ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 เม.ย. 2022
- College Football coaching hires and hot seat talk have become a staple of the overall conversation surrounding the sport, and on Late Kick Live Ep 255 Josh Pate responded to a viewer question asking which head coaching hires he thought were the absolute worst over the past decade. The runaway winner has to be Chad Morris at Arkansas as the Razorbacks fell to the likes of Western Kentucky, San Jose State, Colorado State, Vanderbilt, and North Texas all within a 2 year span. Willie Taggart also gets serious consideration for his brief but very underwhelming stint at FSU even with the ACC being down at the time. Josh also discusses the Les Miles hire at Kansas and how it failed to stand out versus anything else KU has done recently. Also, we get a surprise Southern Miss mention on the show but for all the wrong reasons. What do you think is the worst head coaching hire in College Football over the last decade?

Chad Morris gets another chance at Auburn when his good friend Gus gets him hired him as OC and then he gets them both fired.
That was a rough way to end my 4 years of college at Arkansas. I watched the fall of Bielema and the entire Chad Morris era.
@@jayhawgs9036 I remember being super excited with Bielema because he did seem like a decent coach who the players loved. You're right though after that Belk Bowl loss, everything started to go downhill. The Hogs are in good hands with Pittman now though!
I mean it was a great hire at the time. Strange he was 'that' bad, but it was a home run hire in real time.
Lol, yeah, at least I was there for the '14 and '15 seasons. I was still finishing up in '18 and I remember watching the Pig Trail preseason report. Tera Talmadge was about to cry over to the side, Alyssa Orange freaking out cause Morris said they were on track and she said they looked like the worst team she'd every watched practice, and poor Mike Irwin was trying to calm them down. So, I passed on my season access pass that year, best purchasing decision I ever made. Watched them struggle and cheese out a win against a bad FCS team week 1, knew they were done.
Same. I was there from 15-19 and the energy on saturdays during Morris's tenure was just depressing. Especially his 2nd season. Everybody knew we weren't winning more than 3 games that year, the team lost faith in him, and the life got sucked right out of the stadium. Went back last year for the Texas game and it was night and day. The fans were buzzing, everyone was bought in, the team was flying around the field. Pittman's really pumped life back into the team and the fan base. Made it fun to be a hog on Saturdays again.
As a lifelong Razorback, I'm sorry you went through that 😬
Chad Morris is the absolute worst coaching hire in NCAA history. He absolutely destroyed the Arkansas football program for his few years in charge.
Few years??? Dude was there for 1 3/4 seasons and that’s all it took to completely demolish an SEC west football program that’s how bad he was
@@muchduck3754 I know lol. It was horrible. I still have nightmares.
You misspelled Petrino. Arkansas is already back from Morris’s tenure. They’ve never recovered from Petrino.
@@lynnerose7891 Petrino was a great coach had us at #3 at one point, one win away from a national championship appearance, and nearly beat a Bama team coached by Nick Saban he may not have been a good person but you have to give credit where it’s due
@@lynnerose7891 Beliema was the reason we got worse…
Its hilarious as an Oregon fan to think back at how disappointed I was that Taggart was leaving us after 1 season. Turned out losing that snake oil salesman was the best thing to ever happen
The Ducks certainly got the better end of that deal. We got Willy's "Lethal Stupidity," and despite his release, the school still has to pay him to coach somewhere else. So glad he's gone!
Yeah you guys got lucky he was Willingham 2.0
Slick Willy is probably still getting paid by Oregon and FSU, maybe he’s smarter than he gets credit for 🤦🏻♂️
@@seminolefantodd4736 but y’all are quick to support notvell lol joke
He's in the process of undoing everything Lane Kiffin built at FAU.
Chad Morris: We have to rebuild, we need to get better players.
Sam Pittman: All we need is who is on the plane.
And that, in a nutshell, is why Morris was so bad and why Pittman has the whole state eating from his hand.
Jesus loves you
Kevin Sumlin has to be an honorable mention at Arizona right? That guy's fall from grace is astounding
Maybe the only double bad hire that should have been on the list. Bad voodoo in both A&M’s and UA’s locker rooms. As a guy from UofHouston, all I can do is say thanks for getting him off our campus.
Sumlin's claim to fame was having Manziel at Texas A&M. After that, he couldn't recruit .
@@hotdogsruleable i mean he recruited Myles Garrett, Speedy Noil, Kyler Murray, and Kyle Allen. He was pretty toxic in the locker room apparently tho
@@paulsbunions8441 unfortunately for A&M, he was losing 4&5 star quarterbacks as fast as he was signing them.
Sumlibe recruited the top 2 Arizona kids year over year before hiring. So it was a hire for recruiting. Kirk and Allen I think we're the players.... Dunkin didn't have the staff. Turns out his OC during 2012 was pretty good enought to become an NFL head coach.
Jeremy Pruitt was part of a dark period that Tennessee fans don't talk about
And Derek Dooley.
Sometimes bad things or should I say horrific things need to happen for before resilience pays off.
Basically, everyone after Fulmer except hopefully UT's current coach.
And brick by brick butch jones
We got a few stinkers in a row. Jeremy Pruitt was the rotten cherry on top.
Always love your content and I appreciate the Fort Smith, AR shoutout!!
That’s awesome you mentioned fort smith that’s my hometown. I also went to the SW Classic game & not only were the players in shock & tears but I didn’t see one Razorback fan who wasn’t YELLING WPS. A&M fans were happy for us. That was the best Arkansas game I’ve ever been to without doubt. Wouldn’t trade a day now with king Sam. We have a hell of a team, coaching staff & in my opinion, definitely the most loyal fans in college football. Love your content man!
Cant believe no one has mentioned Paul Pasqualoni, but maybe that kinda proves my point lol. The only thing worse in sports than being a laughing stock is being irrelevant, he drove UConn there. Pasqualoni took a team that was raked and made an appearance in the 2011 Fiesta Bowl and gave them two 5-7 seasons. He was fired after 4 straight loses in 2013, including an unforgiveable loss to FCS Townson. That losing streak was actually in the middle of 10 game losing streak starting from 2012. College football is cyclical and never say never, but Pasqualoni may have killed UConn football forever.
You should have mentioned that literally TWO of these hires were made by the same AD. 😂 Jeff Long ruined many things for Arkansas football. One of them being the horrid, front facing Hog. Changed our “rivalry” game too. Chad Morris, John L. Smith, Bret Beilema. Those names tell you everything you didn’t need to know about that guy. Jeff Long needs a new career path. He’s abysmal. Thank the Lord Jesus for Hunter Yurachek. 🐗
beilema had a great start to his tenure at arkansas lol. dude always fielded a competitive team
@@chetbeasley he fielded a competitive team FOR THE MOST PART. Not always. But also part of coaching is recruiting & he literally didn’t do that at all.
@@imjustkidding5978 Truth. His best "recruit" was his bride. He also lacked the ties to the natural recruiting areas for the Hogs. It's imperative that the Razorbacks recruit the whole SEC footprint with emphasis on Texas and Louisiana. We occasionally have good to great skill players in state, but lack the big boys up front to win consistently. Our weakness going into the coming season is DL. The big guys with 5.0 an under speed are freaks of nature and very rare, but can be found in all of the top tier SEC teams and, if the Razorbacks wish to join them, we will need big fast linemen. A cursory viewing of the Arkansas vs. Georgia game last year quickly becomes a case in point. The portal helped us last year maybe it will again this year.
John L. Smith was intended to be exactly what he was: a transitional coach.
Jeff Long didn’t hire Chad Morris at Arkansas. He was fired just before Beilema was fired.
Taggert's flame out is still the most surprising one to me, especially how bad it got. He did a good job rebuilding Western Kentucky from abysmal to mediocre, he assembled a lot of the talent Petrino and Brohm would win with later. Then he goes to USF and after a few down years builds that program up to be respectable and has a good season. Was only at Oregon for a year but they played better their one year under him. He had a good track record, goes to FSU and completely collapses. Just amazes me how bad it was under him and how he went from building up programs to utter collapse. Peter Principle in full with him.
Taggert never should have gotten that job in Tallahassee.
From what I hear, he got his dream job and kicked his feet up. Got complacent. I guess he thought a blue chip program would run itself.
@@keithconnell8460 Oregon dodged a bullet and got the better end of the deal by inheriting Cristobal from his staff.
Football does have a little bit of luck behind it, so if you're good in one college but not in all the rest, then he was lucky....not good
@@_baller very true but you usually don't get lucky in two different programs that were both down like when he took over Western Kentucky and USF, that requires a good level of competence to do it in two different places and that's why his downfall to me is the most flummoxing. It's not that he failed at FSU that surprises me, that's not surprising at all, it's that it was a situation he had been in on three separate situations, had done a good job in two, Oregon he did fine but only one season so hard to give him too much credit, then collapsed in less than two years at FSU. Usually we see someone do well in a group of 5 conference, move up to the Power 5 and after 3-4 years fail then get fired. With him he did a good job in three different programs, one a power 5 program, and just melted down entirely. I can't recall someone similar to his situation, it's as though he just suddenly completely forgot how to coach and build a program.
Morris couldn't have screwed up Arkansas any more if he tried.
Willie Taggart period!
@@damienadams8424 Morris couldn't even get his teams to look like they even played the sport. His own wife wouldn't come to witness that mess, she stayed in dallas.
@@lupindeweir I'll be completely honest, I really believe that was something that really hurt him as our coach. I believe he spent too much time traveling back and forth to see his son play instead of getting our players ready for their game.
@@lupindeweir Mississippi St has been to bowl games since Morris. Fsu still trying to fix Willie's mess. Imagine watching warm ups before a game and players kicking fg or not having booked the space needed for a walk through and having to do it at a hotel before the Notre Dame game. Look at FAU!
@@damienadams8424 Yes, but I didn't have to suffer through Willie T. If Norvell gets the time you should be OK.
Before long, you'll need to add Bryan Harsin & Auburn to this list!
He was bad, but not nearly as bad as those 4.
Jimbo, the previous admin and Willie collectively ran FSU into the ground and Norvell was hired to clean it up.
Exactly some of the fault does lay with Jimbo in what happened with Willie but I think Norvell is doing a good job cleaning it up..
Love the Fort Smith, AR shoutout! Great video as always 😁
The University of Minnesota hired Tim Brewster. Look at the success of Glen Mason and players like Marion Barber & Laurence Maroney and now PJ Fleck.
Morris was terrible, but the disorganization and lack of structure of Taggert is 2nd to none.
He's a snake oil salesmen
@@jameservin1333 how was Taggart a worse hire than Norvell🤔 Nearly identical records after two years
@@AlmightyMauMau This conversation has been had many times, and it is flat out insane. The difference in the program that Taggart took over, vs what Norvel walked into is incredibly vast. Go look at the roster that took the field vs VT in Taggart's first game vs the roster that Norvel had vs GT. The Taggart led Noles looked as bad and were making the same mistakes his last game as they did in their first game under him, vs the evident progress made under Norvel. Look at last season, as bad some moments were, and much work these is still to be done, you add a heathy Jordan Travis, and of their losses only the Clemson and Wake Forest games I'm certain remain as defeats. Doesn't mean they'd been 10-2 by any means, but certainly won a at least 2 or 3 more than they did.
@@fsupenguin After Jimbo BCS run FSU got worse each year until they bottomed out at 5-6 and he bolted. His last three years were full of inconsistent qb play and a terrible defense. Sound familiar?( Go look up the stats yourself). Taggart inherited this mess. Jimbo clearly didn’t develop his stellar recruiting classes/ bad evaluations and that’s why he went 5-6 his final year.This is what Taggart inherited and he was only given 2 years!! Gtfoh
@@AlmightyMauMau Jimbo won 13, 10, 10, and then had the trash year that he bolted. The roster was not by any means destroyed, terrible moral for sure, and several busts at QB. Never said Taggart was given an ideal situation. If the program was a car, what he was given had been neglected, needed general service and body work done to it, but still ran. What Taggart did, was run directly it off the road and crash it. The countless false start penalties, no growth or improvement on defense of any kind, and offense that would have been an embarrassment to a JV squad and would have been even worse had they not had Tamorian Terry. If you cannot see a difference since then, especially since October of this last year, you decided from the jump that Norvel wasn't it and never gave him a chance.
Jeremy Pruitt has entered the chat
How did Charlie Strong at Texas not make this list?
The SEC west is tough most of the time but there is absolutely no reason for Arkansas to ever be as bad as it was in 2018/2019 unless they are heavily sanctioned. I mean that North Texas loss a few years ago was about as bad as it gets, not just losing but getting dismantled. Arkansas should always be competitive at the least with an occasional team that has a special run.
The western Kentucky loss was even worse than North Texas , Western Kentucky beat Arkansas with a former Arkansas QB who was told he wasn’t good enough to play at Arkansas.
Chad Morris brings a bowl when someone says it’s chilly outside
Tennessee’s Pruitt years almost broke me as a fan of the Vols. Losing to GA State and BYU in back to back games….
same here. I do not think Taggert Morris or Miles are anywhere close to as sorry as Pruitt. I honestly think he was the most pathetic coach in the history of sports. So glad he is gone
@@richardbishop8666 It's impressive when you're the worst coach after Fulmer was fired.
The Ellis Johnson hire at USM also indirectly led to South Carolina’s implosion after 2013 since the DC hired after him was awful and was propped up by an almost NFL caliber defense, as soon as Clowney was drafted it was all over.
You mention Kansas and Les Miles following Mark Mangino, but you forget the disaster of Charlie Weis before Les Miles. The hiring of Charlie Weis foreshadowed Kansas slipping fully into the abyss.
Very true.
They paid through the ear to buy out the rest of his Notre Dame contract AND gave him a guaranteed five year contract before snap one.
The West Coast offense had already proven to be an abysmal failure in the college ranks, most notably after Kansas dropped 76 points on Callahan's Nebraska team.
- I gave Turner Gill the benefit of the doubt. Nobody could have forseen just how bad he would be.
- Beatty followed Weis, had successful history with the program, and was cheap enough that they could afford him while paying out Weis' contract.
- Miles not only won a title at LSU, but had been the architect of a massive turnaround at Oklahoma State.
I can forgive those hires. The Weis debacle was completely inexcusable.
Charlie Weis (and Turner Gill) were outside the past 10 years though.
Chad Morris. Arkansas. 100%
Jeff long hired 2 on this list haha
Only person i hate more than bielema is the guy who hired him
Clay Helton destroyed USC my vote go’s to him
How did Helton destroy the program? When the great Traitor to Oklahoma falls on his face ,it will be more clear .. . USC has infrastructure issues and administration failure
@@showtale8325 How did he not? Lol the recruiting was poor and getting worse by the year, play calling poor, kids weren’t motivated, a lot of transfers leaving, bad coaching hires, no physicality during practices, bad structure for a program he was bad all the way around. USC should have to retrool it’s roster when a coach leaves. Shows you the condition he left the program in.
Where is Charlie Weis in this list or would he have been earlier? You do a great job. O-H
Arkansas is the perfect example of just how important a good coach is. 2019 and 2021 are basically the exact same team with a handful of differences. Yet one played like they’d never seen a field and the other was a couple plays away from 10-3 or even 11-2. What changed? It wasn’t like the players sucked and then magically got better. After all, you still had players like Burks and Morgan on the field. No, it was the staff that changed. Pittman and company are what happens when good players meet a good coach and they each help each other become their best versions of themselves. Morris was what happens when absolutely no one works together and the players just dont care to work to their potential. On paper and talent wise, we were much better than 4-20 in 18 and 19. Our staff just didn’t know how to or just didn’t care to bring out their best. I mean I really don’t like talking down about people, but man Morris really made it hard to like him. Im sure i speak for most Hog fans in saying we wish him luck wherever he goes. We just dont ever wanna run into him.
I’m an Tennessee fan and your 100% right. I feel like both of our schools finally have some momentum and a good coach.
@Ryan M It was the right call just not the right play call. But hey look at the bright side. Had Bret still been here, we’d have been up by 14 at half just to lose by 21. And if Chadwick Moron was still here, we’d have been blown out by 50+.
I don't wish Morris well. If he'd been run out of Fayetteville without millions in payout, then maybe. As far as I'm concerned, he stole all the money he was paid.
Honorable mentions to Ron Zook at Florida, Will Mischamp at Florida and South Carolina and Derek Dooley and Jeremy Pruitt at Tennessee.
CLAY HELTON - it's not even close.
Lane Kiffin, Butch Jones and Jearmy Pruitt. Through in Derick Dooley and IT football has the sweep in the last 10 years. It's nice to have a competitive team and really be excited about Tennessee Football again.
And it’s funny that lane kiffin is now considered a good coach I’m excited for ole Miss next season
Based on???….
Kiffin was good at Tennessee. Butch had Tennessee in the top 10 a couple of times. Jeremy Pruitt just sucked
charlie strong at texas. only coach in school history to have 3 straight losing seasons.
Morris 🤮
Chad Morris was so bad he got malzhan fired
Ive never been happier to see someone fired than I was for Jeff Long.
He did far more to promote himself than he ever did for Arkansas athletics.
From an FSU fan, I see hope with Mike Norvell that I did not see with Taggert. I think Taggert got in over his head when he went to FSU and do wish him luck where he is.
What a great segment! Keep it up Josh Pate. There were some Red Raiders who were upset we didn't hire Chad Morris, I have no idea why. I laughed at that one & that hire. I won't laugh too hard as Matt Wells could have easily made this list.
Les Miles created a lot of angst and stole 2 of our best recruits. Oh, there was weeping and gnashing of teeth, but neither did anything & are no longer at KU. As Josh Pate pointed out, neither did Les Miles.
I have a friend from MS & is a MSU grad, he is confused about USM as well either. He says the schools are comparable in size and such and no reason for such a fall.
My brother was on that 12-2 and that 0-12 season for Usm. Talk about a turn of events
This should be number 1 and Norm Chow failing horribly at Hawaii deserves to be on here and at number 2.
Any time I hear the name Willie Taggart, I throw up in my mouth just a bit. It's like dessert food that has gone bad.
Everyone else knew it wasn't dessert. We knew it was a plate of poop yall paid millions for and then millions more to kick out
@Matthew Walker he would have had it not been for a blocked pat
How is Norvell any better??? They have almost identical records after two years
@Matthew Walker Taggart had Asante Samuel Cam Akers Deondre Francois and still couldn’t dominate. He never won against Miami and Florida. At least Norvell beaten Miami. And put up a fight with Florida. If Taggart was still at FSU we would’ve been 0-12 his 3rd season🤷🏾♂️
@@AlmightyMauMau because some of Taggart players are still on the team. Hell Jordan Travis is Taggart QB. But Norvell has a better roster Now. Then Taggart ever had
Honorable mention: Lovie smith
Charlie Strong was the worst Texas coach in my lifetime. Such a bad hire
How is Scott "Vanilla" Frosty not on this list? 4-8, 5-7, 3-5, 3-9 for his first 4 seasons. And this is at a former blue blood.
Idk how he keeps getting a pass
Because he loses every single game by a single possession. He doesn't get blown out and now he has a much better qb, but yea they suck but maybe not for long
Because his time at Nebraska hasn't ended. Five years from now, he will be on this list.
@@marcusjones5287 Well he's on the list now.
I know this list is only for this decade but if there were a Hall of Fame for worst coaching hires, Ty Willingham at Notre Dame and Washington (take your pick) would be on the list.
Charlie Weiss. He got schools to pay multiple millions to not coach.
Yep you've got to swap him for Miles on buyout alone.
Unfortunately Geoff Collins at Georgia Tech might be added to the list here soon. I hope not, but I am a bit pessimistic.
As a Southern Miss alumni and former football player, I totally agree. We haven't been same since Bower. We all knew Fedora was using us as a stepping stone. Its just not the same down in Hattiesburg.
Rutgers coach Chris Ash should be on the list
something we are first in! Chad Morris had to be the worst hire in CFB history
Ellis Johnson really damaged Southern Miss. He was hired over Blake Anderson. Blake was already on staff and players liked him. Ellis hired several coaches that had been out of football for years. Strength and conditioning coach wouldn't let players listen to music during workouts. Team was intact only big loss was our QB. Senior heavy offensive line. We had a senior QB on roster but Ellis insisted on playing his prize freshman recruit. He wasn't ready. Then injuries mounted. The team gave up after the Louisville game( Teddy Bridgewater was their QB). I'm afraid our best days are in the past.
Derek Dooley, Butch Jones, and Jeremy Pruitt--- 'nuff said!!!
FCM. All my homies hate Chad Morris.
Thanks for covering Southern Miss Josh! I know we've been irrelevant lately, but soon, hopefully, we can earn our way back into the national discussion.
Stellar choices, can’t argue but I’m biased. Vols blew it with Pruitt! Coach Beldar nearly killed our program, not to mention made any grammar teacher scream from despair!
I thought for sure Cornbread would be on there
@@tchrishoward that’s the way the cornbread crumbles, aight!
Will Muscant those were some dark Saturday's I remember only watching the 1st qtr of games......
Why was this recommended to me after looking for Mike Leach dancing after the Auburn game
Can't believe the Harsin hire wasn't included somehow
Honorable mentions for Dan Mullen as HC for Florida and Joe Moorhead for Mississippi State.
bro it get worse Chad morris lost to his old QB who went to Western Kentucky. he was fired after that ass whoopen we got. they put up 42ish points. hate Chad Morris so much
after this past season some of these takes would sound completely different like arkansas fans and fsu fans swiched places in terms of satisfaction (but i dont think ark fans have punted on pittman quite yet)
Clay Helton at USC! Besides a one-and-a-half year stretch where Sam Darnold led us to a Rose Bowl victory, Helton managed to single-handedly steer a premier program into total irrelevancy.
Ty Willingham
I still think WIllie Taggart got a raw deal.
Of course you do
Taggert was a worse hire than Morris. Granted both were bad, maybe 1a and 1b, but with a down Miami and UF FSU got worse instead of better. Norvell is still trying to pick up the pieces of that debacle.
where's Central Florida on the list with Charlie?
Illinois should be on the list for 3 different coaching hires... T.Beckman, Bill Cubit followed by Love Smith...HOW exactly could this NOT be on your list of worst coaching hires ???????
Al Golden was a horrible fit for Miami
I am seriously sitting in ft Smith watching right now.
Now, you should do the best hires in the last decade.
Hello from the future, Kansas would now also make that list
Jeremy Pruitt is the worst head coach I have ever seen it got to a point where we thought we could get penalties that would kill our program but even before that he was absolutely horrible he ran frankly the worst offense in football history imo with all the talent we had he never did anything relevant so he’ll always be the worst in my book
You forgot Geoff Collins.
Geoff Collins at Ga Tech
Chad Morris is a great offensive mind. Show the man some respect. Hindsight is 20/20
Probably should have included Will Muschamp’s tenure at Florida from 2011-2013
It’s Fayetteville not Fort Smith.
How about Scott Frost at Nebraska
Chris Ash at Rutgers should be mentioned
I know he narrowed the list to this decade but the worst coaching hires this century has to be Greg Robinson of Syracuse from 2005 to 2008. Took a respectable program and decent program and went 5-37! That's right after the Big East lost Miami and Virginia Tech.
Mike Norvell is looking really good for FSU right now.
Yeah media is still behind, FSU loves Norvell.
Hindsight is 20/20, a lot of hires turn out to be dog shit, but don't look like it when they first happen... But Karl Dorrell at CU looked like a hot mess waiting to happen from day 1.
Geoff Collins at Georgia Tech
Clay Helton at USC
As a Nole, Willie Taggart wasn’t ready. He’s a great dude but he’s a power OC, not HC
I heard Ellis Johnson didn't attend 1 defensive meeting..lol
At USM
The fact that Justin Fuente is not on this list is insane
As an Arkansas fan I started getting into the football team more in 2016 and that was the only ok year I saw out of them other than this last season 2017-2020 was just awful it’s crazy to think it took 5 seasons just to see an actual competent Arkansas football team smh
Ole Oregon St coach at Nebraska..Mike Riley
Thank you. Riley walked in to a 9 win team at Nebraska, and finished with a 4 win team. Guy was terrible.
Tommy Tuberville at Texas Tech. Guy was never committed to the job and bolted as soon as he had an opening.
Didn’t help that he was hired to replace the best Coach the school ever had after the admins screwed him over for all the wrong reasons. CJK5H…
Anyone not mentioning Jimmy Lake from WA as one of the worst hires in the last decade doesn't know college football
I agree with you 100%. When he hired Donovan as his OC, who was fired by Penn St because he couldn’t average more than 21 ppg , I knew he days as a head coach were never numbered
God bless
TH-cam autoplay this video in 2024
Geoff Collins. GT. Total bum.
Lane Kiffin at UT should be up there as well lol
The issue is that he is now a successful coach
Kiffin was good at Tennessee. 7-5 after that terrible year before he came to Tennessee
The only one that made no sense was firing of Les Miles.
Joker Phillips at Kentucky was one of the worst of the worst who was replaced by Mark Stoops who is one of the best of the best.
Problem with this one is that nobody before him ever won anything either so it was expected. Kentucky has always been at the bottom of the SEC so his tenure there went unnoticed
I would have said Dan Mullen as well. Had a national championship team in 2020, yet had 8 wins.
Pruitt, Hoke, Strong, and Helton belong on this list too. Soon, Mel Tucker and Billy Napier will be on this list. If Jimbo can't get A&M to Atlanta within the next few seasons, expect Jimbo on here too.
Scott Frost, Chuck Strong, Chad Morris, Will Muschamp?
nope nvm
What about Tyrone Willingham he single handedly set UW back a decade
What?? Neuheisel went from 11-1 to being fired . He’s the reason U dub was atrocious
@@AlmightyMauMau you don’t know your football and assume you hate white people and are racist or disrespectful and ignorant. Tyrone delivered multiple winless seasons. He got all 5 years due to the pushback by media and the false agenda that Black coaches are not given same shot! But they are and do get greater leniency far more often than not. Slick Rick hurt the program and Colorado and UCLA too, but Tyrone took UWash into the wash of poo-poo laundry. Ironically it was Sarkisian that corrected U-dub before taking USCal (a job he had no business taking mind you) and now is at Texas. Which Texas should of kept Herman.
