Dantonio beat urban a couple times, is he better than urban, especially given the talent disparity?

Urban is far from a shyt coach, he recognized he’s going to have to go on the road and grab capital “D” dudes, and he did that and assembled some good coaches, but he also had a talent advantage to most of the big ten so he could field way better teams
Kirk Ferentz beat Urban big once too. I mean every great coach loses a game here or there to a coach who they're better than.

That's why I'm saying it can't be discounted that Harbaugh went 0-7 but there are a lot of factors at play that also need to be considered when comparing them.

In terms of a pure football coaching skill, I'd argue Harbaugh has the edge if you want to consider how he could coach in the NFL, where there is more parity, whereas Urban got his ass kicked big time there.

True. That's why I kind of always looked at Pete Carroll different than Nick Saban

That’s why I’m a big proponent of wins are important but context matters too
