Jesse Holley and company just looked at possible candidates to be the HC or OC/DC.

He first said that Jim Haurbagh is not coming here as he makes 9 million per year and is home.

He also said why would Jon Gruden leave the booth when he's making that much money etc. I don't think he would because he would have to face his brother twice per year.

The candidates.

Art Briles- Cavanaugh said we would take a PR hit, but no doubt the guy can coach. Said when he visited TC he helped install some of the RPO's with Dak (thought that was interesting).

James Franklin- They all 3 agreed this would be an excellent hire, Young and gifted.

Jimbo Fisher- they were all kind of meh on this candidate.

I think I could actually be excited about Briles and Franklin actually. Briles intrigues me.

He then added hot up and coming Coordinators.

Jim Bob Cooter- OC Detroit
Terrel Austin- DC Detroit
Mike Patricia- DC NE, (Cavanaugh things he is going to be really good because he has coached everything from Oline to Safety. Plus he has a super high IQ).

Anyway just thought I would share. I really like the idea of Briles and Franklin actually. Briles is a winner no matter where he's been. Franklin is young and exciting.

The final candidate....they were all for him. Said he wants out of Zona, Bruce Arians. Would take it tomorrow!
I've said it before and will obviously say it again. Someone on this board mentioned David Shaw on this board and from that moment I kinda fell in love with the idea.

He's not leaving his alma mater. He could have looked at the 49ers job and not have had to move his family and he said no.

Art is old. Along with everybody on here and every other fanbase needing a coach, Harbaugh would be my first choice, but I don’t see him leaving Michigan. Franklin is very intriguing and will definitely be a good choice. Shermer and Patricia will also be good choices. Hell, at this point i’d take a basketball coach over Garrett. Anybody with a pulse would work

Patricia would be a welcome change. A guy who has worked his way up and has an extensive knowledge of the entire game. Not just a limited amount about offense.

It would be hard to get Jim Bob, because there's an opening at Mayberry High.

The red clap machine will be here another year. To many built in excuses at the moment for him and jerry.

Guys, Harbaugh is not going anywhere. I don’t personally know him and I can’t tell you how I know this, but I know. Everyone scratch him off your list.

I don’t know if any HC would work here with Jerry’s meddling. It’s would almost have to be a first time HC who wants the experience and will take the meddling. The problem there is unlike Garrett, such a coach would be gone once he gets enough experience and proves he can win in spite of Jerry Jones undermining him. We’ll be on a coaching roller coaster where every 3 to 5 years we’ll see a new coach.

My fear is we will see Garrett next year. And don’t get me wrong. I’ve been waiting for 7 years for him to be gone.

A young guy to watch. Scott Frost, currently coach of UCF. His first gig as a HC and he has turned the team around. Will be interesting to see what big college he ends up at.

I am definitely not looking for a retread. Could we steal Zimmer away from the Vikes? He has exceeded expectations as a Head Coach. We definitely need an innovator on offense, someone that can get the best out of Dak and our WR's.

Has Dennis Thurman completely fallen off the map? He has a long resume. I know he got fired after 2016 season with Rex Ryan but I wonder if he could be a HC. Ken Norton was the other guy mentioned, his problems in Oakland notwithstanding.
