Mario is obviously in a great position in Miami

Great guy. Apparently great CEO and recruiter. Combined with the money they spend the talent will be there. Also have built a nice staff with two top notch coordinators. As far as coaching ability, I heard from a Miami media guy that in game decisions have been delegated for the last year or two (Dawson?). We all remember how bad it was the first few years of his tenure. The sore PSU crowd will say the same about our coach. I'll reserve my judgement on that until later. No question Miami is set up for success so no problem with the list. ** Edited by crazylane at 7/8/2026, 10:44:27 PM ** Edited by crazylane at 7/8/2026, 10:45:34 PM

Billy road Brady’s coattails. End of story. He’s an awful coach who has….

CappyHokie 07/09/26 12:49 PM ET

NarDouche is a special kind of Ahole. I can't stand him**
Hate2SeeItEnd Hokie 07/09/26 09:48 AM ET
agreed but he is a pretty good coach**
lazarus1 07/09/26 12:21 PM ET
I think ranking him at 9 is a total joke.**

Same for Dabo, he can't coach a lick but
lazarus1 07/09/26 12:25 PM ET
his high ranking is not based on 'recent' success. 2015-2020 glory years.

Maybe Bill is pulling
Tidewater Hillbilly 07/08/26 07:09 PM ET
Maybe, he just can’t relate to 18-22 year olds**
Hokie`79 07/09/26 08:03 AM ET
Males. He seems to relate to females that age just fine**

Funny how a great QB makes a coach look like a genius**
marcbvtgm 07/08/26 07:17 PM ET
^This. Brady also made Bruce Arian's a genius too! I'd take Hokie Arians

The weirdest, most

I remember seeing Tom Brady at Meechigan and thought...

Almost correct; change “good back up” to “all time great”
