Sometimes you're like Trump - if you say it loud enough it must be true. But he's actually done it 4 times, three of those at Tech, and one of those in 2013. He also made Duke and Minnesota alot better. But he made Auburn worse. And 16th at PSU was pretty amazing.
He's not the best, but he certainly is better than you make him out to be.
I was using total defense. You picked scoring d which is far more than just the D, as scoring d is far more affected by your O.
If you look up total d I will be shown accurate. However I couldn't find a reliable data for gt in 99 00 and 01 so I said the last decade and again I will be shown to be accurate. And I published these numbers in a prior post. His only year better than top 45 in total d was penn st.
Btw u may want to double check that 2013 stat. I think it's more like in the 50s
