Murray definitely. Davis at least won one conference title.

Dude gave me -3 for "being a troll" and then proceeded to follow me around in threads and troll me. It seemed like his hypocrisy needed to be highlighted.

You are all over every thread at the moment. I don't think anyone is following you.

some are ignoring

I'm still going with Dr. Hilyer until I see a little more of Clark's body of work.

So far, so good though.

My vote. The next five games will really tell a lot on how close we are to taking the next big step.

4. Watson Brown...took us to our only bowl
5. Garrick McGee...the party when he left was bigger than when he came

Agreed. +1

Also agree except I think the last two are in a tie for last. Only because Brown and McGee both thought they were the best thing since sliced bread.

1) Hilyer
2) Clark (Resume Incomplete)
3) Brown
4) McGee
5) Callaway

I favor McGee over Callaway for one simple reason... He had the decency to walk away. We may not have liked how, but at least he did. He could get another job. He was hired using the the good ole boy network and Callaway used back channels to keep his job until the program sunk to new lows.

I would rate toe fungus higher than McGee or Callaway.

And I would reverse McGee and Callaway. Callaway was forced upon us; he was not chosen. And as bad as he was, I think he tried his best. We picked McGee of our own free will -- and didn't realize what a snow job he had pulled on everyone until last season was about half over. All his tenure at UAB did was guarantee no other school will ever be saddled with him as a head coach again.

I had Callaway at the top of my list, but it's very hard to overlook McGee after his brief tenure at UAB.
