Georgia is No. 1 on the list. Insiders rave about its deep pockets, top-notch facilities, and passionate fan base. As a Big Ten assistant explained, Georgia is No. 1 because of the pool of money it has to pay, donor support, the facilities, and the ability it has to consistently compete for a national championship.
The Bulldogs’ recruiting base in the South and the NFL pedigree that they can sell to recruits make them one of the best places to work as a Football coach. The Bulldogs make good use of Georgia’s rich talent pool, producing 152 blue-chip prospects in recent cycles.
Two national titles since 2021 under Kirby Smart only solidify their appeal. Many even see Kirby as the new Saban.
Texas follows right after Georgia. Its strength lies in its seemingly endless resources and prime location. The Longhorns tapped into NIL early, once offering $50,000 yearly to offensive linemen through alumni support.
Joining the SEC has boosted Texas’s already massive budget, making recruiting a breeze. Steve Sarkisian’s leadership has the program firing on all cylinders, making it a dream job for any assistant coach.
