College football has rightfully become a more player-centric sport in recent years, thanks to the transfer portal and NIL. But the spotlight is never far from the coaches, especially as the season winds down and awards week nears.
It's time to recognize the top coaching performances around the sport for 2023. I have always tried to take a holistic approach toward evaluating coaches, especially for end-of-season recognition. Awards shouldn't only go to coaches whose teams overachieved. It's ridiculous that no Ohio State coach won Big Ten coach of the year between Earle Bruce in 1979 and Ryan Day in 2019.
