Being in NW Ark, I was able to follow the Malzahn situation pretty first hand, and he got the shaft from the Nutt clan. The fan base here actually would have preferred Malzahn over Petrino...I don't think he's ready for the HC position, mainly because of the lack of experiance at this level and his recruiting contacts and connections aren't good yet, but he'd make a heck of a OC if Graham were to come this way.

He will NEVER leave that job. He built it, literally, from nothing. If there is any coach in D1 that I think absolutely will not leave, it's him. He has more invested in that program than most coaches do.
Im just wondering because with Gill out of the picture as it seems and tuberville being paid next year without having to coach im interested to see who we are interviewing
Cubit is the best current DI head coach we realistically have a chance at.
At least he's beat the Hawks.

I really have a gut feeling that we get patterson from TCU.. dont know why i think that but hey, something tells me......
take it for what its worth:biggrin:

1) Gary Patterson
2) Mike Stoops
3) Frank Solich
4) Steve Loney
5) Tommy Tubervill
All except Loney would be very big name hires. I like Loney because he would bring consistency at the coaching position. It is likely he would not leave for another job and would stay at ISU as long as he could. The other guys would be much more big name guys and that might help keep the players around right now.

It would be great. For some reason, I have a feeling that JP is talking to a guy in Houston. Again, pure gut feeling, but I could see him calling Bailiff. 9-3 at Rice is NOTHING to sneeze at. And he wasn't just going off Graham. He was 5-7 his first year, and then 9-3. That said, to those who say Graham just went off Kragthorpe at Tulsa, he did a lot at Rice...
nolan cromwell who was an outstanding big eight quarterback at kansas. he is with one of the NFL teams as a head offensive coordinator. does anyone know where he is currently coaching.
another hot shot name would be john elway who was qb for the denver broncos-might make a pretty heady collegiate coach.

The last time he was pacing the sidelines in Tulsa, we were looking for a new coach. Kragthorpe is in Louisville, and absolutely FLOUNDERING there. They went from being a darkhorse national title contender to not being in a bowl in two seasons.
Since Turner Gill is staying at Buffalo think you should take a good look at FrankSolich. A lot of us Nebraska fans think it was a big mistake to have gotten rid of Frank. Yes we all thought his recruiting had fallen off but can tell you this its when we got to Callahan's recruits is when our defense fell apart.
Hw many games did Frank win this year at Ohio? How many did Farley? That is your answer.
Why does anyone want Mike Stoops? He has bombed at Arizona and is worse with the media and fans than Chizik...
