Ole Miss is an A in my opinion. If Kiffin has learned his lesson...he will be dangerous!

Washington promotes from within a guy who has only been a dc two years and gets an A? FSU strikes out with everyone and settles on a Memphis coach with baggage with a 38-15 reg season and 0-3 bowl record and gets an A? He inherited a good prgram from Fuente. Don't get me wrong, Norvelle was my first choice for OM, but that in no way is an A for FSU.
Rutgers A
Ole Miss A-
FSU B+
Ark, Mizzou, Wash C+

Them ranking Taggart over Mullen was hilarious. A losing record coach being considered an elite higher by a premier program. It's the gift that keeps on giving.

Looks more reasonable. I could give FSU an A, but I don't really know how far down their list they went

What say you?
I'd say coaching hire grades before said coaches have coached at least a season are pointless and don't mean anything. To revisit ESPN's grades following the 2016 season (gives coaches 3 years to get their systems in play and their recruits in the program) These are the ones that were way off in hindsight, but they did hit on Geoff Collins at Temple, PJ Fleck at Minnesota, Luke Fickell at Cincinnati, Lane Kiffin at FAU, and Matt Rhule at Baylor. All those coaches received B+ or better grades
Tom Herman (Texas) A - Two 7 wins seasons in 3 years at Texas. Just fired his offensive and defensive coordinators. Don't think Texas expected to be 7-5 in year 3 with Herman, nor would that equate to an "A" hire
Jeff Brohn (Purdue) A - have gone 7-6, 6-7, and 4-8 in three years. Pretty big fail there with an "A" grade
Ed Orgeron (LSU) B - has gotten better each year with a 38-9 record at LSU and is in the CFP in year 3
Willie Taggart (Orgeon) B - stayed there 1 year, fired at FSU in the middle of his 2nd season
Tom Allen (Indiana) B - Led Indiana to 8 wins for the first time since 1993 and their first winning season since 1994 (they went 6-5 in 1994)
Jeff Tedford (Frasono St) B- - rough year this year but went 10-4 in 2017 and 12-2 last year, retired this year due to health concerns
Jay Norvell (Nevada) B- - has led Nevada to 8-5 and 7-5 records the past 2 seasons, which is as good as or better than they've been most years since they joined D1 football in 1993
Butch Davis (FIU) C+ - FIU was 17-43 in the 5 years preceding his hire with no winning seasons. He has gone 23-15 in 3 years with three straight bowl appearances. FIU had two bowl appearance all-time before his arrival.
Shawn Elliott (Ga. State) C - Ga State has only been a D1 program since 2010. Elliott has led them to two 7-5 seasons in 3 years as coach

Ole Miss didn't beat anyone out for theirs. Ole Miss got saddled with a bad hire by Arkansas.
Arkansas didn't meet with Kiffin? And how did Ole Miss get saddled with Arkansas' bad hire when Kiffinw as hired before Pittman?
quote:
Much the same as how Arkansas saddled Auburn with a ridiculous contract extension a couple years ago.
wat?

Ehh they gave the Chad Morris hire a B+ so I don’t really give a frick what they think they know.
