College Football 2011: Bo Pelini and 10 College Coaches Who Love to Yell
College football coaches make ridiculous salaries, but the big money does not mean they have lost their passion.
Some coaches are sort of fatherlyโkind of like Joe Paterno.
Some coaches are sort of "Aw, shucks" funโkind of like Bill Stewart.
Then there are those coaches who like to yell.
Interesting fact, most of the yellers are also winnersโcoincidence?
Here are the top 10 sets of lungs in college football.
10. Mack Brown, Texas
1 of 10There was a time when Mack Brown seemed like a playerโs second father.
Then the Longhorns went 5-7, and Brown went all Russian mafia on his team; he brought in new coaches and called out his players for being heartless.
Brown still has a fiery personality, and clearly winning is more important than being loved.
9. Bob Stoops, Oklahoma
2 of 10Bob Stoops has calmed down a bit, but you donโt annually keep a program in the top 10 without having an edge.
Stoops will still jump an official and get in the face of a player if needed.
He just does a better job of keeping it out of the media firestorm.
8. Brian Kelly, Notre Dame
3 of 10Brian Kellyโs desire to win was apparent at Cincinnati, but folks around the country just didnโt take notice.
At Notre Dame, his every word is analyzed. Kellyโs passion for success has been on display in South Bend almost since the day he arrived.
7. Mike Gundy, Oklahoma State
4 of 10No one will ever forget Mike Gundyโs rant about being a man.
But Gundy isnโt afraid to raise his voice on the sidelines either.
Whether itโs one his players or an official who has made a questionable call, Gundy is right there with a few choice words.
6. Pat Hill, Fresno State
5 of 10Pat Hill may be the nicest guy in the world, but he walks around with the Fu-Manchu mustache, and he never seems to smile.
He just looks like a guy youโd love to have backing you up in a fight.
So if Hill is a sweetheart, our apologies, but man, he looks intimidating.
5. Will Muschamp, Florida
6 of 10Thereโs a little bit of speculation on this one, but Will Muschamp had a reputation of getting fired up on the sidelines as the defensive coordinator at Texas and Auburn.
He loves to head butt and chest bump players, but if he has to get in their faces, he will.
Heโs a real player's coach, but his passion spills out on the sidelines.
Hard to imagine heโll bottle up that emotion now that heโs a head coach.
4. Greg Schiano, Rutgers
7 of 10Greg Schianoโs fiery personality was once the key component in rebuilding a Rutgers program into a modicum of respectability.
Now heโs just mad he didnโt take that Michigan job after the 2007 season.
Heโs a beat-down coach making millions and knows he wonโt win again unless he gets the heck out of Rutgers.
3. Steve Spurrier, South Carolina
8 of 10Maybe Steve Spurrier has mellowed a little as heโs gotten older and wiser, but what college fan hasnโt seen him throw his visor at least once?
His intensity for the game is never more on display than when his quarterback makes a bone-headed play.
Ah, the stories Stephen Garcia could tell about Spurrier.
2. Mike Stoops, Arizona
9 of 10Mike Stoops is an intense coach.
Next time you watch the Wildcats on TV, you are almost guaranteed to see a guy who is raging and whose head will explode at any moment.
Has anyone recommended a good anger management program for this guy?
1. Bo Pelini, Nebraska
10 of 10No one even comes close to Bo Peliniโs intensityโthis guy is crazy.
But if youโre a Nebraska fan, you have to love him. Heโs passionate about winning, his players and the school.
You canโt ask for much more out of your coach than that.
