Jino Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 The show is airing right now is and is quite entertaining. Will Spurrier ever make it on the list? Carrol, Saban and Dennis Erickson have been featured so far. I think Spurrier will make it. For those of you who have a chance check it out right now.

pvkeeper19 Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Spurrier has got to be #1. That's about the only thing he was ever #1 at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jino Posted April 16, 2008 Author Share Posted April 16, 2008 Interesting fact of the day. Joe Gibbs and Bill Parcells were on the same coaching staff at Florida St. Also, on that staff was Bobby Bowden under Bill Peterson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elkabong82 Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Should be Spurrier at #1. Petrino should be on that list for his mid-season bail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlinginSammy HOF '63 Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Lou Holtz and John McKay may be higher than Spurrier. If I remember right Holtz attempted to bring the option to the NFL Of course John McKayhad to start with a new franchise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jino Posted April 16, 2008 Author Share Posted April 16, 2008 I think Frank Herzog was right. That was the time we needed a GM the most during the Snyder era. With a GM, we could have gotten players suitable for his system. We can see now in retrospect that Ramsey wasn't able enough to start for an NFL team. What if he had JC or Collins starting for him. Maybe he could've gotten somewhere with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdboost Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Wow, and number 1 is.... BOBBY PETRINO! So fitting, they are showing every clip from a player hating on him, it's pretty funny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MidwayMonster31 Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Petrino definitely deserved to be #1. Not only did he jump-ship in the middle of the season. He led a terrible team and all of his players hated him. Many of them called him out during the season. Mike Smith is a no-nonsense guy and should be the right guy to get them back on track.

RIPST21 Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 damn the Petrino hating was so funny!!! I was laughing the whole time!! They really made him out to be very less of a man and showed his true colors. As far as Spurrier, they were definetly right about him. It wasnt his coaching that was bad, it was just him not being able to protect the qb and did not have the right players and a GM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYskins Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 I wouldnt call Petrino a flop. Id call him a jackass for leaving but its not like he really failed... He would have had to stay one more year maybe for that. What a disaster that whole thing turned into - from Vick to him leaving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elkabong82 Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Petrino #1? Wow. I posted earlier in here he should be on the list. I can understand why he got #1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redskns21 Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Can someone please list the entire countdown? I assumed that Spurrier would contend with Petrino for #1. Not that I belive that he was an abhorrent person like Petrino, but Spurrier had probably the most fanfare and following coming into the NFL as anyone that I've seen. That, his salary and the media's propensity to rip on Dan Snyder, I thought for sure he'd be at the top of the heap. Having said that, I'd still like to see who was the meat in the Spurrier/Petrino sandwich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimster Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 I didn't see this, but Lou Holtz should be ahead of Spurrier too, since there was a lot of fan fare for him as well and he came in trying to run the option in the NFL and ended up quitting before finishing one season. Spurrier at least finished out two full years and won some games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWCREDSKINS Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Spurrier should be one. True Petrino was a loser but still he didn't have the hype of Spurrier and who knows if he hadn't lost Vick, Spurrier was just bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he could've gotten somewhere with them. I disagree. Spurriers system didn't even have audible blocking schemes for the OL to adjust too. He also installed 0 hot routes into his offense. I think Spurriers system no matter what type of personel you brought in with him wouldnt of worked. Unless he made some serious adjustments to his scheme he would of FAILED either way.

MWCREDSKINS Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 It all started basically with Spurrier showing the Redskins best player, Stephen Davis the bench. He had no willingness to adjust and realize, Davis was the best player especially when your top QB's are Danny Wurfel and Shane Matthews. Then he shows Davis the door for Trung Canidate and the rest is history, tell me there's a worse college coach than that guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
