Tribune Reader's Poll: Best coach in Bay area history

[Ricky the Bull]

Jim Leavitt one of the options.

[TRUTH D. Antagonist]

voted Leavitt, but Dungy wins this one easily without a STAMPEDE.

[___ Eats It]

I love CJL, but there's no doubt it's Dungy.

[Triple B]

I voted for McKay. To get that trainwreck of the Bucs to one game away from the Super Bowl in only their fourth year of existence was masterful..... but, honestly, a poll like that that doesn't include Eddie Firmani is totally bogus.

What about Brandon High's wrestling coach, Russ Cozart?

Good to meet another fannie.

as much as i love Leavitt....you cant deny it is Tony Dungy.  its a disgrace that Jon Gruden is actually mentioned on t here.

[Bulls On Parade]

No Ray Perkins thats a bogus poll  ;D

I like Dungy as much as anyone, but get a clue.

Why is it undoubtedly Dungy?

Dungy- Made the playoffs 4 of 6 years, no titles, no super bowls, 2 total playoff games won

Now look at Tort- Made the playoffs 4 of 5 years, one cup

How can people say that Dungy is without a doubt better than Tort?

And that's just John. Now let's look at the obvious answer, Tim Marcum. He won 3 titles in 12 years, and 6 10-win seasons (out of 14 games, most years) Half of his seasons were 10-win seasons, and he's only had two losing seasons.  Oh, and he's in this little thing called the Hall of Fame....nobody else comes close to that.It's a joke that he's not even on the poll.

It's a disgrace Gruden is mentioned on there?

DUNGY - 56-46, made playoffs 4 of 6 years, two postseason wins, one division title, zero NFC titles, zero championships

GRUDEN - 51-50, made playoffs 3 of 6 years, three postseason wins, three division titles, one NFC title, one championship

After looking at the stats, I see your point....I can't believe TBO put Gruden in the same poll as Dungy!
