Klatt’s Top 10 Head Coaches in College Football

Fox Sports’ lead College Football analyst Joel Klatt ranks the Top 10 head coaches in the sport following the 2025 season. He dives into where to rank the 4 active National Championship-winning coaches - Curt Cignetti, Ryan Day and Kirby Smart and where Dabo Swinney now sits among the CFB hierarchy. He discusses where to rank young coaches like Notre Dame’s Marcus Freeman and Oregon’s Dan Lanning and whether new LSU coach Lane Kiffin and new Michigan coach Kyle Whittingham made the list. He also includes a Big 12 Coach that Klatt points out has had more success in recent years than just about any other in the sport.
