[Husker] Ranking the Coaches

[Michael Petersen]

I think Mac Brown wins hands down. Stoops won one early but has destructed 
in bowl games lately. Brown out-recruits everyone. Stoops assistants have 
gone alot of places but they haven't lit the world on fire since they left. 
I know this is a small detail, but... if I'm the "smartest coach in the 
world" I probably would question my starting QB working for a used car 
dealer that got my starting RB in trouble the year before.

Plus, I'm a Husker... I get paid to hate OU.
