Sumlin has never had a good defense at Houston or A&M. It is epically bad this year

I agree that Strong is unlikely. Just saying that for those going down the Sumlin path, Strong would be more likely. The PAC > ACC and Louisville is going to be the 4th strongest program in the ACC? Very possible that the Florida job could open this year as they are staring down a possible 6-6 season - I do wonder how that will go over with Muschamp (not advocating him).
DeRuyter to me is the ultimate wild card. He could definitely be a home run hire - there's a strong track record there.
I would put Mora higher than him on the list because of the proven experience as a HC and ties to the program.
Bohl doesn't seem that realistic to me - it also wouldn't surprise me if the Nebraska job opened and they got him. Seems like he's content being in the Midwest - have to think that he's had opportunities to leave prior to now.
I'm not advocating a first year HC at all. In fact, given the attractiveness of the job and the fact that the reason for a coaching change is to hire someone that you feel can take this program to an elite level, it's really hard to expect that to happen with a first year HC. The two names that I mentioned are the names that I would think you'd look hard at IF you had to go down that path for whatever reason.

Although it is a new regime, Bohl got forced out of Nebraska after a 7-7 season, and was replaced by Bo Pelini as DC in 2003. Maybe he holds some ill feelings over being fired from there once before?
I agree about Mora before DeRuyter, mainly because Mora is a proven great recruiter who emphasizes the lines. I am not as high as many here about Mora's on field coaching.

That's my biggest concern regarding Mora as well ... I tend to think he gets way too emotional in games and that hurts him.
The key is to find a coach that is excitable/personable enough to be a great recruiter but who is also cold blooded enough in the attention to details on game day to make sure that he's always one step ahead of the opposition.
Problem is that those types of coaches aren't plentiful.

History[edit]
Special review day at Ontario Agricultural College, Guelph, Ontario ca. 1939-46
MacDonald Institute, Ontario Agricultural College, Guelph, Ontario
Ontario farmers increasingly demanded more information on the best farming techniques. Their demands led to farm magazine and agricultural fairs. In 1868 the assembly created an agricultural museum, which morphed into the Ontario Agricultural College in Guelph in 1874.[1] Its first building was Moreton Lodge, located where Johnston Hall now stands, which included classrooms, residences, a library, and a dining room. (Several buildings constructed during this time period are still a part of campus life today, including President's Residence, Raithby House, and Day Hall.)
The War Memorial Hall (more generally known as Memorial Hall) is a landmark building built in June 1924 as a lecture hall or theatre at the Ontario Agricultural College to honour students who had enlisted and died in the First World War, and in the Second World War. Two bronze tablets in the Memorial Chapel remembers alumni who died in the First World War and in the Second World War.[2]
Subsequently, the Ontario Agricultural College (OAC) became one of three founding colleges of the University of Guelph in 1964. (The other two were the Ontario Veterinary College and the Macdonald Institute.)
The OAC opened on May 1, 1874 with an enrollment of 28 students. The OAC administration was housed in Moreton Lodge until 1931, when the building was torn down to make way for Johnston Hall. The OAC's offices have resided in Johnston Hall ever since. The Canadian-American economist John Kenneth Galbraith earned a bachelor's degree in animal husbandry from the College.
In August 2008 Dr. Robert Gordon was appointed Dean of the Ontario Agricultural College.
Campus[edit]
In 1997, three other agricultural colleges affiliated with the Ontario Agricultural College and the University of Guelph [1]: College d'Alfred, a francophone college in the eastern part of the province at Alfred, Ontario; Kemptville College, founded in 1917 and located at Kemptville, Ontario about 30 minutes south of Ottawa, and Ridgetown College at Ridgetown, Ontario founded in 1922 and located in southwestern Ontario near Chatham. In May 2007, they were renamed Campus d'Alfred, Kemptville Campus and Ridgetown Campus in order to recognize their full integration into the university.[2]
Programs[edit]
The OAC offers a wide range of degree and diploma programs based on four main pillars: food, agriculture, environment, and rural communities.[3] The following degrees and diplomas are available under the OAC:

Point being not interested in 4 or 6. Riley gets less with less or something. Ask iDawg

Do I think we have a better program than Oregon State?
Probably a wash at this point.
We have more inherent advantages of a program (bigger alumni base, city, university, facilities, recruiting base).
They have an inherent advantage at head coach.
A head coaching advantage can mitigate a lot of other advantages.

Anyone who wants Craig fucking Bohl to be the next coach at UW needs to bathe in some gas and then turn a blowtorch on themselves.
11 years at NDSU? With a 3-8 record in year 7? Good god.
That would be the most miserable and deflating hire.

with all the inherent advantages of UW, its 2 loss Riley, not 4 loss Riley
The school looks like it jumped up in conference competetion from Division 2 - from looking at his entry on Wikipedia, it's hard to tell how much of an impact that had on his record.
For the last 3.5 years though, his record is 44-7 with 2 National Championships. His team is currently 7-0.
Go look at Jim Tressell's record at Youngstown State and get back to me. He went 3-8 in year 11.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Tressel
Bohl won conference titles in his 4th and 5th years at NDSU. He then went through some growing pains when they switched conferences, and he now is coaching a dynasty going for their third championship in a row. Results are results. The guy can coach. I like other candidates as well, but maybe you should save the gas and blowtorch for yourself.
