I'd take Wilcox as HC, Tedford as OC, Peter Sirmon and Tosh as Co-DCs.
Where is Tosh?
Coaching searches are hard. You either have to find someone really good who's previously gone undiscovered, or you're recycling a guy who's (most of the time) looked bad somewhere else and you think your situation can be the right combo to make him good. Wilcox and Tedford have both looked like they can coach at times, Tedford over a longer timeline. But how about option 3 - none of the above?

Tedford with UW's resources intrigues me.

If he wasn't 60 years old with a history of heart problems that caused him to stop coaching, I'd feel the same.

That's a fair rebuttal. But there are workarounds...
