Taking Charlie's list (which is a good one, I must say): The Splash hires: 1) Jim Harbaugh - I wouldn't mind this one, but I think if he leaves the NFL it's for Meeechigan 2) Jon Gruden - Ugh. No. Talk about a guy who can't develop QBs. Just look at his record with the Bucs. Anyway, don't think he's leaving his cushy position any time soon.
The Former Gators; 1) Joe Wickline - I'm not familiar with what he's doing now/where he is 2) Kerwin Bell - A sentimental favorite, but I don't know that Foley could take that chance after Muschamp 3) Brian Schottenhiemer - I love the thought of Schottie, plus he learned under the master (SOS) The Retreads; 1) Bob Stoops - He's not leaving. 2) Steve Spurrier - See above. And we Gators need to stop being like Bama and Bear Bryant. SOS is gone. Let's let him go. Other Coaches; 1) Dan Mullen - That's who everyone is clamoring for, but I have heard lots of talk that the money Gator Boosters do not like him 2) Sumerlin (TXAM) - I'm not sure he'd leave? Maybe we should go after his OC. 3) The guy at Michigan St (Donatello or something like that) - D'Antonio. Interesting thought. I don't know enough about his background, but there is a long history of Michigan State guys making the jump to the SEC and doing well... 4) Rich Rodriquez - His time at Michigan troubles me with this choice, but maybe he was never really given a chance. Not sure I know enough about his time there (other than the losses).
