Sly Croom. Ranked above 100th in offense all five years at State. One winning season.


He is top 3 easily.

Dooley. When you don't recruit one offensive lineman your in the running automatically

Curley Hallman


When he came to Bama as DB coach after his LSU debacle, it is rumored that instead of being out on the recruiting, like he was supposed to do, he was always drunk in a dive bar somewhere.

Way to much talk about Curly this week. It's weird.

I disagree. His suckage resulted in us getting Bryant.

Hallman has nothing on Dooley. Hallman actually had a good record at USM.


See my Brett Favre reference from above. He was the starting qb for all three years of Hallman's tenure at So Miss

Bama was an established power and the best program in the league before Bear. Ears took us straight into the toilet, winless seasons. Imagine someone coming to Bama now and not just making them crappy and mediocre, but the absolute worst team in the league. He may be the worst coach of all time

People don't realize how bad Joker Phillips was. Kentucky has historically sucked at football, and he found a way to take us to a suckage we didn't know about. Brooks left him a good team, too. I was surprised when Florida hired him.

Brad Scott. South Carolina had a 21 game losing streak which extended from the second game in Scott's last year to the entirety of Holtz's first year. How is that even possible? Scott might go down as the worst recruiter of all-time because a legendary HOF coach couldn't manage to win a single game over an entire season with his players despite not having to deal with any sanctions or scholarship limitations.

Not Croom; he did have 1 winning season, with Bowl Win & SEC coach of the year; beat AlaBama twice in a row.
