Schwartzwalder comes in at #41. "When Syracuse hired Schwartzwalder to revive its struggling program in 1949, he joked, "The alumni wanted a big-name coach. They got a long-name coach."

I thought maybe Coach P would make an appearance at the very end, but he didn't.

I know recency bias is a thing, but Urban Meyer at #46 seems awfully low. He has a career record 187-32 and three titles. Dabo is at #31 and will continue to rise.

Urban Meyer has 3 NCs and Dabo has 2 NCs. That list is terrible.

Bear above Saban is just historians not wanting to give it to Saban.
Bear Bryant was a bully's bully.

Their recency bias is showing.

Knute Rockne would disagree with his placement over Amos Alonzo Stagg. He said flat out Stagg was better than he was.
