Best Coach in the Nation?

Is it Gary Patterson? I'm not sure if this has been discussed on the board as I just joined but what he has done at TCU is incredible. He is the best coach in the nation IMO. He is a great motivator, his teams execute flawlessly, and his schemes are great.

TCU runs the spread offense that we should be running. They spread defenses out horizontally with their formations and dictate/diagnose coverages with their pre-snap motion but then, at the snap of the ball, they attack the field vertically! They are based upon the zone read (best play in college football IMO) but have added multiple wrinkles to it to turn it into a power running attack out of the spread.

Their defense is the perfect kind of defense to stop the spread. The 3-3-5 he runs is similar to Buddy Ryan's 4-6 bear but with extra safeties instead of extra OLBs. He's adapted a brilliant scheme from the past to today's style of play that is more wide open.

I really think (if I'm Notre Dame) that I go to Urban Meyer with a blank check and then to Patterson if I'm shot down. The guy is 11-3 in his last 14 games against teams from BCS conferences and that's with Texas', Oklahoma's, Texas A&M's, Nebraska's, LSU's, and Texas Tech's rejects for players. Seriously, the guy is competing with Houston and Baylor for recruits.

Someone from a big school is gonna give this guy a shot and he's gonna be the next Urban Meyer if not better. I've always been a big fan of coaches from smaller schools who had to outscheme and outexecute teams to beat them. IF Miles did leave (and this thread wasn't meant to voice any disdain for the job he's done here) then there's no one else I'd want over Patterson.

Well that's all I got for now. Is this the right board for this kind of stuff? It's not really about a coaching change and it somewhat involves LSU since it talks about one of the best coaches so I wasn't sure where it should be posted. Sorry in advance if it's on the wrong board! Geaux Tigers!
