Peak 55: best five-season stretch, 1958–1960 at New Mexico and California (16-13).
Career 53 (#435 since 1936): total accomplishment over 11 seasons (45-60), 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.
