With the win against Bama yesterday, I think an argument could be made for Heupel being our best coach since Fulmer. However, Butch won all 3 bowl games, while Heupel is 0-1. Butch also had back to back 9 win seasons and beat Georgia, which Heupel hasn’t done. However, Butch never beat Alabama, so I’d say those two things cancel each other out. Also, both beat Florida. What do you guys think? Has Josh surpassed Butch yet, or does he need more time?

Oof.

Butch didn't go to a bowl game to lose his first year.

No comparison. Butch had talent, he didn't out coach anybody. Heupel is a coach, he out schemed the great bama defense all game. We needed a 2 point conversion that was executed beautifully, butch would be blaming the loss on his chart, because there's no way he does that. Heupel, with 25 seconds called two plays that put us in the spot to beat bama. Butch would've taken a knee for overtime. There's no comparison, Heupel is miles ahead.

Hyp is a real players FB coach. Butch is a used car salesman masquerading as a FB coach. Butch is the first coach Ark State has had in awhile than isn't being poached by a P5 school after 2-3 seasons. He will probably be there till they run him off.

Butch also oversaw the worst season in school
History. The bar is not that high for Heupel to surpass Butch.
