HooplaNation's All-Time Greatest CFB Coach Tourney - Entry Thread

I am thinking 16-seed double-elimination bracket with semifinal losers going for 3rd, but could change on how these early threads go. Which coaches do you think should be included in this bracket? Don't have to rank them, just list.

Also, this is a heck of a story from Switzer about Bryant and Wilkinson

Bud, Barry and Bear As a young assistant, Switzer served drinks to coaching legends

MAY 15, 2021 - On a January evening in a Chicago hotel suite, two college coaching legends shared stories and laughter. Serving them drinks was a 20-something assistant who would become somewhat legendary himself ...... Barry Switzer and Larry Lacewell can't agree on the year. Switzer insists it...

Barry is a national treasure based on his stories alone...most wouldn’t probably be “PC” though. :dhd:

I refuse to lend legitimacy to this bullshit popularity contest. Saban is #1 followed by #2 Wilkinson and then #3 was a small group of coaches like Switzer, Osborne, Bryant, Bowden and Meyer. The Nebraska fans fucked this whole thing up with their rampant homerism but maybe we would do the same thing if the OU program was largely irrelevant in today's world of college football. Hopefully Nebraska will get really good again someday.

LOL. Nebraska fans voting for their guy is homerism but Oklahoma fans doing it isnt ? You realized Nebraska wasn’t gonna win by just their fans voting right? Lol at Bud clearly #2 ahead of Bear and Switzer top 5/6 isn’t homer too. You should cry more, it’s entertaining
