Not Overreacting Just Curious

I don’t expect Jimmy to be gone after this year unless all chaos ensues. Just as a hypothetical though, if he was released who would be some realistic head coach candidates you could see us replacing him with?

    If it gets to the point that Jimmy is fired this year, we'll be back in "no one wants the washington job so we did our best" territory, similar to when we hires Sark.

    So it will either be an unimpressive hc at another school like Juatin Wilcox, a guy who has been recently fired from a blue blood program like Gus Malzahn, or a coordinator who has had one or two somewhat impressive seasons like when we hired Sark before.

    Not that I don't think anyone other than Jimmy and anyone on his staff would be an upgrade right now but it's a wasteland out there and I think no one wants to be a college football coach now because it's turned into such a shit show. Auburn hired Harsin. Texas hired fucking Sark. Miami hired Manny Diaz. Apparently all of these teams wanted Cristobal who valued making schemes to make OLineman look better than optimizing Justin Herbert.

    I looked at who else was hired as a new coach in 2020 to see who might have been an option other than Jimmy and it's a joke.

    I honestly have no idea who they could or would hire but I would think a Sark in 2009 vibe is probably most-likely.

    I am sure that most coaches would love to come here - the press sells this place

    Might want to consider the Montana coach.
