I can tell you ... the first two we will reach out to are Fuentes at Memphis and DJ Durkin at Michigan.

While Hoke may be named Interim, I suspect it could be Bubba to give him a chance to pull it out this season. Things are crazy over there right now.

Fuentes is a good option. I wonder who is more attractive to the AD between him and Smart.

Fuentes at Memphis

Made it onto a list of suggestions for Southern Cal as well:

10. Justin Fuente

If USC was going to look at anyone without a long track record as a head coach, this would be the guy. His work at Memphis has been nothing short of miraculous, taking a program that was completely in the dumps and leading it to a 10-3 season in 2014 and a 5-0 start this year. He isn’t a flashy guy, but the former TCU offensive coordinator is going to outcoach most people he faces. His offensive schemes are fun, and his track record of developing quarterbacks (Andy Dalton and Paxton Lynch) is impressive.

Though Memphis-to-USC is a monumental jump — maybe too big — it wouldn't be terribly different than Jim McElwain going from Colorado State to Florida. That has worked out pretty well.
