Never seen that “drivers seat” be an advantage in hiring anyone. Florida fired shark humper mid-season and had to get no’s from Chip Kelly and Scott Frost AFTER the season before hiring their third choice who was always available. One could point out USC doing it early and ending up with Lincoln Riley but I’d counter that they could have fired Helton an hour before that motivated hire. It was either them, LSU or the NFL imo.Jamey Chadwell should get a look. Of course Matt Campbell will get a look. Mark Stoops should get a call. Kalani Sitake at BYU would be another guy I'd look at. Lance Leopold is another guy.
They were smart to go ahead and pay the man and be in the driver's seat first.
That's a good point. The one good thing about holding onto Frost is they didn't have to contend with USC, Oklahoma, Notre Dame, LSU, etc last year.Never seen that “drivers seat” be an advantage in hiring anyone.

So far. Member this time last year, if you had said Florida, Notre Dame and Oklahoma would have job openings?That's a good point. The one good thing about holding onto Frost is they didn't have to contend with USC, Oklahoma, Notre Dame, LSU, etc last year.
This year should be a much less crowded field of big time schools.
Meyer's TRUE dream job is Notre Dame.... run by an outfit that REALLY knows how to cover-up awful sexual behavior.
It might take a couple of years but I'd not be surprised to see Urban in South Bend.
