If you could pick 12 coaches... - Fighting Muskie - 01-05-2020 03:33 PM If you could pick 12 head coaches to coach against each other in a dream conference who would you pick? You can do a list of active coaches or a historic, all time list RE: If you could pick 12 coaches... - Kaplony - 01-05-2020 03:50 PM If the talent were equal, and using coaches who were active in the 2019-20 season only: Using the Mississippi River as the dividing line East Division Saban Swinney Franklin Chryst Mullen Clawson West Division Fisher Patterson Peterson Ferentz Harsin Leech I think it would be interesting to see what outstanding coaches like Harsin, Ferentz, and Clawson could do with equal talent. RE: If you could pick 12 coaches... - Garrettabc - 01-05-2020 03:58 PM Woody. Hayes, Steve Spurrier, Mike Gundy, Mike Leach, John Heisman, Bobby Bowden, Lou Holts, Howard Schnellenberger, Jim Caldwell, Dennis Green, Herm Edwards, Lane Kiffin. Cancel the football game, sell tickets to the press conference.

Definitely need Dana Bible in the honorable mention. He built programs at Texas A&M, Nebraska and Texas, going 198-72-23 and that included rebuilding Texas with a 3-14-1 start. I'd also include Howard Schnellenberger in honorable mention with the way he built Miami (FL) and Louisville.

It is why I only took two Notre Dame coaches so Rockne was going to be in my first grouping. I took Parseghian for that 60's time frame. It is also why I have Saban listed with L.S.U. instead of Alabama. RE: If you could pick 12 coaches... - OdinFrigg - 01-08-2020 01:59 PM What? No Charlie Weis on anyone's list?

Last time they went. John Mackovic was a GA in the mid 50s, probably the last one from the Sid Gillam/Woody/Bo era to be a head coach. Took Illinois to the Rose Bowl. Also won SWC and Big 12 at Texas, taking Texas to the Sugar and Fiesta Bowls.

His offenses where very successful with mostly FCS and 2* and 3* prospects. What would he have done with elite recruits. He'd need a quality DC too.

(But I'd also likely have Big John Merritt of TSU, too, as I appreciate what the HBCUs did back in the day.) |
