Fascinating intrigue right now with Wisconsin and Michigan competing for the same pool of coaches.

Also Chryst wanted the job after BERT left but Alvarez did not pursue him as a candidate bc Graham had just bolted from Pitt after one season.

Doeren from NC State and NIU (was a DC under Bret) should be very much in the mix.  Hasnt done much at NC State yet but its only year 2 of a bad program. He is a Badger Man.

While it doesn't shock me at all that Wisconsin and Michigan would be trying to draw from similar pools, if in the end they went with Schiano and we - by default - did not, I would not be sad at all. In any case, I sort of wish Pelini would spurn Youngstown State in favor of this - I would watch the Nebraska-Wisconsin game with a huge bag of popcorn in that scenario.

Chryst is the obvious choice here, right? 

Schiano may be a dick, but he turned around the most moribund team in FBS.  I believe he will win at Wisconsin.  I just can't bear the thought of him coaching Michigan.  He gives New Jersey meatheads a bad name.

Is Alvarez playing puppet master with his coaches? Just seems odd that Anderson left so soon and for Oregon State?! Schiano wants a job so bad he would probably put up with it.

I love it. Alvarez has no idea what's going on but "SCHIANO APPEARS TO BE HIGH ON UWs LIST"

I wonder who's putting that shit out there? I hope this guy is out of football forever.

I had pegged Anderson as a possibility for us a week or so ago. I think he fact that he chose osu so quickly would indicate that Hackett believes he has someone locked up that he think highly of. Whether that is JH, miles, or mora well see. I've said it before and will again that schiano is a good coach and I think he'd be a great hire at Wisconsin. I think he'd be a good hire at michigan. Hackett likely has a larger fish wrapped up tho. If schiano accepts the Wisconsin job in the next week, I'd say we should all feel very comfortable with our new unknown coach!

Oregon State, Florida, and Nebraska have all made hires before us. If Wisconsin happens to make a hire before us, how obvious would it be that we are waiting for someone?

Watch since we are cursed and we cant have nice things, Schiano will go there and win big ten titles..then we are going to sit here and cry why we didnt offer him..with our luck lately I would not be surprised if such hire worka against us ala RR at Zona

step 1: Hire Schiano's agent

step 2: Get my name inserted into every vacancy for every high-paid job in America

step3: Wait until someone's dumb enough to bite.

Then when you get old: Step 6: create a social media account. Step 7: Post random teams offered random HCs their open HCing position to get attention. Step 8: Repeat step 7 and somehow STILL have everyone repeating what you said and believing you and judging that team you made crap up about.

Chryst and Bevell (Seahawks OC, former UW QB) seem to be the popular candidates among Wisconsin faithful. Both would be good for fits for them...at least as far as I can tell.
