Jimmy Johnson is 49th, just in front of Lloyd Carr.
Johnson had an over-.500 record at Oklahoma State, pre-Miami.  Some other impressive over-.500 marks at their 'other' P5 stops for HCs:
Ara Parseghian at Northwestern
Lou Holtz at NC State
Spurrier at South Carolina and Duke
Snyder at Kansas St
Dennis Erickson at Oregon St
Dan Devine at Missouri
John Cooper at ASU
Earle Bruce at Iowa St
Les Miles at Oklahoma St

Those are notable figures, I think, versus somebody moving to UGA and posting good numbers.

Right, winning at a helmet or 'name' program isn't all that newsworthy.  But a winning record at Northwestern?  Wow!

James Franklin won 60% of his games at Vanderbilt.  That's pretty damn impressive.

Not only that, but they tanked after he left.  Three bowl games and two 9 win seasons, at Vandy.  That is almost like someone showing up at Rutger and winning 4 games two years in a row.

Yeah, I think there's just recency bias for him, and/or not enough overall volume of games to really put him in there yet.
