Message: [QUOTE="CuseOnly, post: 490926, member: 2804"] I can do this from my couch, As did the Good Doctor I am sure. Mark Whipple - All HC experience was at FCS level or Ivy league. All other coaching experience was at the position coach level except 1 year as OC at Miami where he was fired. Next stop Cleveland Browns as a...wait for it, Position Coach. No Thanks. Ralph Friedgen - 2001-2003 he succeeded with someone else's talent, then the 4th year when his guys see the field the go in the toilet. After his 1st 3 years, his record is 44-42. Great hire, again No Thanks. Mark Mangino - Record at Kansas 50-48, along with all the investigations he needs a record like Saban's to sell me or...No Thanks. Mike Malarkey - LOL, really. Can't bellieve you would even suggest it. No College coaching experience whatsoever. No recruiting ties. Pro head coaching record 16-32, No thanks. George O'Leary - Coached my High School. Lied on his resume. College total HC record 112 -88 but there is no way in hell that TGD hires this guy. Mike Martz - Not Happening. Currently works as a FOX sports NFL analyst and makes more than Marrone did as HC at Syracuse. As of 18 hours ago is interviewing for the HC gig for the Oakland Raiders. He is alos an arrogant jerk that would think the HC job at SU is beneath him. Skip Holtz (laugh if you want, still has more credentials and connections than Shafer)- He wan't interested in the job the first time. After what happened at USF, why would you even put him on a list to make a point?? Should I shred the remaining 3 or do you get my point? Bobby Wilder Josh McDaniels Bill Blankenship Also - None of these candidates would make the splash or impact with the boosters and fans which if you were going outside of the current staff would have to be made. If I was TGD, I wouldn't hitch my wagon to any of these guys. I might consider Bob Diaco(ND) or mark Helfrich (Oregon) but neither of them are going anywhere for a while. These names might have enough cache to make the boosters, administration, and fans happy. Talking out of both sides of my mouth?? There is not one person in college football that doesn't know that Scott Shafer at Michigan for the one year was the ONE mistake of his career. There is also not one person anywhere that doesn't know he got shafted by Rich Rod and was used as a scapegoat. Even Michigan fans know he got screwed. [/QUOTE]
