Kentucky 4th best coaching job? Really?




   Mike Decourcy of Sporting News ranks Kentucky the 4th best college coaching job in America.  Who is the three above UK? 


   1.  UNC

   2.  UCLA

   3.  Texas


   The only one on the list above Kentucky I agree with is UNC, but UCLA and Texas?   UCLA maybe, if it was in the 60s and 70s, but they haven't been much to talk about as of late.   Texas?  That is a complete joke, but his reason for Texas at 3rd is a good one "there's so much talent and money - and minimal pressure to win it all. What more could a coach want?"   True there is minimal pressure, but I'm just not sure if that is reason enough to rank them at 3rd.  


   I think Kentucky's rank at 4 is about right, except I would have them one slot higher at three behind UNC and Duke.  Speaking of Duke, they have a right to be offended where Decourcy has them ranked (8th).
If Duke isn't one of the top three coaching job's in America, then I don't know who is.


Either way, follow the link for his entire top 10
