I'm probably guilty of the nostalgic bias over the recency bias myself but I'd have Treliving in round three of this. I'm certainly not doing that for any other reason other than I think he's better than the rest of the list.

I’m definitely guilty of nostalgia bias. I remember when I enjoyed watching the team the most and judge those associated with it more favorably in these types of exercises. But I also feel there is some correlation to team success within that.
BT does also get one benefit here that no one else does, as fans can anticipate some sort of future success for which he would appropriately be considered responsible for. All the other guys, save Fletcher, were fired.
