re: Name your Top Ten LSU coaches (all sports) of all time

I would put Paul Dietzel in the top 10. Any coach that wins a football NC should be in the top 10, his record at LSU was very good overall as well.

So my top 10 all time

1) Bertman (5 NC's)
2) Ed (best season in the history of both LSU and CFB)
3) Saban (2 SEC and 1 NC)
4) Dietzel (2 SEC and 1 NC)
5) Miles (2 SEC and 1 NC)
6) Dale Brown (2 Final Fours, 2 other Elite 8 appearances)
7) Bill Arnsparger (2 SEC titles in 3 years as LSU coach)
8) DD Breaux (no NC's but Close to winning it several times)
9) Cholly Mac (1 SEC title but 70% all-time win %)
10) Will Wade (if he stays here a long time, will be best Basketball coach in history of LSU


Honorable mention, Bernie Moore won 2 SEC titles but could not win Sugar Bowl (0-3) won the Orange in WW2 years and tied the Cotton bowl so 1-3-1 Bowl record is what does not put him where Mac is at 9. Mac actually won some of the big bowl games. MAC was 7-6 in bowl games and won 2 Sugar bowls and 2 Cotton bowls.
