Another offseason Top 25 list about this millennium. Peterman is #10 and the highest ranked coach who didn't win a national championship. I thought it was on3's list at first, but it's The Athletic, which makes sense because on3 would have Lanning like #8. Got me thinking about wondering if Pettisman would have jumped to the UW job earlier if Sark left earlier. Solid list though "just don't crash the Ferrari" guys like Day and Linc Riley are probably too high.

People that respect Kyle Whittingham on that level are such fags. All the old conference cheerleaders loved putting him ahead of Leach.
Whittingham seems like a mostly JAG coach to me. Was in a great spot at Utah and went 65-48 in Pac-12 play while being in the soft South Division. What Leach was able to do at WSU is more impressive to me, even if he never won a division.
Utah will always be a glorified Beaver team
Whittingham got lucky in 2022 because Beav kicked USC's ass so badly the year before that Jonathon Smith wouldn't go away from his quarterback that was turning it over 4+ times a game.
The other two seasons around 2022, he got absolutely skull fucked in Corvallis.
Was listening to a local radio segment covering this and now I'm convinced that nobody can touch Pete Carrol if you factor in the time taken to achieve everything. 9 years is insane.
It's a good point of how damn impressive Carroll's run in college and pro was. I'm trying to think of who is even comparable? Harbaugh. That might be just about it.
Pete went 6-6 year 1 and even lost to Rick
And then
With a 12 team playoff he's there at least 7 times. Probably 7 for a 4 team
The Pac 12 champion had to be unbeaten to make the 2 team
These list are trash, how do you leave off the guy with 1.000 win percentage? Tui #1.
They did the anonymous comparison of resume's with Urban's. The difference was mainly that Pete lost the 2005 championship but Urban needed like 20 years.
In a 4 team or 12 team playoff, USC from 2002 to 2005 goes:
2002: Miami was the best team but lost to Tressel; USC could have been the best team at the EOY. Possible title
2003: title
2004: title
2005: coin toss vs Young
I'll go to my grave saying 05 USC usually beats that Texas team. 06-08 would have been interesting too. They weren't as good as the earlier USC teams, but 06 and 08 would have been interesting probably making to the final against Urb's Florida and then 07 USC was super flawed but that was the most wide open year in college football history so they could have easily won it all.
Chip Kelly at 24? JTFC that’s some bull shit.
You've become a doog moron.
You're saying Pete did more with more?
I thought he should be top 10 you ding Dong @dtd . Read my post again.
Jimmy Johnson had a pretty good run in both. Turned the Cowboys around from a laffing stock to a dynasty.
I'm assuming they are averaging their performance at all the schools listed. Chip's run at UCLA was underwhelming to say the least. Oregon stand-alone? He's easily T10. He forced rule changes and had Nick Saban whining about football not being safe for the kids. Lolz. That doesn't happen every day.
The one thing I recall about the '05 team was that they were a little light in the loafers on defense. I have always thought more was made of that game as some kind of historical clash of juggernauts than was deserved. I can think of many, many cfb teams over the years that would have throttled both of those teams. But I think a lot of that had to do with America's love of iconic things, and in American Texas and football are two things that go together, and the collective we could never make sense of Texas not being a king in cfb. When Mack finally got the 'horns to the natty, it was a fucking story Americans wanted to lap up. Couple that with going against the beautiful people in LA and it was a media blitz ahead of its time. A game that today would generate Instagram shorts and memes. The truth is that Texas had a once-in-a-lifetime QB that did things that college defenses weren't great at defending back then and SC wasn't elite on defense that year. I think 5th round LB Dallas Sartz was their best defender. Maybe Darnell Bing. IDK. Who cares. I'm rambling. Whatever.

That and Lincoln Riley?!? Doing less with more.
