An article in USA Today naming prospects ended with the following:
"Lane Kiffin: They wouldn’t. Would they?"
That was my good laugh for the day!

Not a chance in the world Gruden takes it. He's living the life right now. I wouldn't count out Lane Kiffin. I still think they should try for the Zooker. Maybe Spurrier will give them a couple years...lol
Some interesting prospects here.

Cristobal is a good call. Mark Stoops has done some really good things at Kentucky and would surely much rather be in the ACC Coastal. The guy from Memphis, Justin Fuentes would also be a great hire I think. There are options out there should they decide to not hire the most obvious choice, Ron Zook.
Chris Low of ESPN thinks Charlie Strong would be a good fit. He still recruits well in Florida and he was Defensive Coordinator at Florida under Ron Zook!
Leaving Texas would be a great move for him. That's another program in serious trouble.

Always remember this: Money ain't everything. Most people got more money than they actually need. For those with extra, please mail it in care of:

CS would be welcomed in Miami where he's an outcast in Austin. I think it would be a great hire but I'm not sure he'd leave for less money and having not done the job well at Texas.
Find the boat Jimmy Frickin' Johnson is on trolling down in the Keys and snatch him back. Or even Butch Davis, OK maybe Stoops - but SP stop it with the guy who looked like the Village Idiot with the Gators, maybe he could recruit a little, but what else? Boy people have short memories; he was wasn't as good an end of game time manager as most high school coaches; worst in upper div history.
Lmao. Like I said SK, I'm inserting the Zooker into every thread somehow. I do not believe the man should ever coach again at any level.
So what you sayin is you been BS'ing us??? How could any man have the nerve to come on here and try to BS people??? Nu'Trelle - for one - can't believe this. He may haff to contack the Moderator(s). He might even haff to bring in the heavyweights from Calif. Nu'Trelle have connections there. Nomsayin?
Here's the truth, my man RZ feels like he's fallen off the radar a bit so he's giving me a quarter every time I mention his name in a thread so he can hopefully become relevant again. The man knows how much clout trolls this board and feels this is his way back to the big time.
Scratch that. Charlie Strong said he doesn't want the job.
Another name mentioned was Ed Reed. He really has no coaching experience. Would they even consider him just because he's an alumni?

Doesn't matter which Campbell they hires long as the guy have the ability to go into New Jersey and cherry-pick the world's finest HS players.
If they can rename the U to Don Bosco South Beach and just get all those kids to go straight from DBNJ to DBSB it would solve all problems. Is Gerry Faust still alive? Maybe he could coach the team.
Au contrare, mon ami. If you do that, you risk alienating players from Bergen Catholic, St. Joe, Our Lady of the Frustrated Virgin and all the other high-octane New Jersey preparatory academies. UM will want to sew up ALL the NJ blue-chippers. Nomsayin?
Wave just e-mailed his guess: "Can't Buy a Thrill"
Nu'Trelle's response: "Can't Buy a Thrill" ain't no song you damn fool. It were the name of an album (1972)
which you borrowed from Nu'Trelle on 8-track an never brought back
Correck answer is: "King of the World"

For those who is "old school" (and, yes, some you young mens too), here's the Steely Dan hit to which shortpasser referred. The guitar lead-in - widely acknowledged as one of the best ever recorded - was performed by Larry Carlton (former lead guitarist of the Crusaders) who at 28 was at the very top of his game:
Agents of the law
Luckless pedestrian
I know you're out there
With rage in your eyes and your megaphones
Saying all is forgiven
Mad dog surrender
How can I answer
A man of my mind can do anything
[Chorus]
I'm a bookkeeper's son
I don't want to shoot no one
Well I crossed my old man back in Oregon
Don't take me alive
Got a case of dynamite
I could hold out here all night
Yes I crossed my old man back in Oregon
Don't take me alive
Can you hear the evil crowd
The lies and the laughter
I hear my inside
The mechanized hum of another world
Where no sun is shining
No red light flashing
Here in this darkness
I know what I've done
I know all at once who I am
(chorus)

One of the best Steely Dan albums - But Kid Charlemagne was where Carlton shreds it; voted one of the TOP Ten lead guitar riffs of all time...Royal Scam is loaded with one song after the other - summer before Grad school, ran Dodge City wild. Damn all you all youngsters, sorry your music sucks.
