I knows it's a lame thread but it's the off season!

He's got a shot. Pell didn't turn around just the football program. He had a major impetus in the expansion (and enclosure) of Florida Field.

We know you do.

 

[InstiGATOR1]

1. Spurrier
2. Meyer (I guess though in his typical pattern he hollowed out the program.)
3. Graves
4. Hall (Who won two SEC titles and conserved the program so there was something there when Spurrier got the job.)
5. Bachman (I guess, started fast and then faded.)

Can't have Mullen on there yet. Maybe when he finishes higher than 3rd in the East he can be considered.

The fifty years before Graves we had 10 AAs (most from obscure ratings) Graves 10 yrs produced 13. Two bowl games but none of in the BIG four. (Rose Orange Sugar Cotton) or Heisman winners. Graves made a real impact. And he brought us Steve Spurrier.
He won 70% of his games and took us to the Sugar and Orange Bowl and a total of five bowl games in 10 yrs where the previous 50 was 2.
I might say SOS, then Ray, then Urban. Then Hall/Charlie Charlie just thought he was allowed to play the game like it was being played
in Athens and Tuscaloosa and Knoxville etc. But he wasnt.

Yep. He convinced Ben Hill Griffin, Jr. to donate $10m to bowl in the south end zone, creating the sound trap that made it the loudest stadium in the nation and upgraded the locker & weight rooms to state of the art at the time. Pell also built the booster/Gator Club system into what is is today.

And years later when Ben Hill Griffin, Jr. was given some other award on the field he said, “I’m still a Charley Pell man!”

1. SOS

You could put Graves #2. Without him then no SOS. No Urban, no Timmy ect, ect. Without SOS we are Ole Miss. Graves #2!
