That would be a heady hire!

Rivals is reporting UC will be interviewing Bill Cowher, Pete Carol and Newt Rockne tomorrow.

You forgot about Don Shula, Bear Bryant, Chuck Knoll, and John Madden.

Update...they just threw Tony Dungy in there as well...looks like it is heating up guys!

Just kidding by the way, as if it wasn't obvious.

I am still hoping that it is true, although I highly doubt it, that Mike Shanahan will be meeting with MT tomorrow. Stranger things have happened?!?

My other list still looks good. Bud Foster would be a great hire, Mike Stoops, Bobby Hauck, Chuck Martin, Jerry Moore and Dave Christensen. Is there really no way MT has reached out to any of these, if not why? Hue Jackson, would be interesting.

Go Cats... 3 1/2 weeks and counting...co-national champs!

As all Universities are receiving Federal funds none of their employees, including the football and basketball coaches, should be able to make more than $500,000 a year, just like bank employees.

And no bonuses either.

Just because it hasn't leaked doesn't mean he hasn't contacted anyone on that list, does it?

I'd have to look deeper into his coaching style (spread vs pro etc.), but on the surface I'm liking Mike Stoops as a candidate. Having a direct "in" to Cardinal Mooney and the other Youngstown/NE Ohio schools would be great. I understand they have family in poor health, so the draw to Ohio would work in our favor (see Mark Stoops taking the YSU job).

IDK if he's a fit or not, but certainly worth looking in to.

You are very correct. It just seems funny the names that do surface...ie. Skip Holtz...PASS.

How about Hue Jackson. Former USC coord and everythings he touches turns to gold in the NFL

Picture of Mike Zimmer on the front of BCL and there is another new candidate that will SURPRISE you if his name leaks to the public.

What is his name?

[Thegreatone]

Somebody leaked that Shanahan might be interested.... I assume their is no other name.

My guess is that MT has been contacted by some people whose names would surprise us. We'll never hear about them, unless one is hired.

Nancy Zimpher!

Well, at least that would surprise me.
