    There is no such thing as an "automatic upgrade," but at least these guys are all winners, unlike our current coach.

    I dont know for certain if Lebby is a winner. But I do know that you are a loser.

    Intentionally didn't include any P4 head coaches, but sure, I'd be happy to hire him.

    Who's still available from this list?

    Chesney - took the job at UCLA
    Candle - took the job at UConn
    Entz - still available
    Sumrall - took the job at Florida
    Vigen - still available and playing for an FCS title Monday
    Newberry - still available
    Calhoun - still available (two straight losing seasons though)
    Golesh - took the job at Auburn
    Keeler - still available
    Huff - took the job at Memphis
    Rogers - took the job at Iowa State
    Gundy - still available (and a big question mark)
    Polasek - still available
    Helton - still available
    Silverfield - took the job at Arkansas


    Overall, it was a good list, we are too late for some of the names, but still some good ones out there. Also we could consider a retread like Jimbo or Petrino, or the greatest coach in our post-integration history, Dan Mullen.

    I think in the case of Lebby there might be some auto-upgrades out there. Brian Kelley, Ed Orgeron, a chimpanzee, a folding chair…

    I would 100% hire Brian Kelly tomorrow if he would take the job, and I don't even like Brian Kelly.

    Whoever the coach is at Ferris State. He just won another Natty with a different QB than Trinidad. And he can bring his QB with him

    Tony Annese. I don't know anything about him, but sure. I'd take him.

    My #1 is still Brent Vigen, who is probably going to win the FCS National Title on Monday. But again, I'd take anyone from this list, or really anyone who has a record of being a successful head coach at whatever level.

    When people say "there are no coaches out there better than Lebby who would take our job," it's a useful resource for a rebuttal.

    But thanks for bumping it yourself!
