Who is the best in the SEC?

A study done by Phillip Marshall concluded the following:

"Twenty prominent columnist and beat writers, spanning every SEC state, responded to my request to complete a questionnaire on the best of the SEC. They were asked to rank the head coaches 1-12, offensive and defensive coordinators 1-3, to pick the assistant most likely to next become a head coach, the top Heisman Trophy candidate and the player most important to his team's success."
