Close second? Terry Shea for being a completely imcompetent fool. No idea why Cam Cameron has Shea as a coach under him, clearly not working well.

Probably because Cam Cameron is a crappy head coach. He went 18-37 at Indiana despite having a 1st team all-American at QB (Antwaan Randle El) and a future Pro-Bowl DE who is 5th on the all time Big Ten sack list (Adewale Ogunleye).

Yeah its a tough conference but there is no excuse for how bad his teams were.

I have a strong suspicion that you'll back away from this position sometime next year. My nominee:

I'm going to vote for Wannstedt just because of the quotes his guys were giving after tonight's game.

[ QUOTE ]
"We were going for the win, it was crunch time and I guess people wanted to go home or something," Collins said. "It just didn't go the way we wanted to go. Do I wish we could have run the ball with me or LeSean? Most definitely, but you've got to respect the play call and that's our coach."

[/ QUOTE ]

[ QUOTE ]
"I can't say much as a player. You always go with the plays they call. ... There's no use pointing fingers at anyone," Bostick said. "We can look at the film and say we could have done many things different."

[/ QUOTE ]

Now that's a coach who has the full respect of his team.

I'll go with Bill Callahan. He is currently in the process of running Nebraska football straight into the ground like he did with the Raiders, after taking Jon Gruden's team to a Super Bowl, they went 2-14 or something ridiculous like that the next year.

Art Shell was easily one of the five greatest O-Linemen I've ever seen (probably top three, maybe even #1).

He's also a fabulous O-Line coach.

But as a head coach, he was worse than all the other coaches in this thread put together.

This screams out for some kind of statistical analysis. I would start by looking at W-L records before, during, and after each coach's tenure. This is actually not that difficult to do on pro-football-reference.com.

So, who wants to get the ball rolling?
