317. Benjamin "Coach" Wade (South Pacific, 2nd place)

South Pacific is Coach's worst incarnation by far, and those who disagree are just wrong, end of story. He works so much better when he's inadvertently being a completely over-the-top goofy character than when he's trying so hard to be a strategic mastermind. He started off pretty good, being obviously disliked by his tribe simply because of his reputation, but, unlike Russell, actually working hard to try to change their minds, and ended up becoming the leader of the tribe. Unfortunately, as he did in his previous two season, he found a young, fragile girl and decided that she was going to be his punching bag for the season and make her life miserable until the tribe finally voted her out. Oh, and the whole religion crap totally ruined the season as well. I consider myself a somewhat religious person and I do pray, but I don't make a big f***ing deal about it like he did, and practically force everyone else to join in. Even with these shortcomings, Coach was still in my top 7 or so for the season simply due to how awful the cast was, until the day after the finale. He totally went on a Sophie-bashing streak, sitting around telling everyone how she didn't deserve to win and he played the best game and only lost because Ozzy was bitter. I seem to remember him being a part of the whole "no bitter juries" thing when he voted against Russell, so he's being very hypocritical in this sense, and that really hurts my opinion of him and how he played the game this time.


316. Gregg Carey (Palau, 6th place)

What's there to say about Gregg... He has an interestingly-spelled name. He was in a boring showmance. He got perhaps the least screen time of any alpha male ever to be on the show (and considering he was on the dominant tribe that's even worse). Gregg is the very definition of a casting dud. The guy actually looks like he could be fairly entertaining, but he had such a bland personality in a season that had a lot of over-the-top characters that they just had nowhere to put him. I think I said earlier that the whole season would have been done a favor if Jonathan and Kim had been dropped out of the cast and they started with 18 without the two eliminated right off the bat twist, but Gregg is probably pretty interchangeable with Jonathan in that hypothetical situation.


315. An ethnic minority who was the first jury member of their season
314. An ethnic minority who was an early jury member, but not the first
313. A forgettable young, female early boot
312. A medivac
311. Someone who I really grew a liking to over the course of their season, but have to rank them this low due to their completely abysmal boot episode
