Any coaches you legit just didn’t like as a person?

All the accolades for Mike Leach are well deserved. Anybody should aspire to have similar things said about them when they cross the rainbow bridge.
That being said, I have a hard time thinking of many coaches where I really think they are just assholes or low-character people.
Some are better at needling. Some are ruthless. Some are just blah. Relatively few seem unlikeable.
At the college level, Urban “Win At ANY Cost” Meyer is my first thought.
In the NFL, it would prolly be Buddy “Bounty Bowl” Ryan.
Any others?

Not a Foosball coach....but Rick Stansbury. Met him right after he got on our campus.

Fat Fulmer.

Was Tommy Tuberville likable?

I don’t know any college or nfl coaches

This won't be popular. I don't care.
Spurrier. Hell of a coach but a petty individual, IMO.
I grew up on Shug, Bear, Dye, and Vince. Coaches who always praised and spoke highly of their opponents. Spurrier did not fit that mold by any measure.

Pete Carroll
Bob Stoops
Jimbo Fisher
Buddy Ryan
Dennis Franchione
Jim Tressel
Urban Meyer
Don't actively dislike but not a fan of:
Larry Fedora
Houston Nutt
Chris Petersen
Jim Leavitt
Bobby Petrino
Honorable Mention:
Jerry Jones. Owner who thinks he's a coach.
When Gary Patterson put his name forward for the TCU job, Franchione met with the brass at TCU and told them that Patterson wasn't "ready" to be a head coach. He actively tried to sabotage his career because he wanted to retain him on staff as his DC.
That's pretty low.

Welp, I never had to live with him as my coach, but I had to live with him whipping Tubbs arse. I always liked the Right Reverend Nutt.

Outside of the usual suspects, Bobby Petrino comes to mind. That guy was epically unlikable.
Posted on 12/13/22 at 4:22 pm to Ag Zwin
Bobby Petrino is a terrible human being

Really? I feel the total opposite.
To me they either come across as intentional a holes like Saban or Ra Ra try hards like Dabo.
Then you also have the lame as hell cliche machines.

Urban is a smug a-hole
Phat Phil is a back stabber and lowlife
Saban is just a dick
Petrino - see Saban
