The short list?
« on: October 06, 2012, 05:53:05 PM »
Who is available?  Who would come?  Who would you want to see replace Chiz?   I don't think the question is "if" anymore, but "when".

I'll be honest and say I don't really have a name in mind.  I think everybody would like a  HC with a track record of success, but who fits that bill that would leave their current situation?  What about a hot assistant?  Who?

That would be my list but without replacing the abortion of an AD we have then we get none of the above.

I just got back home from watching this bullshit in person. Right now, I don't care who it is - let's fire up the jet & get it done. I wouldn't care if it was Bobby Petrino at this point. Whoever it's going to be, let's go ahead and get his name on a contract.

I think he likes the relatively low pressure of his current gig.

Won't happen but:  Nick Saban

Don't like him but the dude can coach and he has his teams ready to play.

Plus the meltdown in turdtown would be epic.

Not gonna happen, but someone off his coaching tree?  Those in football know who is the real deal, and who isn't a real up and comer of the guys that work/have worked for him.  Kirby Smart?  Some think he's not really ready or the guy, others do.  I don''t know.  But we're the kind of job he's holding out for. 

Could Tracy Rocker be ready to take a HC job in college?  I damn sure would like a team that mirrored his intensity, but don't know if he's ready for the head job.

Anybody (with staff) has to be better.

If fired does anybody hire CGC? ( Not that I care)

Like Coker, and Dubose will work as a HC in obscurity at lower levels, or a DC in D1.

If you could pull him from TCU, then you throw the bank at Patterson.

Otherwise...Petrino is the homerun.

Paul Rhodes the safe pick.

Charlie Strong would be my #2B pick.

I'm in the Patterson club as well but I doubt there will be a change for a while in spite of the mountain of problems this program has.
