Coach of the Year

A primary vote gives a coach 2 pts and a runner-up vote gives a coach 1 pt. Most points wins. Since 6 people voted, 12 pts would be a unanimous selection.

Coach of the Year:

Coach of the Year: Bill (9 pts, 4 1st place votes)

Runner-Up: Hadyn (3 pts), Roger (3 pts, 1 1st place vote)

Also receiving votes: Tim (2 pts, 1 1st place vote), Darin (1 pt)

Bill's team won the regular season with an impressive 9-4-1 record considering he had to out-duel Hadyn's very strong team for that honor in addition to other strong divisional foes. Roger is an interesting case here with a team that made the playoffs on a .500 record and then stepped it up to contest a FLOF Bowl. An argument could be made that Roger had less talent on his roster then many other teams.

I think there are a lot of ways to try to judge success as a coach. Although I think my approach is a little flawed, I like to look at improvement from year to year. For that, Tim can't be beat. He took over a Brawlers team that was horrible and despite a rough start generally improved his team significantly on the field. Hadyn got my other vote. I know he won the FLOF Bowl last year but I think his team was much better this year and then what I felt was a rather average team last year that performed a bit above its head and did well in the playoffs.
