Coach Riley is ranked in the 60s.

More interesting is Scott Frost being ranked below Kliff Kingsbury.

Kingsbury was a four year starter at TTech. He had a great career there.

Yeah Kingsbury had a good career I thought. I know squat about Riley's Leatherhead days.

KK was a good player, for sure, but I'd trade a couple of years for a national title. ESPN's the WWL at hair-pulling.

I'm a homer so I will say that Matt Campbell is ranked too low.

 

[Warrior]

I think the top 5 could all be somewhat interchangeable. I think a lot weight is out on the post college experience. Plus the numbers Kliff K. was putting up at the time were unheard of!

Too bad Turner Gill isn't at KU any more. We would have two guys in the top 10.

Edit: And Pelini might have been in the top 30 or so.
