EDDIE ROBINSON COACH OF THE YEAR FINALISTS NAMED

The Football Writers Association of America has named the six finalists for this years Eddie Robinson Coach of the Year award. The finalists are Mack Brown, Pete Carroll, Karl Dorrell, George O'Leary, Joe Paterno, and Charlie Weis. We imagine that this list was compiled before USC humilated UCLA... or there was a requirement to include one African-American coach on the list in honor of Robinson (which is tough given the dearth of A-A head coaches).
