The 2004 Dolphins may not win a game…

Everybody knows who the greatest coach of all times is, and everybody knows that everyone who disagrees is wrong.
But let me give you my list.
Let me give you a list that does not include Vince Lombardi. Let me give you a list that does not include Mike Krzyzewski. Let me give you a list that does not include Paul Bear Bryant.
Let me give you the 5 best head coaches that are forgotten when talking about the all-time greats.
These guys are all legends. If I ask you if they were great, you’d say hell yes. But you would not think of them off the top of your head.
I shed a tear for the Cubs fans, but what about the other 21 teams who missed the playoffs?
The Gators hopes of salvaging the lost season go through Jacksonville and their showdown with the Bulldogs, but that is only the beginning of the start.
Defending the BCS to the best of my ability.
Yes, you read the title correctly. No, I am not high (I think). My goal is to defend the BCS, a crime so serious that if I lived in Texas I would get lethal injection. In California, I’d get mobbed and beaten and bruised up by all the USC fans. Even West Virginia and Louisiana hold their grudges for Marshall and Tulane, both of whom ran the table, and played in the Motor City Bowl and Liberty Bowl respectively.
Over the last few decades, the best young and innovative head coaches have migrated from the consistency of the college ranks to the unpredictability of professional football.
If you want more than 10, just ask me. I’ll give you an encyclopedia.
