On the down side...he got beat by Pruitts Vols. The Buckeyes played about as bad a game as they could possibly play and still beat Indiana. This crap happens all the time. A coach has one good year and now he is Rockne. Let him win a BIG title before anointing him. That would mean something. Last year it was the Minnesota coach. How's he doing consistency wise? Same with Freeze. He beat Bama twice. That's all he did. Still wasn't good enough to win an SECw or SEC title. Plus came close to getting them the death penalty. Overall, Cutcliffe did better during his Eli years without the probation.
So Saban or Dabo or bust, then. Maybe Lincoln Reilly?
You want someone who consistently wins P5 conference titles, those are your choices. Good luck.
