Picked this article up today out of SportingNews, which ranks the top coaches in the Pac 12, and coming in at #1 is Chip Kelly. Can't say I disagree...the numbers speak for itself.
As for the rest of the list I don't really care:
2. Mike Leach (WSU)
3. Lane Kiffin (SC)
4. Kyle Whittingham (Utah)
5. Sark (UDumb)
6. David Shaw (Stanford)
7. Rich Rod (Arizona)
8. Mike Riley (OAC)
9. Jeff Tedford (Cal)
10. Jim Mora (UCLA)
11. Todd Graham (ASU)
12. Jon Embree (Colorado)
The new comers (Leach, Rich Rod, Mora, Graham) come in at 2, 7, 10, and 11 respectively. Which brings up my only question about the rest of the rankings...why is Leach at #2, when he hasn't even coached a game in the conference yet? In fact the other new comers should be left off the list. At least if you're making a list of the best coaches based on what they've already done in the conference, not what they MAY do.
Just my opinion.
Lane Kiffin should be #2 ;o)
