Who would you rather have?

Napier or Heupel

Lincoln Riley

Hugh Freeze 2 years ago, no thanks now.

At this point, I'd take Scott Frost. Nebraska has been pretty shitty since Osborne retired. Starting to think it's not coaching. They are the new Georgia Tech. Excellent history, but nothing worth noting in several decades.

From the names I see you wanting, you’ve got to give me a full list

Yep

Names I want, or names we can get?

Aranda is my first choice.

Names we can get:

Frost: Think back to 2 years ago. Would you have straight up traded Gus for Frost? Knows the recruiting area. Proven winner before he got to Nebraska, the place that will forever live in the shadow of Tom Osborne.

Muschamp: Redemption coach without baggage. USC is a place where coaches go to die. FLA hasn't been shite since Tebow. That's exactly why Urban abruptly left. Damn good recruiter, and damn good at coaching defense.

Kiffin: Offensive mind, but way too analytical. He pratically gave us the game with his 4th down calls. Also, shady as HELL! No way our boosters will bring their daughters or wives around Mr. Freshwater. Learned their lesson with Bowden.

Hugh Freeze: This dude can coach, BUT he appears to have severe ethical and mental stability issues. Wears his religion on his sleeve, but hires prostitutes for recruits. Maybe he has seen the light, and a second chance is in order in the big leagues. Much better bet than the next guy.

We could get Deion Sanders easily. His salary is $300K currently. He'd bust thru doors to take a meeting with Auburn for a job. That being said, no D-1 school, outside of that shitshow that is Vandy, would ever consider that hire, with his experience. A certain career death sentence if/when it all blows up. Even the biggest "Coach Prime" cheerleaders will question the hire eventually, based on his complete lack of experience, AT ANY LEVEL OF COACHING.


Lastly, I present a name very familiar: Bill O'Brien. Impressive resume. Will be a HC somewhere, very soon. So respected, that he was sought after as an NFL HC. Unlike big time college coaches, he actually won a few NFL playoff games and coached there for more than a couple of years. Turned a true sophomore into a Heisman winner. Coached Tom Brady. Good enough that Saban thought enough to snatch him up as soon as he was available. Forget the spoiled fans of the school he currently coaches at, and remember this fact. His offense got to the national championship last year, with a true sophomore, Heisman winner, and they are currently undefeated AND just curb stomped Arky AWAY, with the backup QB.

Sanders and it's not even close. People are forgetting that FSU nearly pulled the trigger on him. He could care less about the money and wouldn't be trying to rob us like Gus did. If people take the time to look at what he has done at Jackson St its actually impressive to turn that place around from a losing program to a winning one with a limited amount of resources.

I'm really starting to think, based on the fanbase of this board, some serious shite is being smoked.

Gus Malzahn took a team that went 3-9 the year before, to the fricking national championship game! We fired his arse less than two years ago. And here we have people promoting Deion Sanders because he won a few games at D-2, SWAC, Jackson State! He's coached a massive 17 games at the college level! You are high as a kite, if you think Florida State, or any other D-1 school has ever considered hiring him as a HC.

Damn! Dude wears stupid AFLAC gold chain and dances with a duck, on a nation-wide TV commercial, and some people thing he's beyond reproach when it comes to money?

You just don't get it. Sanders would work his butt off to make sure he is successful at coaching. He already has his several NFL coaches on his staff volunteering their time to help his team. You don't see coaches lining up for Gus or Harsin like that.

Gus landed into the perfect spot with the talent already there, he just needed to find a qb. Now compare the results to when Gus had to recruit the players on his own. He turned into 8-5 Gus.
