All things being equal, I'd like a guy with Bama ties, too. Who wouldn't? But all things aren't equal and there's not a name on the rumored list that has credentials as a head coach and Bama ties too. And with me, resume' wins over relations 10 times out of 10.

Whitting and Godwin are my realistic favorites as far as younger candidates with head coaching experience goes. Though assistants aren't a deathkill by any means. Several promenent head coaches were long time assistants until their current job, including Corbin and McDonnell.

This. All things AREN'T equal. And a connection to the University should be the absolute LAST criteria ever in a coaching search.

Mike Dubose and Mitch Gaspard should be enough of a reminder to anyone that forcing a UA hire over more qualified candidates is absolutely stupid.

ETA - I like the idea of hiring Bohannon.
