Pretty terrible list. Mark Richt as Cersei? Dan Mullen as Kahl Drogo? Hugh Freeze as Theon? Les Miles as Varys? Laughably bad list. The only one you got right was Saban.

As for my choice on Hugh Freeze: Littlefinger. From very humble origins, Littlefreezer has had great success on all lower programs, bringing them from ruin to greatness in the matter of a few years. The former hand, Archie Arryn, saw his talents and recruited him to the SEC. Littlefreezer has since shown the talent for rubbing two golden recruits together and producing many others out of thin air, making him incredibly valuable to the Kingdom and its reputation. The upper coaches still look down on him and don't perceive him as a threat, but what they don't realize is he's made his way up the latter more quickly than anyone in recent memory. He's still not even close to entering his end game yet either.

HA looking at it now that list is pretty awful but it sounded good last night. I may have been a bit inebriated at the time though.

Very good description of Littlefreezer


Please do a nice one for Mullen as well. I'm thinking Thoros or Tyrion. Tyrion was on the rise but then got smacked down by his father but still manages to find a way to be important. Often ridiculed and looked upon with disdain..

Pretty sure the date is set for September 14th.

Also I would think AU is more like the Freys. One big family from one old dude and consistently pissed off that people over look them.

What you mean is Hugh Freeze is a whore master, purchasing the best talent in the seven kingdoms. Right???

You're kidding yourself if you think Mullen is Tyrion. The ones popping in my head right now aren't positive, with Janos Slynt currently being the front runner.

I would say that

Spurrier is Tyrion. They both have wit and speak their mind. Great leaders that are sometimes underestimated.

Saban is Varys. Avoids the spotlight while running shite. People don't like him. Recruits very specific little birds to run his system

Malzahn is Petyr "Littlefinger" Baelish. Only loyalty for himself and rises up from nothing. Crazy arse wife. Has played the game from the shadows but looks poised to become a huge player.

Mark Richt is Jon Snow. Treated like a bastard by the fanbase. Does a great job that is under-appreciated. Struggles at the highest level of the game

Les Miles is Arya Stark. By all account should be dead but is one of the most entertaining characters in the series. Somewhat of an oddball.

James Franklin is Gerold "Darkstar" Dayne. From a smaller house, haven't seen much but appears to have potential to be one of the more dangerous players in the game.

Mark Stoops is Brynden "Blackfish" Tully. Brother to one of the most powerful lords in the Seven Kingdoms. Known to be a great warrior but his ability to play the game of thrones is unknown.

Butch Jones is Euron "Crow's Eye" Greyjoy. Trying to return an old house to former glory. Previous accomplishments may be exaggerated. Wasn't the first choice to become leader by those in power on Pyke.

Gary Pinkel is Edmure Tully. In over his head when trust into the highest level of the game. Reeks of incompetence and is forced into a marriage he doesn't really want.

Dan Mullen is Danerys Targaryen. Interesting story at first but has become mired in mediocrity. Has trouble recruiting people to join their cause. Observers of the game actively root against instead of for their cause now.

Bret Bielema is Mance Rayder. Was successful in raising a large and formidable army beyond the Wall. Whether or not he will be successful south of the Wall hasn't been determined.

Hugh Freeze is Hodor. Hodor.

Kevin Sumlin is Melissandre. Was able to hitch their wagon to the right ride at the right time. Many are skeptical of their abilities. Potential to both play the game well at its highest level and to fall off into obscurity.

Will Muschamp is Randyll Tarly. Large and obnoxious. One of the best warriors in the game.
