Reading a book on Bobby Bowden and since it's the offseason, who are your 5 favorite coaches ever and why?

1. Bobby Dodd- Goes without saying, no one will ever be over this guy. Now if it was AD, it would be a different story. Not a big fan of him as an AD.

2. Bobby Bowden- Even though I am a Tech fan first, I have always loved Bowden. The way he lives his life is remarkable, in and out of coaching.

3. Gary Patterson- Even though they had a down year this year, TCU could not have a better guy than this one. Have heard him speak on a couple of occasions and he has always impressed me. Also love his style of defense.

4. Steve Spurrier- I love his passion for the game and how he does things his way. A lot of people hate him but I think he's great. Plus he's probably the only person on Earth that hates the Dwags more than Tech fans.

5. Herman Edwards- He's not a college coach, but I have never seen a coach who cares more about his players than him. In my opinion he would be a great college coach but I don't ever see him giving it a go.

Whoa Nelly! Hard to reconcile Dodd and Bowden being on any list together on any subject. Arguably the most corrupt program in college athletics during Bowden's reign.
