Peak 66: best five-season stretch, 1963–1967 at Tulsa (35-17), taking over an average program.
Career 62 (#309 since 1936): total accomplishment over 8 seasons (45-37), 0 national titles, 0 elite seasons; full credit for the program he inherited.

Rating = who he is: his whole head-coaching career (since 1936), weighted toward recent years — how far his teams stood above their contemporaries, how much he lifted programs, his great seasons and titles. Form = the last two seasons. Career = the all-time ranking number.
