Who would play each SEC coach, including Tennessee Vols head coach Butch Jones, in a movie?

Recently I took the time to check out “The Founder”, the 2016 movie that tells the story about the origins of McDonalds.

While watching the flick, I realized that Michael Keaton, who stars in the movie, would do a tremendous job of playing Miami Hurricanes head coach Mark Richt in a movie.

This of course snowballed and I started a mental list of who would play each SEC coach in a movie.

Some were quite obvious. Others had me searching IMDB pages and consulting with some movie loving friends, trying to figure out who was best suited to play each SEC coach in a movie.

And here’s what I came up with.

Feel free to reach out to us on Twitter (@Tenntruth) and let us know your thoughts, and if you have a different actor in mind for any of the coaches.
