Coaching Carousal

I can't help but laugh when I read some of these candidates for coaching jobs while others side by on the sidelines.   I'm not sure why Mario Cristobal (my initial choice) has not been interviewed by University of Miami AD, Kirby Hocutt, but it is fairly obviously he's not a serious candidate.  It seems pretty clear a top choice that would be ideal for Da U is University of Houston's head coach, Kevin Sumlin.  He's an offensive whiz who played defense in college and is thirsty to take over a national program and return them to glory.    

At Pittsburgh with Wanny resigning under pressure it's pretty clear they need someone to excite the alumni and take the program to the next level.  I  suggest they take a long look at Auburn offensive coordinator, Gus Malzahn. He's innovative, young and has strong recruiting ties ties that could likely turn Pittsburgh into a national powerhouse.

As for Gator Nation it worked once why not go the same route again and hire Utah HC, Kyle Whittingham.  You know he must be growing frustrated with Utah always on the outside looking in and you know he doesn't fear following Meyer.  I think it's a low risk, high return hire and would let Florida keep rolling as all system can remain in tact.
