Assuming one of the targets is still coaching in the NFL playoffs? If it’s who we think it is, fingers crossed it’s a few more weeks.

nobody wants to sign on to work for a lame duck coach
ETA: which is why I'm surprised Kevin Steele signed on to work for Germy Proot

There is no reason to rush. If they have done their due diligence and believe the guy they want is still coaching then you wait it out and get that guy. That’s what they did with Freeman. He was their top guy they waited for them to play their bowl game then they interviewed. He said no so now you go to number two and wait if you need to.

Maybe an nfl guy was his guy all along (behind Freeman). He had to go after the biggest college “fish”. That was Freeman. Make him say “no”. Well, they did and he did. Maybe O thinks Neilson is the next best. Try and hire the next best. There aren’t a lot of hot names left in the college ranks. Most of em, 90% of the rant would bitch about. There’s no way to make this board happy. Recruiting is essentially over. (For us, with Leigh gone, it is). There’s no need to panic or rush at this point. NOT A SINGLE FKING PERSON on this board can say who would be successful or not. No one coaches. 3/4 have never played. It’s a crap shoot.

Why are you rushing it? is there some immediate deadline? why would you not want your head coach to wait and interviews guys in the NFL playoffs? Usually if you make it to the second round, well you are doing something right with your position.

The Saints haven't won the Superbowl yet.

You better listen to the media more read more tea leaves on read the board a little more thorough. because about 90% already know the person that big O is going after and he is not available right now

No one wants the job if you ask Pat Forde

Let me see if I can get this straight.
1. CEO is criticized if he makes a quick hire or makes the easy choice and doesn't taking time to review several candidates.
2. CEO is criticized if he takes a long time to possibly wait for an applicant to come available or to interview several candidates.
I suspect that the OP would not have been happy if CEO waited until after the NCG was over to hire Nick Saban as the new DC when there were "Plenty of great DCs out there"

WTF is the hurry? Haste makes waste.

He didn’t have a backup plan for Freeman
