Head Coaching carrousel mania for 2020 begins

Clark Lea would probably be a good choice as head coach for Vandy. There is a good history of ex Notre Dame defensive coordinators becoming successful head coaches.

Where? You have any specifics to back that up? Some of us may beg to differ.
 
Good summary by Feldman in the Athletic of coaching options. Interesting to read that Herman's seat in Texas is warm and that Urban Meyer may be a good fit. Texas has amazing resources and recruiting....but short on patience.

Meyer has said ND is his dream job, but Kelly isn't going anywhere. I wonder if he would consider Michigan if Harbaugh leaves? Or USC?

It's a joke. Since 1986 there have been 5 ND DCs that went on to become head coaches: Barry Alvarez, Gary Darnell, Bob Davie, Rick Minter, and Bob Diaco. Only Alvarez can be called a successful head coach.

Agree. But Texas is a sleeping giant in basically every sport.

I think between Michigan, Texas or USC, Michigan is least likely.

He is a bit unpredictable though.

Um, USC is undefeated, ranked and having a great recruiting year. Other than that, I could see a vacancy opening up there.

Um...Clay Helton nearly lost his job last year. He is 3-0 this year but almost lost his two first games where they were favored. I am not saying it's a lock that he is gone this year...but it's possible. Especially if Meyer wants the job.

According to my (very good) source in Austin, despite attempts to deflect his intentions, Urban Meyer will be the next football coach at the University of Texas. “It’s all in the works as we speak.”
Who knows if it’s real but my guy is very connected to the UT Athletic department and has been accurate on past moves. And it makes sense. His “health issues“ have now subsided, allowing Tom Herman the country bumpkin (and Meyers former OC at OSU) to be supplanted by Urban Meyer the corporate assassin. Oh, and there’s also a big check to be written.
 
Who are rumored Michigan possibilities? Doesn’t seem like anyone can get them back to elite. Rich Rod flopped, and Harbaugh hasn’t fared much better.

Texas is the place to be - have to think Urban has his sites set on that gig. Endless talent in the area.

endless talent. Endless resources. Rabid fan base.

Would Fickell consider Michigan? I know he is an Ohio State guy...and he turned down Michigan State.

Bring Herman here for OC.

The chances of a Columbus born and bred Osu guy doing anything other than play Michigan is remote. He's making between 3 and 4mm at Cincy. He would not alienate himself in Cbus. Just doesn't need it. He can pick and choose. He's loaded up so much talent where he's at, he's going to win for a while.

so being a “Michigan man” is no longer a requirement. We can probably thank Harbaugh for that.
