Got my fingers crossed that when they re-do this list in 20 - 25 years Muschamp will be near the top.
Do you really want Muschamp near the top? Okay I was trolling for JT comments!

Scotty Bowman and Eddie Robinson are too low along with Knute Rockne too high!
Got that right! And where the hell is coach Frank Leahy on this list ?!
He started his coaching career at Boston College 1939/40,, went 20-2 with a Sugar bowl win.
From there he went back home to coach Notre Dame,, his record at ND--
1941,8-0-1,,,,
1942,7-7-2,,,,
1943,9-1 (NC),,
1944-45- joined the Navy to fight the fight...
1946,8-0-1 (NC),,
1947,9-0 (NC),,
1948, 9-0-1,,,
1949, 10-0 (NC)...
1950,4-4-1,,,
1951,7-2-1,,,
1952, 7-2-1,,,
1953, 9-0-1..
While at ND he went 87-11-9,, total,107-13-9..He has the 2nd highest winning percentage in NCAA Division 1 football history. Second only to the great Knute Rockne.

Any current college football coaches who could make this list in the future? Or any other sport if you would like.
Current coaches that may sneak in this list-Saban, Meyer, Peterson, Patterson (if they continue to produce).
IMHO Osborne was ranked a bit too low. With all the disadvantages you have at NEB vs schools in more populated areas with better recruiting prospects what he did was amazing- over a long period of time too.

Its because on this list he didn't coach long enough I bet.
Oh, and in other sports Knight is way too high. His on court achievements were not that spectacular and the dude has been a 3 year-old for over 40 years...
Cael Sanderson has a good shot at being on this list.

I'd put Coach Saban right below Bill Walsh at this point.

And I'd move both Bill Walsh and Coach Saban above Bobby Bowden.

Gotta laugh....
Connie Mack at 28?
The guy actually had an overall losing record as a baseball manager.
Since this thread is back up, would add that Meyer is looking better. How many dudes have gone undefeated at 2 schools (Utah, tOSU) while also having the kind of success he had at UF?

Yeah, he deserves to be there somewhere. Also Rod Dedeaux, the Trojan baseball version of John Wooden.
From his Wiki: "winningest coach in college baseball history and with a record of 1,332-571-11 (.699), and for the rest of his life remained a beloved annual presence at the College World Series in Omaha, Nebraska. He was inducted into the American Baseball Coaches Association's Hall of Fame in 1970, and in 1999 was named the Coach of the Century by Collegiate Baseball magazine." ..."Prior to his retirement in 1986, Dedeaux's teams won 10 additional CWS titles ??? no other coach won more than 3 until 1997 ??? including five consecutively (1970???74)." He had 11 if you count 1948, a year he was co-HC with Sam Barry. And he developed as many greats in his sport as Wooden did in Basketball.
Just think he belongs...
