Ole Miss has had a football program since 1893 and since then they have had 38 coaches. Since 1993, any coach they have had has only been around for roughly 50 games, other than David Cutcliffe who coached in 73 games for the Rebels.

The Rebels have only had one head coach be inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame and that was Johnny Vaught who coached in 263 games and went 190-61-12. He coached from 1947 to 1970 and then spent just one year with the Rebels in 1973.

So Vaught was one of the greatest, if not the greatest coach in Ole Miss history. What about the ones that weren't so great? Here is who I believe were the three worst head coach hires in Ole Miss football history.
