Former Georgia offensive line coach Sam Pittman has been named as the best college football head coaching hire of the past five years. Pittman has helped turn around the Arkansas Razorbacks football program. He brought back much needed physicality to Fayetteville.
Additionally, Mike Farrell considers former Georgia defensive coordinator Mel Tucker to be the second best hire of the past five years. Tucker and Michigan State were one of college football’s most surprising teams last season.
Kirby Smart’s coaching tree has grown significantly over the past several seasons. Most recently, former Georgia defensive coordinator Dan Lanning accepted the Oregon Ducks’ head coaching job.
