Why can’t we hire a proven winner. Is it really money or ineptitude by ad and bot. Plus meddling by haslams. Daddy haslam is a yankee transplant from detroit.
 
Simply my opinion:

1. Jon Gruden
-with a staff loaded w proven college experience
-will need experienced recruiters to help avoid violations
-not sure how he would handle entitled college athletes vs the pros
-his time away from coaching may have refreshed his passion for the game even more

2. David Shaw
-his brand of Ftball fits sec well
-Proven winner in big games
-can work well under high academic standards

3. Steve Sarkisian (surprised not mentioned yet)
-seems to have moved past personal issues from years ago
-His Washington teams played good Ftball in all 3 phases
-now has a season working with a great nfl coach (Dan Quinn)
-would have something to prove
- maybe w Tee as OC (not sure if they crossed paths, but have shared coaching experiences at USC)

Honorary mention:
-Kyle Whittingham (w an established OC)
-Gary Patterson (only if OC Sonny Cumbie comes w him)
-Chip Kelly (w an established DC)

TOP ASSISTANTS TO BE TARGETED:
-Brent Venebles DC
-Stanford’s RB coach (can’t remember his name)
-Tee Martin OC/QBs (limited experience, but wouldn’t be a flop)
-Don Brown DC (michigan dc)
-Major Applewhite OC (prob wouldn’t go back to OC, but worth a try)
-Sonny Cumbie OC (TCU OC)
-Marques Tuiasosopo QBs coach (currently Cal QB/PGCoord coach I believe)
-played for Gruden in Oakland if I recall correctly ;)
-Mike Tice OL Coach

STAFF THAT WE SHOULD CONSIDER RETAINING:
Brady Hoke
Gillespie
Scott (as TEs coach)
Warren

Pete Carroll is a nice choice. I thought about mentioning him. Is he in good standing with the NCAA?

What about Gundy from Oklahoma State as a possible head coach? Gundy played at Ok State, so there may be some difficulty getting him away from his school.

UT needs to hire a coach PROVEN successful on the national level. Since 2008, Gundy and Oklahoma State have been ranked in the end of the year top 25 7 times, including #3 in 2011. He has won one conference championship. Since 2006 the Cowboys have won 7 of their 11 bowl games. If he can be successful in the shadow of OU and Texas, he should be able to do well with UT’s resources.
