I'm thinking great game day coach versus average, how many points is that worth?


3 & 1/2
hell, who knows
first you'd have to come up with the list of great, vs the list of good, vs the list of average, vs the list of below average

The best game day coach I watched was Spurrier.  Dantonio also is up there from what I've seen.

I thought it was a weakness for Mark Richt, he's average at best in my view.

I think if we switched coaches (if they had prep time and all that), it would be a 7 point shift between UGA and USCe.

Switched coaches?


Depends on who's doing the recruiting. One of those was better than the other at that stuff.

I'm talking about impact on Game Day with the same teams (allowing each coach to learn his personnel of course).

Richt was by far the more successful coach mostly because of better recruiting (UGA vs USCe, not UF).

really hard to tell

the best coaches eventually get the best talent

many times talent is not even

can't be too conservative, but then you need to have some luck with some calls
