If Stoops leaves who would you want?

[Soonermagik]

I know, I know, he's not leaving. I have a better chance of winning the lottery and being hit by a car on the same day. :P

But, if it did happen who would you want?

Gary Patterson
Chris Peterson
Chip Kelly
Pete Carroll (If he fails in the nfl)
Bobby Petrino

Any other names?

[BoomerJack]

Barry Switzer. Seriously.... Barry Switzer.

Now, out of the group you listed, I would pick Gary Patterson.

[silverwheels]

Venables.

[Breadburner]

This again....Jesus....

[Soonermagik]

This again....Jesus....

I wasn't thinking that big, but hey.... ;)

[MR2-Sooner86]

Butch Davis? I've heard his name thrown around here several times before.

[madillsoonerfan5353]

Venables.

^^^THIS!

I have bagged on this guy as much as anyone, but I think his hands might be tied a little when changes to the defense are in order. I know Bob make the final call on everything, but since he is a defensive guy he might put in more input on the d? I think BV will shine when giving the chance!

:gary:

[madillsoonerfan5353]

Patterson would be my second choice, because he has done pretty well with the leftovers left by OU and *saxet*!

[badger]

Dennis Franchione. Once coached OU to a 77-0 victory.

[delhalew]

This again....Jesus....

First of all this.

Second of all...none of the tools you listed.

[King Crimson]

Eric Taylor.

[AlboSooner]

lee corso

[Boomer_Sooner_sax]

Anybody who complains about the O or D coordinators since they do way better jobs than those guys.

[cyclonesooner]

Peterson.

[olevetonahill]

http://www.forumspile.com/Thread-Gay-Mentos.jpg

[soonerinabilene]

Bill Cowher.

[OUEngr1990]

Gary Patterson
Chris Peterson
Mike Leach
I would say Mangino, but not sure we can afford to feed him

All of those guys did an excellent job of doing more with less. Just imagine if they were at OU, they could do more with more.

[unbiasedtruth]

so are we talking this year or when it will actually happen, another 7-10 years down the road? As in another 7-10 years I really dont know who are the top coaches then.....

[OklahomaTuba]

The Pirate.

[cdlbdd]

Jim Harbaugh

[usaosooner]

#1 Jim Harbaugh
#2 Gary Patterson
#3 Boby Petrino
#4 Charlie Strong

[cccasooner2]

Who would I want? Ummmm, how about Charlize Theron?

[texaspokieokie]

carmen electra

[jdd12]

that old drunk

[fossil]

This again....Jesus....

:P I think not. Though He is a righteous dude, they played no football during his time, so he knows little about the game. Jesus would look great on the sidelines, but as a head coach.......not so much I think.

[KantoSooner]

Sophie Maceau.

And it's not even close.

[OUChampsBig12]

First of all, not for one second do I think Bob is leaving and going to Florida.

I like - oh well it is a mute point! Bob is not leaving now!

[texaspokieokie]

jimmy johnson

[SoonerBorn85]

Kevin Wilson

[soonerboy_odanorth]

I know, I know, he's not leaving. I have a better chance of winning the lottery and being hit by a car on the same day. :P

Gary Patterson
Chris Peterson
Chip Kelly
Pete Carroll
(If he fails in the nfl)
Bobby Petrino

Any other names?

Do you have some sorta neg wish?

I mean, I think I mighta sorta appreciated the poster who is Soonermajik.... until now.

Really, you're causing a great deal of damage here. Just... stop!

[cdlbdd]

Jesus....

Overrated.

[SoonerMarkVA]

Gary Patterson, right now.

Some day, after the amount of time I hope passes before Stoops steps down, Heupel.

[cattlemaster]

Butch Davis or Jim Harbaugh would be my top 2 :pop:

[Soonermagik]

You don't mean that. :D Okay, maybe a few other candidates:

Les Miles
Mack Brown (If he leaves *)
Bill Callahan

[soonervegas]

B to the V

(Even though he is my favorite coordinator target for complaints I think he will make an outstanding head coach)

[Okie35]

Anybody who complains about the O or D coordinators since they do way better jobs than those guys.

:cool:

[SpankyNek]

I think it is Venables job if he wants it (And he does)

Can't say I would be too disappointed.

[allanace16]

Since I haven't seen it mentioned, and we're just throwing out more or less bull**** unrealistic options anyway,

A successful guy with a lot of charisma, and ties to both the state and the university?

Rex Ryan.

[madillsoonerfan5353]

#1 Jim Harbaugh
#2 Gary Patterson
#3 Boby Petrino
#4 Charlie Strong

This would be my third choice, maybe second.

:gary:

[madillsoonerfan5353]

Les MilesMack Brown (If he leaves *)
Bill Callahan

This would be good:stunned: , he is bat **** crazy, but finds ways to win.

:gary:

[sendbaht]

Don't want to think about it.:)

[CarolinaSoonerFan]

I know, I know, he's not leaving. I have a better chance of winning the lottery and being hit by a car on the same day. :P

Gary Patterson

NEVER PETE CARROLL.....I HATE HIM

[soonercastor]

http://crazytalking.com/index_files/image001.gif

[pappy]

He's not leaving but I'll play along...

#1 Pete Carroll (if he leaves the seahawks)
#2 Urban Meyer (that guy isn't gonna stay retired he'll be back within 2 years)
#3 Chris Peterson
#4 Gary Patterson
#5 Jim Harbaugh
#6 Les Miles (only happens if he gets fired at lsu)
#7 Charlie Strong
#8 Mike Leach

[BigJerm7]

Alan Trimble.

[Harry Beanbag]

This thread is mega lame, and it's not even the offseason yet. But I would say Jim Harbaugh hands down.

[Soonermagik]

HATERZ GONNA HATE. :gary: :P

[Harry Beanbag]

:)

[PLaw]

In no particular order:

Brother Mike

Muschamp / a dagger to *

Meyer / Theory: Bob retires within 3-5 years after winning back to back MNC's. Urban will be restless and looking for a new job. It might just happen.

Saban / Doubt we could get him out of Bama, but wishfull thinking

Harbough / Not sure about his texas recruiting ties

[RedstickSooner]

1) The King
2) Bill Cowher
3) Saban
4) Leach
5) Norm Chow
6) Oscar Meier -- though I dunno if I want a coach who quits every 11 months.

Anyone who suggests they want Miles makes me want to gouge out my own eyes -- are you not paying attention? All he has done at LSU is manage to not upset the recruiting apple cart set up by Saban. The fans hate him because he is one-lucky-horseshoe-up-the-*** away from being, like, a .600 coach. Do you really want a coach whose major accomplishment the past few years has been that every time something happens which involves pure luck, he's got a 9 in 10 chance of coming out on the winning side?

He routinely butchers clock management and other aspects of the game the coach is directly responsible for -- yet somehow pulls out the win by, say, direct snapping to a cheerleader and having her throw the ball backward over her shoulder to the mascot, who was somehow declared as an eligible receiver before the play, for a touchdown. On fourth and 37, from his own 2 yard line.

The moment his luck runs out, his *** is grass down here. Once his luck runs out, how stupid would we have to be to hire him?

Then be prepared to pay $7mil+.....;)

It was just reported in the Tuscaloosa News today that Nick became college football's highest paid coach this year--His total compensation for '10, including incentives, was $6,087,000.00. Even in the NFL, that would be good enough for no less than 4th highest paid in the whole league.

http://www.tidesports.com/article/20101209/NEWS/101209646/1011?p=1&tc=pg

Pretty sure that Norm Chow would never be a serious candidate--his stock has really gone down, if you ask me, and I also heard he doesn't have much of a passion for recruiting.

[3DSooner]

1. Shmelly
2. John Blake
3. The Gibber!
4. Joe Pa
5. Sara Palin

[SoonerRoy]

Would prefer 1 Saban (Bama) 2 Harbaugh (Stanford) but both are extremely unlikely. Of those that are 1 Mike Stoops (Zona) 2 Briles (Houston) 3 BV (current OU assistant). I think BV could be a fine HC but I prefer someone who has run an entire football program for a couple of years.

Wow, that's crazy; I feel like that was my fault. :eek: :D

See, it's not as crazy as you think. ;)

[cleller]

This again....Jesus....

I actually think Jesus would be great on the sidelines. Can you imagine the sense of calm he could bring during a timeout before a 4th and short?

Think of how could could handle officials during the game....

Reporters during the press conference; answering their questions with parables...

Awesome!
