| Athlon Ranks the SEC Coaches (Posted on 4/4/12 at 7:19 pm)
I don't know why I let articles like this bother me. I guess it is the complete disrespect for our coach, Les Miles. I wonder how much this list changes after this year.

Miles is considered a top 2 coach in the nation, yet he's 6th in the SEC?

I don't have problem with Saban, Richt or Petrino even. Spurrier is showing some life. But Mullen?

Miles is a great recruiter but very average coach. But in College recruiting is 80-85% of the game

Miles is ranked so low because he IS winning with Sabans recruits!

Richt is even worse than Mullen. UGA is in a state with more instate talent and a larger population and has won the SEC twice (same as Miles) and has no NC appearances to Miles 2. Richt only went to the CG this year because he lucked out and missed us Bama and Arky. Richt is the epitome of doing less with more. He had AJ Green Stafford and Knowshon Moreno on one team and did nothing with them. Not even an SEC championship game appearance.

Miles at #9
As the old bank teller said in Raising Arizona, "Ah, bull shite."

I'll take the #6 coach and a pre-season #1 ranking any day and I think Miles would also.

My alma mater is Moo State, and I think Mullen over Miles is ridiculous.

Saban obviously, Petrino sure, but Richt? Look, I like Mark Richt and think he's a really good coach, but come on, he's got wht 2 SEC titles? I think UGA's a bit of an underachiever as well. shite loads of talent in the state, they should do better?

I think Muschamp and Dooley are a little low on that list as well. Both have more hardware then some of the guys above them.
If you are going by what they've done in the SEC then Sumlin, Pinkel, and Freeze should be on the bottom.
Ultimately Saban is on top. 3 National Championships as Head Coach. 1 at LSU and 2 at Alabama.

Who has brought his team to the SECCG more than Miles the last 7 years? 3 times!!! 2 titles!
Which is almost 50%...in fact I think LSU gets to Atlanta again this year..making it 4 trips in 8 seasons...4 of these seasons LSU hasn't really had strong QB play
Who has won more BCS games? Wasn't Bobby, Wasn't Richt, Wasn't anyone on that List except Saban and only because he was gifted a rematch.
Only Saban can match Miles in number of trips to the MNC game the last 7 years.
Stupid list! Based on mis-information
After we beat Alabama this year, that will be 3 years in a row LSU has defeated the Tide/Saban
List stinks!

what I find laughable about the whole article is that it all hinges on Jan 9th. Had LSU won it litteraly would be a whole different story.
