Available Coaches

I think its pointless to debate the qualities of the future coach since the discussion will have no effect on the actual decission. But I do think its interesting to see what other jobs are open aswell.

ESPN has a list going of Head Coaching Changes

Arizona State Dirk Koetter --

Florida International Don Strock --

Iowa State Dan McCarney --

Miami Larry Coker --

Michigan State John L. Smith --

North Carolina John Bunting --

North Carolina State Chuck Amato --

North Texas Darrell Dickey --

Arizona State Dirk Koetter --

Isn't Koetter the guy that turned Boise into a top 25 team? I guess that he has had problems adjusting to the game at ASU but he sure did a great job at Boise State. Maybe we should be looking at him?

Yes, from 96-97 Boise went 6-17 ( Houston Nutt coached them in 97). Koetter took over for the next 3 years ( 98-00) and went 26-10 with 2 BWC championships including a Bowl win over UTEP in 00. Do we have a new name in the hat ?

Looks like Gene Chizik (Texas D-Cord) is going to Iowa St..

Saw somewhere will go double check...

supposedly what triggered the Bennett situation was Coker being fired and Orsini wanting to bring him in. Ala Matt Doherty etc

Coker has a sterling rep, class guy and Texas ties

Sounds like what we are looking for

I wouldn't mind Coker, other than the fact that he let his team get out of control discipline wise, and we just got rid of a coach that had discipline problems at least in games. I think Coker will end up at a big school though.
