re: Nielsen must be a home run hire.

It will excite me if they actually sign him. If it drags on in the courts over his contract with the Saints and we end up not getting him it will be disaster. Why is it we don't know about these things beforehand? Why do we only end up with two candidates for major positions and if they fall through we have nothing? As many millions as the Athletic Dept. has in it's budget and as many people as they employ, shouldn't they always have a list of up and coming coaches that they constantly evaluate and update? Shouldn't they know which ones are viable and which are not?
