I truly believe that Cignetti is the only current coach that has a shot at dominating the game for any period of time.

He is doing it with mostly 3 star players that no one else wanted.In the final 4 he only had 7 bluechip players against the other three teams who had anywhere from 30 -60 blue chip players each he is far superior in knowing talent that other coaches just don't see.In my humble opinion he is the best coach in college football!

Too early to say he's the best. I could say he's been the best for two years, but that's not much to go on.
I've said it before…he reminds me of Bobby Knight in that he is hard nosed, knows how to coach the game, gets his players to buy into his ways, and wins with "lower" rated players. Will Cignetti start recruiting and getting 5 star prospects? I hope not, unless he's able to only get the ones willing to by into the team-first mentality.
Early indications are he's a heckuva coach but time will tell if all the hoopla is warranted.
You have to respect what he's done regardless of whether you like him or not. He's been a winner everywhere he's been now.
He spoke very fondly in that video about a couple seasons of his time spent at Alabama. Pretty fond memories for myself as well; I was in Atlanta for both the 08 and 09 SEC Championship games as well as in Pasadena for the National Championship against Texas. Nobody realized yet what the next 15 years of college football would look like for Alabama but I would've been happy if that was the pinnacle of the run walking out of the Rose Bowl that night.
Roll Tide!!

He is a good coach and comes from the Saban Coaching tree. I think he has put together a great team this year. Alot of the offense are Seniors this year and expected to move onto the NFL. I doubt he will put together as strong of a run next year. Expect to see Mike Shanahan move to his own team in 2027. And then expect to see Indiana fade from glory.
