Rank these coaches in order of "Do Want"

Bill Clark, UAB
Scott Frost, UCF
Brian Brohm, Purdue

Those 3 are guys I'd take in a heartbeat. Next tier is a couple guys I think have good potential and would be okay taking now, but would have liked to have seen more of

PJ Fleck, Minnesota
Dino Babers, Syracuse
Neal Brown, Troy

If we could poach another SEC coach I would be happy with

Mark Stoops, Kentucky


All these guys are realistic options who Auburn could land IMO (only Stoops I could see being a problem, possibly not wanting to disrespect UK by going to another SEC school).

Other than Babers this is a relatively young group. Stoops is the only one that doesn't ooze charisma, but even he recruits exceptionally for UK.
Clark, Brohm, Frost, Brown and, Fleck all in particular do all the right things on offense that frustrates us so much with Gus.


Feel free to add to the list, but before somebody says it Chip Kelly wouldn't come to AU, and personally I wouldn't want him anyway. He would be a horrible fit culturally for this program, wouldn't last long here, and IMO would damage the program before he left to make any wins he got not worth it. Out of all the guys I listed, Babers might be the only one I would take a chance on Kelly over.
