Voted Satan.

Gonna wait until March 3rd and vote 437 times for Devaney.

Voted Satan.

 

[outofyourmind]

It would "seem" simple enough

 

[Illustrious Potentate]

Saban is easily the best coach of all time. Nebraska fans will rally the troops though, so don't count Devaney out.

I don't think there are as many Nebraska fans over here as there was at the SH. Plus it doesn't help that we have a traitor in our midst.

Also, this isn't Osborne, who would spark more interest. I've got my money on either Tom Osborne, Bud Wilkinson or Barry Switzer winning this whole thing.

Well, I hope TO wins lol.

But really I think it should be...

1. Saban
2. Bear
3. Osborne

Saban is the GOAT. There's so many that can be legitimately argued for 2-5 though.

I mean, Frank Broyles doesn't have the numbers as others, but he did win a natty at ARKANSAS, and has the best coaching tree of all time. He wouldn't stand a chance here because so many people can't see beyond numbers, but I'd definitely entertain an argument for him being in the top 5.

Off with his head.

We’re talking about @iowajerms , right?

 

[We Are Decent]

Saban leads in like, every meaningful category, including specific COY awards lol.
