Probably too early for this kind of thing, but do you guys think Bill Clark would take a P5 job if offered?

Seen his name mentioned here and there, and just got a feeling about him.

Of course I wanted to hire Willie Fritz when we were looking before (and I think he is too old to do all this job jumping now).

And I'd love to find a guy like Chris Klieman. Clark doesn't have a resume like his, but I get a good vibe off him. And I think he can recruit the South, which I'd wonder about with Klieman.

I think UAB is building a stadium though? And he wants to stay at least to coach in that? Or maybe he wants to stay at UAB?

He would go to USC.

It’s a big step up in competition.

He’s a quality coach.

Probably would be better for the state if he left. UAB should not be playing football. The sooner he leaves, the sooner they start sucking, and the sooner we can shut those g00bers down once and for all.

It would obviously be a step up for him. Not sure if that's what he's after though? He stuck around after they shut the program down and fought to get it back. He's fought to get a new stadium built and they are building that along with new practice facilities. He might be content with what he has going on there. Not sure though.

I'd go after John Grass at JSU before I hired Bill Clark.

Hmmm I see both attended Jacsonville State University (which I thought was in Jacksonville, FL BTW).

So they are already... Gamecocks!

Stars are aligned, make it happen Tanner - Oh wait.

Clark is a very good coach and he knows how to recruit. I'd still go after Leach if I were South Carolina

I think he is overhyped. He basically had a free recruiting class that lead to the 2018 season. I wouldnt want him at AU right now.

I agree. He wants to be a pirate, so it would be perfect. He'd bring excitement back

Mike Leach is 58 years old, doesn't make much less money than we'd pay him, and his machine is already built.

He doesn't seem to mind living in Pullman. One day in the next 10 years he is going to decide he wants to ride off into the Sunset, and he will.

In his shoes I'd stay at Wazzou till I was ready to retire, and see whose season I could ruin, all while having fun.

Frankly I was surprised he was linked to the Tennessee job at all a few years ago.

Insane what his coaching tree is like now.

If he almost took the Tennessee dumpster fire, then I don't see why he wouldn't take the Carolina job

Okay, okay. I don't think I can fix it though.
