Feels good to once again see consistent positive news about our school. CBS is the latest to jump on board this train. The program is definitely trending in the right direction.

What are your thoughts on the list below that is compiled by cbssports? Personally, all I care about is the name at the top of the list.

1. Mark Richt, Miami
2. Jim Grobe, Baylor
3. Justin Fuente, Virginia Tech
4. Tracy Claeys, Minnesota
5. Mike Norvell, Memphis

Scottie Montgomery should be much higher on the list...

He's done a pretty **** good job thus far beating NC St & almost beating South Carolina...
They got shellacked by Va Tech, but they've been a competitive team this season.

And, Kibry "not so Smart" is only ranked that high because of namesake & his prior tenure with Saban.

UGA has barely gotten by the skin on their teeth literally every single week leading up to the asswhoopin they got from Ole Miss.

The ACC has three coaches ahead of the first SEC coach to make the list. Love that sh:+

Top 3 ACC coaches on the list:
#1 , #3 , and #7 .

Top 3 SEC coaches on the list:
#8 , #1 2, and #1 8.
 
I'm happy with Rick so far, but I want to see what happens over these next 6 games before I become full fledged Brock fan boy.

Three ACC coaches in the top seven is nice to see. I think it's on the right path to becoming a tougher conference overall. However it's a little foolish to have a list like this after a month of football. Most likely half the guys on this list won't make it past year 4. Or in Clay Helton's case year one.

Smart is too high as is the Syracuse coach. Fuente is probably too high as well. He's done well in his other 3 games but why would he be so high when he got routed so bad by Tennessee?

The Toledo coach should be higher as should the ECU coach. Also Mendenhall should be even lower. He should probably be at the very bottom behind even Helton.

What about the Dennis Erickson or Urban Meyer Award?

Or on the flip side the Brady Hoke or Charlie Weis Award? I still remember when Hoke won the Sugar Bowl in his 1st year and some people who were more skeptical about Golden were wondering why he couldn't achieve something similar in year 1.

Minnesota just keeps winning. Not surprised to see their coach on that list so high.
