It's Mike Gundy. He took over a bad Oklahoma State team. His record as a coach.
4-7
7-6
7-6
9-4
9-4
11-2
12-1
8-5
10-3
7-6
10-3
9-2

Big 12 Coach of the year in 2010
Paul Bear Bryant Award 2011
Eddie Robinson Coach of the year 2011

Now, understand this. Many of these wins came when Mack Brown was leading a very strong Texas team and Bob stoops was leading a very strong Oklahoma team. TCU was also very good at times in this tenure, and recently a strong Baylor team.

He runs great offenses. He's a high character guy. He's a consistent winner. At a top tier school with rich recruiting grounds, I think he does as good as anyone.

Another thing: you cannot doubt his desire to win and passion for the game. This guy needs a long hard look! I would love to have him if we can't get Tom Herman. I think he's far and away the 3rd best candidate that realistically lands here.

Same. Wonder if he'd be interested? I'd also take him over Dana.

Gundy is a great coach, but I don't know if he would leave his alma mater for another college job.

He currently makes 3.75 mil. I would throw at least 5 mil at him and get the negotiations under way. No doubt Oklahoma State would try to keep him and he might just get richer but it would be a great hire.

He belongs to the coaching tree of Bo Schembechler through Miles per wikipedia. Do not want.

I wouldn't say he took over a bad team. They had been to 3 straight bowl games with records of 8–5, 9–4, and 7–5. Mediocre maybe, but not bad.

Can you imagine how pissed Okie State fans would be if LSU steals another coach from them?

Actually, I think he'd be better than Jimbo.

I think Gundy would leave. Word was he and T Boone weren't on the best of terms which led to him looking at Arkansas when that job was open. He would be dumb not to take the job if offered.
