    Might want to consider the Montana coach.

    Nope. He got fired at UNLV.

    Also, I also personally interviewed the man.

    Not Sexy but my first thought is they would reach out to Brent Brennan and Jay Norvell right away.

    Find and hire someone impressive from a lower tier. I dont care if he comes from high school. He needs to be full of energy, relatable, smart as fuck, and to be doing something truly impressive at whatever level he's working at.

    That's some hyperbole obviously. He needs to have some connections and a plan for how to fill out his staff too.

    There aren't any established, proven FCS coaches, former or present, who will be willing or appropriate. No fucking fired or failed coaches. No fucking coordinators living on easy street with rosters full of top 100 recruits. No fucking former UW assistants.

    People that are good are good at everything, at every level. A great football coach can get switched from offense to defense or from the lowest level to the highest and still thrive because good people do well at everything they do. It's really pretty simple.

    Jay Norvell will either go to Iowa when Ferentz hangs it up or be at Nebraska next year

    By the way Sark said that Texas is the type of job you can have for life. He was being slobbered over on the broadcast

    UW and USC are also jobs you can have for life. If you don't suck

    Not being plastered at booster meet and greets helps one not get fired as well

    I had that thought too but how does UW find $10 million to buy out Lake's last 3 years and then pay $7 million a year for Campbell to entice him?

    While there is still a lot of football to be played and the Michigan line is curiously tight (you're tellin' me there's a chance?), it doesn't hurt to come up with other names such as:

    -Luke Fickell (lesser salary than Campbell, great fit as a D guy and tOSU experience).

    -Kalen DeBoer (also an impressive background, in his second year at Fresno State so not a ton of time at D1 level).

    -Jeff Choate (turned around Montana State and never lost to Montana, very good recruiter, getting great experience at UT as co-DC with Kwat, great fit at UW and cheapest).

    -Jay Norvell (not that exciting but has been around a ton).

    The program needs an offensive minded coach. Fixing the fucking offense is priority no. 1. I'm good giving up 4 TDs as long as I get 5 or 6.

    We are looking at going into a full rebuild if this year ends up being .500. Just a matter of when UW pulls the plug on Jimmy.
