The problem is, everyone knows who these folks are and will beat us to the punch. The more I think about it, the more likely it is we'll end up with a coach few of us will be all that enthusiastic about. It will all come down to whether or not Maturi make the hire. If it's his decision then we'll end up with someone who is willing to put up with all the non-revenue sports nonsense here in order to get the money and status that comes with being a big ten coach. Still, we might luck out and lure someone good, but I'm not gonna hold my breath.

The names that keep coming up (not counting those not presently coaching);

Tier 1. Present BCS coaches
Harbaugh
Peterson
Paterson
Might be hard to pry away, but there's always a chance.

Tier 2. Present D1 coaches not BCS
Sumlin
Golden
Hoke
Calhoun
All solid candidates

Bottom line; I'd be very happy with any of these.

Is Dan Mullen a legitimate candidate?
