I'm not saying that DeBoer and Lanning aren't top 10 coaches, but to have them at #2 and #3 is laughable.

Lanning yes, Deboer maybe not. How many active coaches have played for a NC?

Ryan Day is really the one being undersold here

only #1 and #4 have hardware to show.

#4 IMO is letting the game pass him by (NIL)


saban leaving the game sure has created a big vacuum....

why is Whittingham above CBK exactly? Pretty sure he doesn’t have a Playoff appearance.

Whittingham is a damn good coach, I’d argue he’s a top 5 coach in this league. Consistently does more with less

Dabo of today shouldn’t be anywhere near top 10. Yes if it’s a lifetime achievement list. You can’t be a top ten coach who doesn’t use the portal or NIL effectively.

Legit question, why do you say this? Who all would you put above them and why?

Recency bias + they have very high winning % s.

Anyone who has DeBust over Kelly needs to be put in an institution. Dude has only two years of P5 HC experience and four of FBS. He was the OC at Indiana the year Burrow won us a championship

So he took Washington to the championship? So did Sonny Dykes.

The only reason he’s ranked in the top 5 is because Bama hired him. Don’t believe me? Look at lists from a year ago. He was universally ranked outside the top 20

Kelly for starters and it’s not because he coaches at LSU.

Go up two posts. Malfoy sums it up perfectly.

You are going to look stupid for shitting on deboer.

Of course he is going to be ranked higher than years ago. He has Saban's bama talent and recruiting behind him. He is also coming off of a national championship game appearance.

So it’s strictly because he hasn’t coached for as long? Because that’s the only thing that BK has done that DeBoer hasn’t. In 2018 would you say that Les Miles is a better coach than Kirby Smart?

I also don’t get calling DeBoer a bust

What are the lottery numbers? So did Sonny Dykes. Chris Petersen took Washington to the playoffs too.

Go review Washington’s schedule last year. They had seven games they won by a TD or less. They EASILY could have been 8-4.

What are you basing that opinion on? Just vibes or something?
