Who’s the Best Active Head Coach in College Football?

In case you missed it, there’s a poll on CBS Sports.com asking, “Who’s the best coach in college football?”.

So far, Coach Tressel leads the pack, followed by Pete Carroll.

It’s interesting how many of the candidates have Ohio ties.

Buckeyes in MLL

Four former Ohio State men’s lacrosse players are on Major League Lacrosse rosters for the 2008 season. A trio of Buckeyes – Kevin Buchanan, Greg Bice and Anthony Kelly - play for the Los Angeles Riptide, while Shaun Lyons is a member of the Philadelphia Barrage.

Following his senior season this year, Buchanan was drafted by the Riptide fifth overall, the highest MLL draft pick in Buckeye history. The 2008 Great Western Lacrosse League Player of the Year and a second-team All-American, Buchanan has played in four games for the Riptide, scoring three goals and adding three assists for six points. He has five groundballs and 20 shots.

Kelly, a Buckeye from 2000-03, is in his third year with Los Angeles. He has seen action in all six games and has won 93-of-191 faceoffs (48.7 percent). He has 28 groundballs and has chipped in two goals.

Bice, a Buckeye from 2001-04, the 2004 GWLL Co-Player of the Year and a two-time All-American (second team 2004, honorable mention 2003), was named to the 2007 MLL Western Conference All-Star team. He has played for the Riptide in all six games this season and has 12 groundballs, along with one goal and four shots. He is in his third year with the Riptide and spent 2004 and ’05 on the Philadelphia roster, seeing action in just one game.

Lyons, a Buckeye from 2001-04 and an honorable mention All-American as a senior, is in his third season in the MLL. He has played in three games for the Barrage this year and has six shots. He played two games for Long Island in 2004 and saw action in three games for Philadelphia in 2007. He began 2008 with Long Island before joining the Barrage.
