I agree with Neely, Kitts, and Hatfield. Heisman and Conover did well for not having much to work with. Goldsmith was also good. i so not want to discuss the bad coaches.

Had some really fun years, but also an era where admin support continued to decline when the opposite was needed. He had some great/solid years everywhere he went. And let's not forget that he recruited the key players on the 2006 and 2008 teams including arguably two of the best offensive players in Rice history, or on the very short list.

I’d say Jess, then Jimmy Kitts, then Ken. Just out of curiosity what would be your top three ranking? PS Happy Thanksgiving.
