"What is Coach of the Year? At Liberty Mutual Insurance, we realize that academic standings mean as much as divisional standings. And that how you win is just as important as winning itself. Which is why we created our Liberty Mutual Coach of the Year Award. More than just a trophy, the Liberty Mutual Coach of the Year Award provides each coach with $50,000 to donate to the charity, or charities of his choice. As well as a $20,000 grant to donate to his school’s alumni association."

That's a lot of Toys for Tots!

He's done a stellar job so far, but we're only a third of the way through the season.

regardless of whether you think he deserves it, even if it is this early, it's still a potential poll skew/opportunity to vote in one of our people, so the thread is fine

[Edited on September 28, 2010 at 12:38 AM. Reason : plus it can be bumped later]

Lets reserve judgment.

i'll wait til we have at least 8 wins.

[Edited on September 28, 2010 at 12:20 PM. Reason : might not be this year]

Honestly, to me it is more about seeing us win the money for his charities and the University. Why not support someone from NC State and see the money come home?

He is number 6 right now!

10/1/2010 10:18:11 AM

What a random thread.

11/15/2010 7:29:02 PM

How about we wait until we actually win something? If he loses out, there will be lots of negative talk about him

11/15/2010 7:45:10 PM

He blew it with the punt at Clemson

Even John Fox would've gone for it

11/15/2010 7:53:54 PM

can we vote him for best program builder (maybe)?

and then vote him for worst in-game coach (definitely)?

11/15/2010 10:03:27 PM

TOB was named one of the finalist today:

voted; TOB is #7.

but most of the choices are ridiculous, Jim Tressel, OSU is good every year and they have loaded recruiting classes, he should finish somewhere around the top 10.

12/14/2010 8:49:54 AM

OSU only looks good because of who they play.

12/14/2010 9:11:23 AM
