assistants make Coordinator money. The facilities are absolutely top notch and all he has to do is dream it up and he will get more. Stadium is elite and consistently draws 100k plus. Location is right in the middle of the Texas triangle of Houston/DFW/Austin and it is the closest P5 school to Houston and it's 8 million people in the metro with high end recruits plus East Texas and can go after some Louisiana kids as well. Admin is extremely supportive and politics are minimal compared to other places. Yep, that sounds like a crap job.
BTW, I would argue that whomever replaces Saban probably has one of the worst jobs out there. They better get paid because following the GOAT at a place that also had The Bear is going to be impossible. It was brutal for all the coaches between those 2 with only Stallings having a small respite (but even his NC wasn't enough). Obviously it's a great job in every other aspect but the first man up after GOAT is going to be lucky to last 2 years if he doesn't win a Natty.

A&M is around 15-18 realistically. Move Oregon up above Ole Miss and I'd put the Aggys there at 16. Could make an argument that Penn State is probably a better job. Tennessee is also too high.

But it would be a weak argument.
No argument with some of the ones listed. But not seeing all 21.
Why not throw a few more in and round it out to 25? Like,
Michigan State
Wisconsin
Virginia Tech
UCLA
Not that I agree with those either, but why stop at 21?
