Not that I particularly care about what the $EC does, but a quick perusal of
http://www.sports-reference.com/cfb/coaches/urban-meyer-1.html
confirms that despite 3 NATIONAL TITLES, Urban Meyer does not have a single SEC or B1G Coach of the Year trophy for his troubles. The B1G and its fabled 'you did slightly better than your mediocre pre-season predictions' criteria are well-documented, but that just blows me away. Best team in the country? 3x. Best coach in the conference? 0.
