Weis gets the most undue attention, but he hasn't really had a chance to fully insert his people and his system yet. So the verdict is still out.

I voted for Phil. He consistantly underperforms with some of the nations top talent.

Kirk is a close second with all the hype he got for having 2 decent seasons. What has he done with all top recruiting classes he's brought in?

And imo, Stoops shouldn't be on that list, he did pretty well this year for having a below average QB and not having AD for more than half the season.

Yeah, I considered leaving him off the list. I'd be surprised if he gets any votes, to be honest.

East pick for me with Chuck. For the amount of attention he has gotten for accomlishing nothing.You could also add a poll for most overrated football player of that last 5 years and put Brady Quinn on the top of that list. What an awesome performance he put on last night, that'll definitely cement him as the #1 pick of the NFL draft.

Yeah, I'd be surprised too...and to be perfectly clear about Fatty McDoughnut Chunks due to the two fat asses on the list, I voted for Weis. He's a clone of Willingham so far. 0-5 vs the top 10, 0-2 in bowl games, zero quality wins (except the USC loss last year, weak argument there), and squeakers this year alone to GTech, MSU, and UCLA...impressive.

Of the following 5 bowl losers, which is the most over-rated?

Chuckie, but only because his billing is so over the top. I think he's a good coach, but not nearly as great as the hype surrounding him. And I agree with the other poster who said the jury is still out on Weiss.

Iowa may have self-destructed this year, but I don't see anyone hyping the coach, either. I think they are definitely a better team with a better program than their season suggests. Whatcha gonna do? "Next season..."
