FSU football: Ranking all top coaches in the ACC (2024)
By Kelvin Hunt
Brent Key (Georgia Tech) 11-10 overall, 9-6 ACC
It's the battle of the Brent's. I had Key at No. 11(out of 14 coaches) last year. Brent Key has seen a major turnaround in his year and a half at Georgia Tech. The Yellow Jackets looked doomed to only win a couple of games in 2022, but Key replaced Geoff Collins midseason and led the Yellow Jackets to 4-4 and 4-3 ACC.
He followed that up with a 7-6, 5-3 ACC season in 2023. Like Virginia Tech, the Yellow Jackets return much of the team that's had a big part in their turnaround. Georgia Tech plays hard and isn't an easy out for anyone, just ask Mario Cristobal and the Miami Hurricanes.
