I mean I hate them but they did get a road playoff win and went to the SEC title. More than anyone else below on the list

Remember when we had Meyer, Saban, Miles, Spurrier, Petrino, Richt. Fulmer, etc in 08..
We were fricking loaded with great head coaches

First place conference regular season finish, championship game appearance, CFP appearance, 1-1 in the CFP losing to the eventual national champions, finished 11-4 and ranked in the top 10. It was a better season than LSU has had this decade.

The 2020s SEC coaches are better than the 2010s at least. From 1980-2010 we were blessed with hall of famers on almost every sideline

Fulmer treated florida like that coach In the waterboy. We should have beat them so many more times than we did but fulmer was terrified of them. I pray to god that I don't ever get in a situation where i'm as scared of anything as philip fulmer was of florida

I wouldn't rank De Boer as high as #3 period, and if you're just ranking him at his current job (which seemingly should exclude his more successful tenure at Washington), I'd rank him as below average so far.
