I see your Charlie Strong and raise you:

Willie Taggart.

Napier has made Florida less than a shell of their former self. Florida gator football is just nothing anymore

Mel Tucker at Michigan State wasn't exactly outstanding.

I think Houston Nutt was a horrible hire at Ole Miss. Lazy hire by a shitty AD. Sure, Houston had a couple of good years with Orgeron's talent, but when that cupboard starting getting bare, it got real bad. It made Steve Sloan look like Bear Bryant towards the end.

This is the correct answer. Nothing else comes close.

It still remains Notre Dame with Gerry Faust. Whoever decided to give the premier college football program at the time to a HS coach should have had their head examined.

But in the 21st century? It's either Morris or Taggart at Florida State. Both were questionable from the get go and the results were horrible.

But nothing will ever compare to Faust.

Mike Price at Alabama never coached a game before he got fired so that has to be pretty high on the list.


So, ended a career undefeated, and now a VP candidate. Impressive

Jimbo by far the worst contract in CFB history.


Looks like Kelly may be the 2nd worst.

Both Woodward doings.

I still think Muschamp was worse but ole Billy is by far the most disappointing UF hire.
