the fastest Rebel black bear shark coach to reach 50 wins. Is he the best coach they have ever had? I know John Vaught had 3 FAKE national championships, but that was in a different era and also a time where he and Bear Bryant met each year to lay out the SEC schedule in their favor. I'll at least label him their best coach in the modern era and hope he gets a bad case of diarrhea during the egg bowl.

The schedule only had 9 or 10 regular seasons in the Vaught/Bryant era, and a much lower chance of going to a bowl. Regardless, Kiffen has done well.

You mistyped “0 national championships” there.
Kiffin is a good coach and he’s the right guy at the right time. But it’s basically pointless to compare across eras, but especially pre and post integration.
I’d also put tubberville up there, though granted he mostly proved how good he was elsewhere.

Vaught didn’t coach against Bryant much considering how long they coached

Google AI says Vaught only coached against Bama 6 times while Bryant was there. The wiki page of bama ole miss has 7 games, AI doesn’t include sugar bowl I guess

from 1933 season to 1965 season, they only had 1 regular season game

If I’m not mistaken, Staye has played Bama more than any other team, and OM has played them one of the least.
