1. Virginia (Mendenhall)
2. Miami, FL (Richt)
3. Virginia Tech (Fuente)
4. Georgia (Smart)
5. Maryland (Durkin)
Lot's of Cooridators are hyped as sure bets as HC until the Peter principle takes hold. I'll take real world success (Fuente) over potential as a HC (Smart and Durkin). When it comes to potential Smart has a better body of work than Durkin amd walks into a better situation with better talent on-hand and a better pipeline.
Was Durkin's '15 defense really that much better than Mattison's '14 defense when you consider that Mattison's defense was constantly defending a short field and turnovers, didn't have Peppers and had a LB coaching the defenisive backs?
'14 offense averaged 20.9 ppg
'14 defense gave up 22.4 ppg
'15 offense averaged 30.6 ppg
'15 defense gave up 17.2 ppg
I'm not a member of the Ann Arbor pitchfork club calling for Durkin to be strung up for leaving Ann Arbor, nor am I on the Durking bandwagon. Need to see more.

The way Mark Richt fell into Miami's lap was just amazing. Maybe not the flashiest hire, but a few years from now this one will be seen as the clear #1

Don't get me wrong, he'll do well and get them at least 8-9 wins a year, but he always had a nasty habit of underachieving at UGa and dropping 1-2 games a year that he should've won.
I think he'll do very well, and maybe throw in a conference title or two, but he'll still have to contend with FSU and Clemson.
Interested too to see how Mendenhall does at UVa. I think they could be very good in the next few years. Or at least not miss bowl games anymore.
