  5. I find it odd when a coach (or a coach's son) can command a position of power at a university. It's like what Chris Rock said about Shaq being rich, but the guy who signs Shaq's checks being wealthy. A coach is an employee of the university. Unless he gives back a huge portion of his salary to the university (as JoePa does), why should he have anything to do with calling shots at the university, outside of his football related duties? It's like letting Britney Spears run Sony Records!

  6. Lane Kiffin on the list over Les Miles is an absolute joke.

  7. Tim Tebow should be #1. He controls everything.
