Any list has to have Dooley. UT is still trying to recover from how bad that asshat was.

Rockey Felker 21-34 (5-28)


Sylvester Croom 21-38 (10-30)

Both can be on it.

Earl Brown

Guy was brought into Auburn in 1948 due to his Notre Dame background.

Brown is notorious for his stretch as football coach at Auburn, where he went 3–22–4, including a record of 0–10 in his final season, when the Tigers were outscored 285–31. Brown's first season as the head coach at Auburn was also the first season Auburn and the Alabama met on the gridiron since 1907; Auburn lost, 55–0.

One title run. 1 win over Alabama in multiple years, 2 loses to Texas A&M, one playoff appearance, one Title IX investigation, possibly covered up rape, hiring more shitty assistants than good ones, embarrassing the program on social media, inability to manage a program, and of course having possibly the worst season in LSU history. These problems didn’t just occur this year. Like I said, it’s my opinion. You have a different one. Both can valid.

But looking around the SEC my vote goes to John L Smith.

Any guy who retires owing $40-million in bad
real estate ventures---with an 83-73 record as head
& 1 out of 6 bowl games--informs his Louisville team
at halftime he's leaving for another school---
and manages to make the Idaho Sports Hall of Fame,
gets my vote.

Same can be said for Saban's first three years.

No proof of any of this, O isn't even implicated in any of those allegations.

Yet Saban showed he can manage and sustain a program. Ed? Not so much.

Happened on his watch and just reading the Tiger Rant shows he is bearing the blame on that. It’s a possibility that is going to get him fired. I stand by all I said. Again, it’s my opinion. You are expending a lot of energy on this for some reason. It all good

I know expectations aren’t high for Kentucky football, but you gotta have Hal Mumme on the list, right?

Tiger Rant is chock full of retards, nothing in the allegations even remotely implicates a cover up by O.

The Guice incidents didnt even happen while he was the head coach and all of the other rape allegations were either proven to be false or those players were kicked off/left the team.

All these people mentioning John L Smith like he wasn't a temporary emergency hire, basically an interim coach that lasted a season. He was never truly the coach, just the guy they stuck in the position after looking around and thinking "shite, we need SOMEONE to pretend to be head coach for a season."

Any list that doesn't include Chad Morris is incorrect. Look at what Pittman has come in and done with no offseason, no OOC tune-ups, and most of the same players, really even LESS talent than Morris had last year. Morris lost to the directional school cupcakes on our schedule, Pittman has won 4 SEC games out of 9 his first season.

You can’t be on the all time worst list if you won an SEC or National Championship.
