I think you know what you get with Campbell. Probably consistently 8-9 win seasons. every few years he could get a 10+ with a Pac 12 and major bowl appearance. That doesn't really excited me all too much, it basically just seems like a diet Petersen.
I would rather get Stoops/Napier but I know its less than a 1% chance of either at this point.
Slightly off topic but is Harbaugh's job in jeopardy after he gets plungered by Ohio State again? Campbell would absolutely take the Michigan job.
Campbell is the only one with any kind of a track record. The others are hopeful shot in the darks to have any consistency.
If we? aren't gonna be "tuff" again then I like any of the 3. But DeBoer the most because he's the most realistic of the bunch.

Campbell is the lowest risk out of all of them and with the longest track record. He doesn't have any West Coast ties but he is a good recruiter. Seems like the kind of coach who takes a little while to get going (a rich man's Dave Clawson?) and that may not fit the timeline because the opening would be great if USC can't get it together, Cristobal leaves Oregon, and UCLA fires Chip Kelly this season or next season.
I have put quill to papyrus in the candlelight for DeBoer, crumpling most of it up but sending a few to him with a hint of my cologne. Love the upside and really like his coaching staff but he has the least overall experience. He does, however, have a relationship with Tedford and has 5 years of experience recruiting at the West Coast (3 as an OC / QB coach and 2 as a HC). Offense is the immediate concern of this Huskies team and where more of the transfers could happen so he makes sense there while his DC (William Inge) looks to have taken the next step in 2021.
Due to a lack of P5 experience, he is the riskiest but the dude wins pretty big. He'll probably win next week at SJSU (Haener has been banged up so a little extra time off will have helped him before the game as well as time off before the bowl). He's also the cheapest so he could poach staff from other Pac-12 schools with bigger offers (doubling a few key salaries). I'm sure DeBoer would accept a $4.0 million / $4.5 million dollar a year deal with some nice incentives because he'd renegotiate anyway after two years if he's reloaded the offense and gotten the most out of the D talent (particularly the DL).
