Josh Pate mentioned on his show the other day that he’s aware of who the primary target is.

Says he’s not sure if “the fit” is right and that it probably wouldn’t be in the top 15 names people would expect, but that it would turn heads around the sport. I’m wondering who really fits the criteria there?

Saban? No, he fits anywhere and has probably been mentioned, even in gest

Gruden? Can’t see it, doesn’t strike me as a cold weather coach

Meyer? I could see this as a possibility

Dillingham? Would match up with the “not sure fit is right”

Matt Campbell? Pate has an infatuation with him

My ultra dark horse- Chris Petersen.

Who are some out of left field hires I’m not thinking of here, because the insinuation is that it’ll be a splash out of left field

Josh Pate claiming he KNOWS who every major program is hiring is absolutely ridiculous, and yet people keep falling for it.

Deboer has been mentioned from the start. He was pretty specific that it was someone that hasn’t been rumored

I don’t think anyone took those rumors seriously.

If he took the job most would be astonished.

He didn’t claim to know who they’re hiring, he claimed to know who they’re zeroing in on. Like it or not he’s one of the most plugged in guys in the sport when it comes to having sources everywhere. He was obviously told not to leak the name as well

He’s also a Podcast host who makes money based on how many eyeballs and ears he brings.

Stop falling for his bullshite.
