Coaching search crowdsourcing

Submitted by Ben Mathis-Lilley on

Let's see if we can make this work. I'll post potential coaching candidates, one per reply to the OP. Upvote/downvote based on whether you would want them to be coach (not feasibility). Reply to the post with the coach's name to discuss that person.

I was high last night and thought about Belichick for HC. Brady could work with the QBs. Someone could persaude Tom to bring both of them here - they could retire from the NFL and come salvage this wreck of a program.

But again, I was high.

Harbaugh. Either one of them. Walk into their office with a blank check, tell them they can write whatever number they want on there, as long as they come to Michigan.

I know it's a pipe dream, but let me dream.

Either Harbaugh- San Fran/Baltimore

 

Jeremy Pruitt-D-cordinater Georgia, previously FSU

Gary Patterson- TCU

Les Miles-LSU

David Cutcliffe-Duke

Dan Mullen- The other msu

 

In that order. Hopefully the AD will give a call to the most qualified candidates this time!

Harbaugh or Miles or bust. They won't be long term, I suspect Harbaugh would eventually head back to the NFL and Miles is already getting up there. But at least they would get something respectable going for the next guy. Or you could go young and try to get someone like Sumlin or Kingsbury. Someone who has shown they can actually coach part of the game (WEAR A HEADSET BECAUSE THEY ARE INVOLVED IN THE GAME), build a great staff (at the highest levels of college football) and recruit.

Kliff Kingsbury.  QB whisperer, which is by far our biggest need right now.

I know he doesn't have head coaching experience, but I really like the idea of Scott Frost coming here, either as a head coach or OC. He's the OC at Oregon, so you know he'd bring a high octane offense. Played QB at Nebraska so he has Big 10 ties and would be able to mentor QB's.

Sorry guys, but we do need an offensive innovator. Traditional offenses just aren't getting it done anymore unless you have talent like an Alabama or Florida State.
