Ranking Big Ten Football & Men’s Basketball Head Coach Duos from Best to Worst via Ben Kenney, Badgers Wire (14. Fleck/Medved)



Kind of an impossible pointless exercise? But, PJ alone should get us top 9 and Medved has some credibility and has done nothing wrong at Minnesota…so Gophers belong Top 9 somewhere.
Ohio State needs to be higher…the National Championship has to be worth more than that.
 


More than anything this just reiterates the depth of coaching in the B1G conference in the football and basketball coaching ranks. Not the conference to "learn on the job".

I don't disagree with your last line at all but the only thing this list is good for is seeing the names of the current football and basketball coaches at each school right now.
 

They've been ready to fire Gard a couple times in the last 4 years. And Fickell might well be fired this year. But sure #4.

He has Gard as the #3 MBB coach in the conference, ahead of a few guys who have been to Final Fours and a couple of others who are likely going to be in the Basketball Hall of Fame.

That's a little ambitious for a head coach who has never advanced beyond the Sweet 16 ever and who has not been to a single Sweet 16 since 2017 (8 seasons).

Gard is a good coach, great fit there, won a couple of Big Ten titles. He is good. But, he is not the third best coach in the 18-team Big Ten.
