Because that would seem to indicate there's no interest from quality guys.

That would be concerning. With our pay and location, we should be a top G5 destination. It would suggest there is some other dynamic/stigma that our brand is fighting.

What about Kasey Dunn the associate head coach at OK State? His name gets thrown around for P-5 OC positions.

I saw Long just retired at SDSU so that will likely have some impact on our search.

Are there any quality/splash hires even available, or have they all been snatched up?

I would separate the two.

You're free to do that, but I wouldn't automatically assume they are mutually exclusive.

I'm talking about a home-run hire that looks good to both the fans and the staff.

We both know there is a small army that is going to complain no matter what. But there were some incredible candidates - coaches that would have been very impressive to most people on every side - that have been snatched away.

I already know that Seth and Co will tell us the hire is "the perfect fit". It won't matter who they hire, or how their career looks thus far.

I could be off, but after this past season i would guess Seth is more concerned with finding someone who he is comfortable with running "his" system more so than someone who will come in "specializing" in something different.

Guessing we will hear something during the Coaches meetings starting this weekend

Which candidates should we have latched on to and where did they end up? Just curious as to who you are referencing.

A lot of KU fans mentioned this will keep Texas schools from poaching him. It seems it was a heavy possibility for a bit

Kit a has been dropped from the Cowboys. What about him?

Football Scoop is dedicated to following the coaching carousal. Will be worth digging through the timeline to see some names.

Would get Kitna in a heart beat!

I wonder if we are targeting this guy. He was let go from Arizona State this past season as their OC. He coached under Sonny Dykes at La Tech and Cal.
