Was hoping the would be some legitimacy until I saw Lane Kiffin and realized it was just a list of name that came up in a google search of "top new college coach hires"......

I assume you'd be talking about Brady Hoke here. I'd be open to it. One of the best recruiters in college football, but Michigan really tried to destroy him so they could let him go with "cause." Interestingly, his brother Jon was co=defensive coordinator for Spurrier at SC this past year.
No, complete joke about needing to hire someone with Iowa ties. Michigan seems to only want to hire guys with ties to their program, so it was a coincidence when I saw Hoke's name after posting. That said, I think Hoke would be great.
Like I said, Hoke has recruiting chops and was coach of the year in three different leagues for his turnaround jobs, but it would just have that KU-hires-out-of-work-Charlie-Weis feel to it. Still, it would probably be the biggest name you could get.
Agree on this. Currently makes 1.3 mil, but with all the openings this year he likely will have a lot of interest.
Rhule of Temple sounds like one of those games that are free to download on your phone, but then it's all in app purchases.
To Rucker Haringey or anyone else who is promoting Gene Chizik, you obviously have never met him or you have an intense hate for ISU.
Brady Hoke on Brady Hoke, Michigan, and why he wants a P5 job in 2016:

IMO we need someone who can develop talent. Hoke couldn't win in the Big 10 with 4 and 5 star recruits. How would he win here with 2 and 3 star guys?
I mentioned Hoke in another thread a couple months ago. I think realistic option and a good coach that could have learned from his firing from Michigan. My delusional pick is Mark Richt. Million to 1 chance. But when he gets let go from Georgia maybe he is looking for a job with limited expectations. Like I said delusional so don't rip me. But in the wisdom of Lloyd Christmas. "So You are telling me there is a chance."
He could have learned from his firing. But that's what we said with Mangino. We were all wrong about that.
One thing I really like about Hoke is that he's available immediately. Of course the coach of the year of three different conferences isn't so bad either. Look at the talent he left for Harbaugh.
Not sure I am in support of Hoke but he was trying to run a more traditional offense with spread guys. And Rich Rod couldn't win there either but could at WVU and Arizona. So maybe it is a Michigan problem?
After reading this I would love to have him, but he wants a recruiting base. Not sure he is going to view this program as one he can win at.
