Who do you want as SMU's next head coach?

I love Kiffin for the job. He can coach, but also, he will bring attention to the program and might actually put some butts in the seats.

I actually would like to see Lane Kiffin here, too. He would be very entertaining and all future recruits know him.

Were Kiffins involved with the Dallas Cowboys? Forgive me as I don't follow NFL. But is there a Dallas connection here that might be a pull?

Kiffin will likely go to Oregon according to the rumor mill. I doubt he would leave Boca to come to SMU, but if he doesn't get hired by Oregon, who knows... He would certainly bring some publicity to SMU, but geez, what a [deleted].

I abstained from voting, because I believe most of them would do well here. Not a Mack fan, however, and I don't see Sumlin here because he likely isn't interested. Not sure what to think about Kiffin. I suppose that if you subscribe to the adage that "bad publicity is better than none," he's your guy. And it makes sense for him if he doesn't land a P5 job. But do we want that kind of pub?

Overall, I'm optimistic that we'll land a solid, smart coach who recruits manages a game well.

Monte (Lane's dad) worked for the Cowboys for a few seasons.

I see my coach on that list. Anderson is learning but he's still a little green. I think we might have given you a game if our QB hadn't gone down this year.

If you really want a Sunbelt opinion, go get Neal Brown at Troy. Back to back 10 win seasons and he seems to have his head screwed on right. Should be able to assemble a good staff and recruit as well.

Yes, I would be down with that. Someone said his buyout is large for some reason.

[WolfFan]

I'm not sure what his buyout is. Troy may have followed our lead. After losing three successful coaches in three years we put a huge buyout on Harsin. Boise paid us 1.75 million for him.

I can tell you that the Troy fanbase is nervous and I don't blame them. I think he's a winner.

Actually he sent a post card

Would have used the Pony Express but he is unaware of the connection.
