Yesterday we took a look at the 20 most feared high-major assistant coaches in recruiting circles. Today, after talking to coaches from throughout the country, we take a look at the 20 best high-major and mid-major head coaches on the recruiting trail.

1. John Calipari, Kentucky Wildcats
He’s at another level than everyone else. Seriously. It’s now an upset if he doesn’t get the top class in the country. Honestly, my 9-year-old daughter could work for Calipari as an assistant and still bring in elite talent. Calipari is that good in the recruiting game.
