Another name to consider...Justin Fuente of the Memphis Tigers. What he's done in three years at formerly-downtrodden Memphis is nothing short of a miracle.

Guided the University of Memphis to its first conference title in more than 40 years as the Tigers posted a 7-1 record in its second season as a member of the American Athletic Conference in 2014

Memphis finished the 2014 season ranked in the top-25 of the final AP and USA Today/Amway Coaches Polls, a first for the program
The Football Writers Association of American, in conjuction with the Allstate Sugar Bowl, named him one of eight finalists for the 2014 Eddie Robinson Award

Morris is from Texas.. I think he prefers being at a small program where expectations aren't insane. SC has always had great expectations
I'm surprised Spurrier hasn't been mentoring somebody on his coaching staff to take over when he leaves.
