Since CJP is absolutely the real deal...

I'm throwing Tennessee into the SEC mix this year with GA,SC,FL and yes Mizzou based on Drew's decision to come back for his senior year.

So based on that let me update my top coach's list in the SECE..

1.Smart-killer recruiting class even though he loses the farm in team experience.
2. CJP- will have UT in top ten by Feb in recruiting...has amassed a terrific staff of southern boy coaches. Will bring a dominant defense to Neyland. Tennessee has more returning talent than you think.
3.Mullin-solid coach with solid credentials...FL will be a tougher rebuild than UT.
4.Muschimp-has done a great job in Columbia...great defensive mind...may finally have found the spot he belongs in.
5.BO-solid job putting together a string of late season wins...has the best qb in the SEC...game day prep suspect.
6.Mason-good defensive mind and recruiter...this is not your grandad's Candy...still lacks talent to win big.
7.Stoops-biggest choker in the SEC...worse than Butch ever thought of being...defense always suspect especially in late game situations...no proven qb.
