Here's a go-getter I like, from Maine (same age as Chip).

Too risky?

Good catch. I doubt Pool Boy can land a big name but I would like to see him hire a proven winner though.

Never heard of him, but he looks like an intriguing guy who will eventually coach a BCS team. It's pretty impressive he has built Old Dominion into a championship contender so quickly.

Check out a few of his pressers on Youtube...a little Harbaughesque

I'm sure there are many others, but this guy stands out for some reason

Playoff record is a little worrisome but definitely someone worth a look.

I don't need another Don James. There are many ways to win. Just hirer a winner.

I like that he's actually had to build a program from scratch. However I see he's an offensive coach so I'd pass.

I still like the Fresno State coach, he had good success at lower tier schools as a DC and now is winning as a head coach.

Old Dominion's schedule is on par with a Big East team...

Sat, Nov 09 Idaho at Moscow, Idaho 5:00 p.m.

That should be a telling game for their program. This guy seems like someone to watch although he isn't my second choice.

That guy doesn't know how to build from nothing the right way. He needs a few 7-6 records to prove he can build from nothing the right way.

Legitimate Question, folks.

Who is a proven winner that you would go after. Look through the top 20. Give me names.

Look -- I'm as disappointed as everyone else that we just can't seem to fucking beat oregon or take the next step. I'm at a loss for who I'd hire that fits your proven winner.

Seems like you have to take a flier on a guy and wait it out for a few years and then go for the next guy if he doesn't work out.

Lots of guys have flopped or failed to pan out. This is not an easy thing to identify. Who are the no brainers that would work out better than Sark? Guys you're SURE would work out...
