I just can't understand even considering saying something like that.
For that matter, I think it's debatable whether you could even put him in the Top 5 in the state if you only look at the 6 most recent coaches at the major programs in the state (excluding current coaches).
Jeff Bower - 1990-2007
Sylvester Croom - 2004-2008
Jackie Sherrill - 1991-2003
Ed Orgeron - 2005-2007
David Cutcliffe - 1999-2004
Tommy Tuberville - 1995-1998
At best, you might be able to put him ahead of Orgeron to squeeze him into the Top 5 out of the last 6, but even that's up for debate.
