I think it should be Charlie Strong or Kirby Smart. Honestly, I think I would pick Charlie Strong because of his head coaching experience and I am curious if Smart's success is due to coaching under Saban. If Saban was an offensive guru I would think otherwise but that isn't the case.

While I think Kevin Sumlin is a very capable coach, he would be good if A&M was still in the big XII. He is an offensive guy and if A&M is to compete they are going to need a defensive mind.

Smart. Strong would be in over his head in the SECW.

Kevin sumlin went 5-7 without Keenum. And it was holgerson who groomed him. Keenum is pretty much a finished product this year. I think he's a pretty big risk, especially since he'd be bringing a wide open attack to a division with the two best defenses in cfb for the next few years.

Is sumlin supposed to be a great recruiter? That's a must for a&m.

How much is Strong's buyout, didn't he just sign a 7 year contract?
