Depends on the situation. People think hiring [B]Shafer[/B] may save the class. This is probably true, especially if Hackett stays. Shafer doesn't want to leave Syracuse. Personally if you bring in a respected coach/recruiter that can save the class and potentially elevate it. I'm not sure if [B]Bob Diaco[/B] is possible, but it is an option that needs to be checked. I think he's more likely than [B]Kirby Smart[/B], who personally I think would be a very bad choice due to a lack of experience in the Northeast. I think [B]Mario Cristobal[/B] is a decent choice at well. Kids like playing for him, knows the NE decently due to Rutgers, knows Florida very well, had success at FIU and was a victim of circumstance (insert Curly face here). A name one of my friends and a board lurker sent me was [B]Teryl Austin[/B]. Worked at SU as an assistant, was a DC under Urban Meyer for a year, worked at Pitt for a few years, good recruiter. He's worth a look as well. Currently with the Ravens.
 
Personally my list would be
1. Shafer
2. Diaco 
3. Austin
4. Cristobal
