NU fan in Denver Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 I was reading Maxim Magazine today and it had an article about the 10 worst college coaches. To my surprise, Tom Osborne was number 10. I couldn't believe it. The main reason, you guessed it, Lawrence Phillips. Only a few spots away at #7 was Gary Barnett. Here's a rundown of the list: 10. TO 9. Larry Eustachy Ia St bball 8. Jackie Sherrill Miss. St. FB 7. Gary Barnett CU FB 6. Woody Hayes Ohio St FB 5. Bob Huggins Cincinnati (K-state) bball 4. Jim Harrick UCLA bball 3. John Chaney Temple bball 2. Bob Knight Indiana (Texas Tech) bball 1. Dave Bliss Baylor bball Quote Link to comment
Hawkeyehusker Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 Wow, six big 12 coaches. Quote Link to comment
KansasHusker Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 What does Maxim know about anything besides taking pics of women with half their clothes off. I guess Maxim would rather count 250+ wins and multiple national titles as being bad because we had a crazy player on our team for a few years. Quote Link to comment
ttheKid1*18 Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 That list overall is just a horrible list. Most of those coaches had good careers, with some mess-ups, yet it includes championships, and championship games. Quote Link to comment
HSKRNOKC Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 Where is Barry Switser??????? Do they remember all of the drugs money and woman that just about did ou in????? Quote Link to comment
BIGREDIOWAN Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 They don't know what the hell their talking about!!!! Quote Link to comment
gamecocks Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 I saw that in Maxim as well. My roommates and I counted about 20 other coaches that should be ahead of Tom or at the same level as Tom in that list. Quote Link to comment
DaveH Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 I doubt anyone actually "reads" Maxim. Quote Link to comment
Touchdown Tommie Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 The articles are nice...wait, wrong magazine!!!!!!!! What a joke for them to put Dr. Tom in that category. Just stick to taking pictures!! Quote Link to comment

Let SPORTS magazines do the sports. hell, even sports mags get it wrong over half the time. why can't every publication be cover-to-cover nekkid chicks with some occasional lesbian action to break the tedium?

Foppa Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 I was just about to subscribe, too. Maybe I'll look up FHM instead. Quote Link to comment
USCfan Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 I would say the same thing Maxim doesn't know anything about sports...that article was written by one of their photogs who was tired of snapping pics of naked women... Kinda hard to see Woody Hayes and Tom Osborne as worst coach..consdering how much they won...I can possiblly see Woody Hayes since punching the other teams player is way out of line..but Osborne? What did Knight do that was so bad? Maxim writers are here to follow the status quo and probably think "desperate housewives" is a good show...hahah Quote Link to comment
huskernumerouno Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 If TO was the 10th worst coach, why did he get put into the hall of fame so quickly. Another opinion that means squat. Quote Link to comment
