Would you want Saban or Sumlin

Saban for the simple reason that he would want control. Anybody but Jerry as GM.
 
Saban no, he tried and failed the NFL and went running back to college.
I don't know if Sumlin can handle the NFL and if his system would work.

Also you have to bring in a offensive coach because I don't see Jerry firing Kiffin after one year.

Brian Kelly is the only college coach I would want.

Lovie Smith would be a interesting coach because he would keep Marinelli and Kiffin and would need to bring in a OC.

I would also like to have Greg Roman or Jay Gruden both also offensive guys that would keep the defensive staff.
also Roman would most likely bring Geep Chryst as OC.
 
He and Jimmy were friends and Jimmy was a VERY successful college coach. His hire was a bit of a no-brainer.

I know and that is exactly the point
Jerry hired jimmy because he was his buddy not because he was the best coach for the cowboys
Jerry hired him because he was comfortable with jimmy, the same reason he has hired several other coaches since then , campo, Garrett etc (pretty much everyone except parcells)

It just so happened that jimmy happened to be a great coach

As I said, Jerry got lucky
