Don't know ### Richt did to get Top 8 either...and I'd be pissed if I was rated behind Tommy West, that guy was just complete garbage

Must be cause I can’t think of another reason.

I agree with the top three as is, but I have to put all of these guys ahead of T Bowden:
Ritch
O’Leary
Paul Johnson
O’Brien
Jagodinski
Fedora (won a division title at UNC)
Grobe
Mendenhal
Coker (Bash him if you want he has a national title)
That puts TB 12th at best I’ve probably forgotten somebody

There would be no Dabo in the ACC if not for Tommy Bowden, I’d move him up to 2nd with my orange lenses.

I would have added Mack Brown ahead of Cutcliffe and even had Bronco ahead of him - sure his original date 1988 or something but he has since been (re)hired and then you could backport to 1992 and onward wins. If it wasn't for Bowden, he might have won something during his first stint.
Plus I know Jimbo won a NC but lets see how long it takes for FSU to do anything. He might have done what Spurrier, Urban, Zook and a handful of dubious Miami coaches with NCAA immunity could not do... bury the 'noles. Jimbo might be added as #2 and #50 of 49 coaches.

Why'd they have to go all the way back to when Dabo won a national title AS A PLAYER!?!? Dabo wasn't even in the league (played/coached at Alabama in the SEC) but it's been this down for this long that it's unavoidable?
I know I'm probably a little off-topic, but I can't stand how bad the league has become. We deserve better opportunities, in my opinion. This article/list above just kinda stung to read how far we have to go back for competitive history I guess.
