Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
Tui being named interim is VERY telling in the coaching search

Along with the news of Keith Heyward heading to SC with Sark, this tells me Wilcox is not a candidate. If he was even in the running, he would be the shoe-in interim HC. Also, if Wilcox is not a candidate, neither is Nussmeier. Wilcox would have at least gotten a look had he been an option, but that's clearly not the case and Woodward is looking outside the coordinator world. Very good news IMO.
Couple names I've heard mentioned along with the obvious Petersen, Deruyter, etc. are Bill O'Brien from PSU and Gary Patterson from TCU. I'd go full-doog for Gary Patterson.
Goes along with what I've been thinking/saying the whole time. Woodward's gonna pull something nobody expected out of his ass and make a big name hire.

Link on heyward? First I've heard

Gary Patterson? Are you kidding me? The dude is Kyle Whittingham's twin. Good against little sisters of the poor, average in a BCS conference

O'Brien is getting paid over 3 million and has a big buy out. That's a lot of money for a relatively unproven coach, although he does look like a good one. I would be okay with Patterson as well, despite his struggles since moving to the Big 12.

Defensive genius. Has more than enough head coaching experience. Shit he won a goddamn Rose Bowl at TCU. He's far and away my top choice as of now. -
Heyward!!!!!! FYFMFE

By "link" I think he meant credible link.....ExtraChrisB said: -
Only thing about Patterson is that he already has a pretty damn good deal at TCU. They're a private institution so they don't have to release numbers, but he's making around $3m, so I think we'd have to go up to around the $4m range we were hearing with Mora. Open up the checkbooks Woody.
