Coach Hill Not a Finalist

[Chex]

If you need any more proof that there is an East Coast bias, beside the fact that six CAA teams made the playoffs, and the commentators complained they weren’t all seeded, it’s that Coach Hill did not make the 15 finalists for Coach Of the Year.

How quickly they forget JMU needed a bailout call on a blocked field goal return and a few other questionable calls to survive last year’s quarterfinal.

By far and away, Coach Hill deserves Coach Of The Year. The program was lower than a gopher’s basement after the John L./Sears debacle.

Jay Hill is the greatest coach in the world!! That being said, I am okay with him not getting love for coach of the year. I do not want anyone to know about Jay Hill. I am very concerened about other schools (see USU) stealing our good coach.

To not even be a finalist for the award is an insult to him, the team and everything they accomplished this year.

How he didn't even win a share of the Big Sky Coach of the Year leaves me completely speechless. In the past three seasons, he's won the Big Sky twice and gone to the FCS playoffs all three times. Yet he somehow has never won this award. Do other coaches in the conference have some kind of beef with him that we don't know about (since they vote for the awards)?

I can understand Hawkins winning it, but what did Best do that Hill did not?
