Sark has the best case as he made the playoff and beat Bama on the road. Gundy managed to knock off OU, but had 2 real pitiful loses, so I could see the argument between Brown and Gundy. But Brown didn't beat anyone of significance during the regular season himself. Hence, I just don't see how either deserve consideration over the coach of the conference champion, play off representative, and the team with the most impressive OOC win.Neal Brown. Sorry Gundy.
Which coach got the MOST out of their team with the expectations put on them? That would be Neal Brown. Picked 14th, Predicted to be fired. Ends up winning 9 games. Texas preseason #1 in the conference, OK State preseason pick #7.Sark has the best case as he made the playoff and beat Bama on the road.

I’m more impressed with Lance Leipold at Kansas and what he’s accomplished with that roster.Sark has the best case as he made the playoff and beat Bama on the road.

Everyone points to prognosticators picking WVU 14th as reason to celebrate. I look at them as idiots. How can they possibly pick 4 G5 schools ahead of WVU in their inaugural season at the P5 level? And yes, I thought it was stupid from the day they predicted it. If anything, it was an intentional slap in Neal Browns face and obviously indicative of the general consensus of how “insiders” feel about Brown at this level. That said, I’m glad he could shove it back in their facesWhich coach got the MOST out of their team with the expectations put on them? That would be Neal Brown. Picked 14th, Predicted to be fired.

The problem that Wvu had with the preseason prognosticators is very little recognizable names. No one knew who Garret Greene was and some of the other players on our team. I won't be surprised to see us somewhere near the top of the conference in the eyes of these Nostradamus's coming into the 2024 season. The respect Greene earned in itself will give Wvu a boost in the preseason rankings regardless of whether we are actually a better team or not.I’m more impressed with Lance Leipold at Kansas and what he’s accomplished with that roster.

Regardless of the Leipold vs Sark debate, neither Gundy nor Brown were clear favorites. I agree Gundy doesn't have much of a case for it, I just disagree with the OP premise that Brown has a much better case.I’m more impressed with Lance Leipold at Kansas and what he’s accomplished with that roster.
