    This list makes me ask again, is Rivals run by a Bama grad??

    They sure seem to have a pretty strong Bama bias.

    Yes Rivals is very "Bama" bias. I believe the guy running it is a Bama grad. Hence the #1 ranking almost every year in recruiting even though most of the other services dont have them #1 or one even in the top 5.

    Its like saying MSNBC is a "Little left"

    I agree. Saban is not a dynamic speaker in the least. He always sounds bored & irritated when interviewed.

    Miles is not a smooth-talker, but he is passionate when he talks. In my opinion, that makes him better. He seems to mean what he says, although with regards to injuries, he's never going to say anything.

    Y'all can't be taking this list seriously can you. It's obviously full of agenda and bias.

    Kiffen...Omitted from this list, not even above Skip Holtz? :huh:

    His pedigree alone should have propelled him to a God like top 10

    Let's see, all the BCS title winning coaches are ranked #1, #2, #3, #4, # 6 . . . and #28.

    What am I missing here?

    yeah because the last 4 years of 11-1, 9-4, 9-4, 11-2 sucks. but since the media wrote him off 5 years ago and he has since proved them to be idiots, they now have to chirp its not him coaching in order to save face.

    and the rest of the lemmings follow along.

    from his crappy list, i made my top ten


    1. Urban Meyer, Florida. Two BCS titles in three seasons, with another in his sights.

    10. Mark Richt, Georgia. a team in the SEC needs to catch breaks to get to the BCS title game. Meyer, Miles and Saban have gotten breaks, Richt hasnt.

    3. Nick Saban, Alabama. Brought LSU back. Bama hype is premature.

    2. Bob Stoops, Oklahoma. cant be any higher with all those BCS chokes

    4. Pete Carroll, USC. brought the storied program back, but has it easy in the P10 and only has one crystal.

    6. Mack Brown, Texas. better coaches would win more at this big name school in a two horse conference

    28. Les Miles, LSU. didnt win at OSU and, relative to the above, has not won at LSU long enough.

    13. Jim Tressel, Ohio State. Cant ignore the BCS title game shellacings

    11. Rich Rodriguez, Michigan.

    30. Paul Johnson, Georgia Tech.
