Two different awards. This one is sponsered by Home Dept...basically a ESPN award.

The Paul Bryant Coach of the Year award is from the National Sportscasters and Sportswriters Association.

so is it safe to say that the Bryant Award is a hell of alot more prestigious because of who awards it?

Hard to say where this one falls in terms of prestige. Maybe a good comparison would be this...

He's also a finalist in the Liberty Mutual Coach of the Year...

Liberty Mutual = Sundance film award
Home Depot = Golden Globe
Bryant = Oscar

Since the Emmy's are for TV shows...we'll call that the award for the Coach of the Year in FCS (Div II)
