Coaching Comps

Who is your college football coaching comp? Let's find out!

NOTES:

 * Coach MUST be in league 3+ seasons. To see this criteria, visit the Career Stat page.

 * Comps are using FBS/D1/major college football coaching records and stats.

 * I tried to weigh coach overall success in league such as wins, win %, conference championships, 3rd place, runner up and national championships when finding an all-time coaching comp.
