Del Rio?

Not sayin it's a slam dunk but seems like it could be a possibility

I think Miles could quiet a lot of idiots with a stellar OC hire.



But he could also turn a lot of reasonable people into crazies by doing nothing.

you guys could do alot worse than Miles.

I really strongly believe the criticism of Miles is ridiculous. I mean seriously what does the guy have to do to please so of you?

If he fires his OC and brings in a good one you guys are golden.

This is well-said. It is probably true. And it is the obvious road to take, but the fear along here is that Coach Miles has seemed to prefer taking the road less traveled in making decisions like these.

He hired Chavis and got rid of the co-DC.

He can start by not eating grass during nationally televised games

There are going to be posters like Llamma who will always hate Miles, regardless.

quote:

Not sure who would be REALISTICALLY be available


Off the top of my head:
Malzahn
Leach
Tubberville


I wouldn't like any of those hires, and I'd hate Leach and Tubberville. Malzahn would be ok with me, but not a slam dunk.

quote:

I know what I know about Whittingham, Fitzgerald, Sark, and Patterson


Are any of those realistic? And why does everyone like Sarkisian all of a sudden? What did he do this year?

I do like Fitzgerald though. Not sure how much of an upgrade, if any, it would be from Miles.

quote:

Del Rio


Again, not realistic. Look at who Florida and Miami had to hire. It will be interesting to see who Michigan ends up with if they fire RR.

Honestly, if I'm running Michigan's athletics, I want Miles. Look at the state of Big Ten football right now. Bring in a guy winning ten games a year, on average, in the SEC? And... He's a Michigan man?

Slam dunk!

my first 2 calls would have to be Peterson at Boise, and Patterson at TCU. They both may feel like the ceiling has been reached and only one way to go at those schools, down.

Not so much. All we need is another insufferable ego creating problems on the coaching staff. Maybe he was a team player at the NFL level, but I'm betting Muschamp puts up with him for at most 2 seasons before dumping him for thinking he knows more than the Head Coach.
