Dave Wannstadt is the worst.
The list was made Stewart Mandel on the cnn/si website:
The five worst
1. Chuck "Red Shoes" Amato, N.C. State: Any remaining doubts as to how badly the Wolfpack has underachieved lately were erased in April's NFL draft, when three members of a 7-5 team were selected in the first round. Amato's teams have had no offensive iden y whatsoever since Philip Rivers' departure, which might have something to do with going through new coordinators nearly every year. Didn't he at least take notes when Norm Chow was there?
2. Gary Pinkel, Missouri: How golden an opportunity were the last two years for Missouri football? The career of the most dynamic quarterback in school history (Brad Smith) and a roster finally filled with Pinkel recruits happened to coincide with the rare downturns of division powers Nebraska and Kansas State. What do the Tigers have to show for it? A 12-11 record and an Independence Bowl win.
3. Chan Gailey, Georgia Tech: Another year, another season of maddening inconsistency for a Gailey-coached team, which last season managed to go on the road and beat top 10 foes Auburn and Miami but lose to N.C. State and Virginia and, in its most embarrassing display to date, crumble 38-10 to Utah in its bowl game. At least he's consistent about one thing: Tech has won exactly seven games in each of Gailey's four seasons.
4. John L. Smith, Michigan State: There was a time, back at Louisville, when Smith might have merited consideration for the other list. But he appears in over his head in the Big Ten, where defense and special teams -- not exactly Smith's fortes -- actually matter. Despite producing the nation's fifth-ranked offense last year, the Spartans dropped six of their last seven games, including 49-14 to Northwestern and 41-18 to Minnesota.
5. Bill Doba, Washington State: The 65-year-old career high school coach/college assistant was able to carry on the pipeline for one season, going 10-3 in 2003 and beating Texas in the Holiday Bowl, but the Cougars have won only four Pac-10 games in the two seasons since. Can someone explain how a team with a 1,900-yard rusher (Jerome Harrison) can go 4-7?
Yes, that's right, Kentucky fans, Brooks earned a reprieve this year. After a fairly disastrous first two seasons in which rumors circulated almost daily that he wanted out, Brooks finally seemed more comfortable last season, and the Wildcats showed signs of progress on the field.
Others considered for worst: Virginia's Al Groh, Texas A&M's Dennis Franchione, Oregon State's Mike Riley, North Carolina's John Bunting and Illinois' Ron Zook.
Dave Wannstadt is the worst.
Took the words right out of my mouth.
This guy just sucks at coaching period. I wouldnt let him coach a Pop-warner team.
You guys are so right.
Just look at what he did to a pretty good Pitt team in just one year.
I thought Franny would be in the top 5.
he sucks as a head coach, but did a great job as defensive coordinator.
Patience my good man..
What about Coach Fran? He is tarnishing his resume and will be a total bum if the aggaggs have another ty season. Baylor is A MUST WIN this year
Baylor is A MUST WIN this year
scott your sig is the ing dude
hottest german ever
i didn't even know they came in the brunette variety
What if aggy loses to UT, OU, TT, and BU. Man they would want to hang Franny if that happened.
Us Krauts come in many flavors my friend.
I remember when Fran got hired and my cousins (A&M alums) were touting it as a revival and that they would be contenders in two years. What a laugher.
I still remember when Gailey was hired as the Cowboys coach and everyone was excited. God how much he sucked...inconsistency is the name of his game.
One minute he'd have a wide open offense and as soon as the Boys were in the red zone, they would become more conservative than Parcells.
Gerry Faust doring his Notre Dame coaching tenure in the '80's. Was even worse when he coached Akron from 1986-1994.
What about Coach Fran?...Baylor is A MUST WIN this year
HA!!!
'Member when this game us to be a gimme??
RC Slo does.
Ugh I know. Fran sucks, and most people didn't seem to see it until recently. My dad (an A&M alum) always said that he thought Fran was no good, especially after Fran's assistant coaches came out and told the boys that "you may have had the nickname 'the wrecking crew' before, but y'all are nothing", or something to that affect.
The guy sucks, and I can't wait til the day they fire him
Someone forgot to tell Franny that Karma is a .
But Reggie McNeal > Vince Young... right?
Fran is gone if he doesn't win at least 9-10 games this year.
I don't use this one often, but:Baylor is A MUST WIN this year
