247Sports ranked the top-25 jobs in college football yesterday and had the Wisconsin job–obviously currently held by Paul Chryst–at No. 19.

Big Ten jobs ranked ahead of Wisconsin include Michigan at No. 16, Penn State at No. 12 and Ohio State at No. 3.
Chryst’s current home was also, somehow, ranked behind schools including Miami at No. 14 and Florida State at No. 11–both schools that haven’t been nationally relevant in years and don’t appear to have anything close to a shot at beating Clemson and winning the ACC.
Maybe the narrative around Wisconsin will soon change with the school set to bring in the current No. 14-ranked 2021 recruiting class and add the group to an already-impressive roster.
But if Chryst has done anything in his time at Wisconsin it’s win (a lot) without getting enough national praise. Has a conference championship eluded the program since 2011? Yes.
But looking into the future I don’t think I could find 15 jobs across the college football landscape better than Wisconsin.
