Osborne Greatest of All Time

[Jarred04]

I also "corrected" them. I urge others to do so, too. Didn't he coach for 25 years, not 24? Just go to espn.com and go to the "report error" tab on the front page.

 

[sCrUmptious!]

I had to throw my vote in for the only D-1 coach on their list without a National Championship... it's my own mini payback on Dr. Tom for 1990 :lol:

Voted and hopefully they will correct their information

That's ok. I voted for Dr Tom about a dozen times to offset your vote

MMMMMM... they have him down as only 17 bowl appearances... TO never missed a bowl. Didn't he coach 25 seasons?? Or am I goofy.. 73 to 97... hmmmm

Maybe I'm off. I home with a nasty cold but I think they got a LOT of his data wrong.

cant spell cant do math what should we expect from espn??? :madash

I'm going to evaluate his performance over the next couple of months before jumping to any hasty conclusions.

 

[HuskerCuse]

So I reported bugs for both the spelling and the bowl appearances to ESPN...wonder what kind of idiot is putting those facts together. Let's see how long before they get it correct.

Awesome fact checking department they have there.

It was probably some 20-year old intern that compiled the list and their stats.

Well Snork, that makes you a dork. :corndance

Tom Osborne is the greatest coach of all time in any sport. Period. To say or even think otherwise is blasphemy. :box

And even if he completely failed in these tasks as an AD in the years ahead (which he won't), this is about Greatest COACH of all time, not AD.

Just go to the bottom of the page and click on 'Report a Bug' to let them know they screwed up.

 

[REDSTEEL]

How retarded is a list that doesn't even include Bud Wilkinson.......

I was looking for his name to, they also did'nt put in Bob Devaney, but they have Hayden Fry?

Love Barry Switzer quote "Some people were born on third base and go through life thinking they've hit a triple"

 

[Husker_x]

In terms of character it's hard to get better than TO.

Probably Herbstreit did the research! After all, he couldn't even tell you who was on the '71 team, but knew that 2005 USC would beat them! What an :asshat !!!

 

[c-flush]

Is anyone actually getting results other than 0% for every coach?

 

[NX014Ever]

It was all zero for me when I voted too.

*EDIT*

Just got an email back from them;

Hi Tim
Thank you for contacting us. Can you send me the link to the page where you see this. I can't seem to find it. I am unclear as to if you are saying the poll left out the "u" or if you are saying it shouldn't have an "u." As a native Nebraskan and HUGE Husker fan I know it does not have an "u." So if it is wrong I will insist that it is corrected, but I need the link.

Thanks for visiting ESPN.com.

For live assistance with this or any other issue, please call Customer Care at 1-888-549-3776 (ESPN) between 7:00 am and 2:00 am EST.

So I sent him the link. We'll see if it is corrected now.

Be sure to let him know the other mistakes, too. Way to go.
