From the early 1980s on into the next century, the football program at the University of Miami had one of the most successful runs in modern college football history...

Yes I am bored. Some arguable but half way interesting

Imagine if Schnellenberger didn't get sucked up into the USFL BS

Bleacher report names Dennis Erickson the greatest Miami football coach. ***n trolls, can we ban bleacher report from CIS?

Howard started with the least as far as coaches of NC teams. His first team went 5-6 and lost to FAMU. That was a terrible team he took over

I don’t see al Golden..list is not legit

When you have Butch Davis one spot ahead of the man that destroyed the program, the list is a sham. And Dennis at #1 because he won two titles? Seriously? Both of his titles were with JJ's players. He drove the wheels off the race car, much like Coker did.

exactly.. any list that doesn't have howard and jimmy as the top two is insane. And Butch should have most likely been 3rd. I can hear a debate of butch vs. dennis.. but cmon- its jimmy and howard WAAAAAAAY above the rest.

Yeah, what genius came to that conclusion? That's what happens when you give 12 year olds a laptop.

I agree totally. As a I stated list is arguable

spot on. that list is a joke.

couldn't be funnier than if it was a mel brooks sketch.

Howard and Jimmy at the top. Followed closely by Andy Gustafson.

 

[RightSaidFred]

Terrible

 

[305to954]

Howard should be one..Jimmy next..Dennis next..then Butch

 

[4everlost]

Where's Pete Elliott? Oh, he's on the other list (worst coaches) along with Fran Curci

 

[GojiraCane]

Top 3 (at least from 1980 forward)

1. Jimmy Johnson
2. Howard Schellenberger
3. Butch Davis

 

[NorthEastCane]

Butch and JJ too low.

I love Howard and know him personally so he will always be my favorite. He won the first and opened the floodgates for those that followed. For me he is GOAT but we did get in trouble with ncaa and were sanctioned. Coker won a title but got us in ncaa jail also. Dennis grabed two NCs and played havoc on everyone but in his reign we gut the worse ncaa sanctions we ever got. You could easily dirt should knock a coach down on the list. JJ had some issues but no sanctions but was one for three in NC games. Butch was clean guided us through virtual death penalty and only produced the greatest team in history and 1st round picks record that Saban is still just chasing. Had he got one NC he would have to be the greatest. But he didn't.

I was around for Andy and have very few fond memories other than certain players and a couple years. I would have to consider Lou Saban for the 6th spot because he did set the table for Howard with some decent recruiting. I would take out Andy and only go with top five.

Everything considered, it has to be Howard for number one. Without him we might have never even heard of those who followed. Right now we heed another Howard and none of the others except MAYBE Butch will do. It is that bad.

Agreed. No love for Lou.
I'd go
1. JJ
2. Howard
3. Butch
4. Gustafson
5. Saban

You can’t have Butch below Dennis

No problem with this except this THE U and titles matter so I can't leave out Dennis or Coker. Remember, JJ lost two of three titles he played last game of season for.
