There have been some really good coaches on TUF, who's been the best?
IMO it's GSP, he's outclassed Koscheck constantly over the series. Rashad was also a great coach, and something tells me Greg Jackson had something to do with GSP and Rashad being such great TUF coaches.
I went with GSP... look at the people he brought in for his guys!! Plus he was always there for them, and always on time. It was close for me though... Tito was also a VERY good coach on TuF.

Yeah Tito was great, it made me almost like him....then he went back to his old self.
Tito Ortiz. Maybe it's just how the show was edited, but he was the first coach to really embrace the training side of it. I thought that part was awesome.
I figured GSP would be on top considerig how many huggers he has.
But Forrest Griffin took a guy with no professional MMA experience and beat several guys that are currently on or were on the UFC roster that had much more experience and athletism. Amir Sadollah suprised everyone and Forrest Griffin's role as a coach should not be over looked.
People forget that Griffin got both his guys to the finals, but Jesse Taylor acting like a moron on his own stripped griffin of this.
GSP was a good sparing partner that brought in other great coaches but bringing in other guys does not mean that tranitivally GSP is a good coach, while Forrest Griffin acted like a real coach and destroyed a well gifted team Rampage. GSP's team did so well because Koscheck's team gave up and shared a similar attitude with there coach.
For me it is Griffin, end of discussion.

I'm far from a big fan of GSP but he was a great coach.
Tito without a doubt. Why? because he didnt only properly train his fighters but also took care of them after the show and also showed alot of the mental aspect of MMA when training them.

Prob both.
IMO, GSP, doesn't only give them great advise, confidence, and probably the best sparring partner, but he also believes in his fighters, no matter what the odds. IMO that is something alot of coaches don't have. I know for sure Chuck does. But I think that is something to be greatly valued, his fighters are very deep(Brookins, LeRoy, Mckenzie) and I think GSP believing in them was a big factor in all their fights. SO yea, he is a great coach, one of the best, there is no denying that. . . .IMO. . -_-
