Elko has that blue collar persona but also is one of if not the smartest guy on that list.

Would love to play a round of golf at Carter Plantation w/Kelly, Beamer and Napier.

Why is Sam so likeable? I’m sure he’s a good guy but I’ve never seen anything that he’s gone above and beyond that makes him likeable and hes not a good head coach.


He’s gotta be likeable because he’s not a good head coach. How else is he not getting fired?

Sorry LSU fans, he just seems like a prick. I could be wrong.


No offense taken. He may be an arse but he is my arse! I hated him when he was at ND but largely because I hate ND.

If you listen to him he is often correct on what he is saying but he comes across edgy in saying it.

I can see how Kiffin could be unlikeable for some, based on his trolling.

Drinkwitz as well, in isolated incidents. He seems like a try hard.

None of the other guys really move the needle for me though.

Kiffin and Drink strike me as affable aholes, whereas Kelly just strikes me as an all around dick

Other than Kelly, there is nobody I think I'd genuinely dislike. Kirby seems like he'd be too high strung to be agreeable, but that's probably true for all of them to some extent. To have any success over the long term in this era, you have to be myopic and narcissistic, even if you'd probably end up a pretty likable dude a few years out of the game, IMO.

I don't really get the hate for Kelly, I assume most is extending from his time at Notre Dame. He didn't really move the needle for me there.

He doesn't really talk shite to other teams, what's the problem?

My only change would be to move Shane Beamer down between Drinkwitz and Kelly. Otherwise it is ordered pretty well.



Still trying to get the real story whether he absolutely lost his marbles during the bowl game or whether ol BB really pulled a shady move to warrant the anger.

Based on what I saw during his time at Arky, I lean towards BB instigating

Sam Pittman is a good Oklahoma boy. I vote for him.

He's a real player's coach, too. The kids who play for him would run through a wall for him.

Kelly is not that bad, it’s just that he came across as very fake - with the fake southern accent and recruit grinding/dancing and platform sneakers. Maybe a little insecure. He’s probably an alright guy in person.

Drinkwitz and Kiffin are the ones that come across as douchebags.

Pittman is likeable because most people relate to mediocrity.
