Ranking of all time OSU Football coaches

Curious to the answers on this one. On another site it is interesting how people will get almost violent if they feel you are not respecting their favorite properly.

If this is somewhere else just shut this down and direct me as I am curious.

I would need to do some research. But pure success I kind of feel Urban is first and Woody second with the Sweater man 3rd. But I could be skipping some old timer that many loved...ect.

Now one could say that Woody created that which is the modern OSU football powerhouse. So he sits on top forever and everyone must bow to him. And honestly, on pure stories alone he is one of my favorite coaches. He was part genius and part insane person. As my wife says all the time the line between genius and crazy is a very very very thin one.

DB Sonny Gordon (1986 captain, R.I.P.)

Didn't find a thread about Sonny but after learning he had passed I wanted to recognize him. Sonny played DB during my time at OSU. His biggest moment was blocking a punt for a safety in the Shoe as the Bucks upset #1 Iowa, 22-13 in 1985.

He spent a few years in the CFL after one year with the Bucs. He died last week after a three-year battle with ALS. Sonny Gordon was 57 years old.
