They did this with the radio show down in Chattanooga, and I thought it would be interesting to do with the fans here. I will list some of the names that have been thrown out there as serious possibilities, and you say yes or no on whether you would feel like they were a good hire.

1. Jon Gruden
2. Sean Payton
3. Chip Kelly
4. Jim Mora Jr.
5. Todd Graham
6. Jimbo Fisher
7. Mike Gundy
8. James Franklin
9. Gary Patterson
10. Butch Jones
11. Bob Stoops
12. Jim Tressel (would face NCAA sanctions for a couple of years)
13. Bobby Petrino
14. Kirby Smart
15. Al Golden
16. Charlie Strong
17. Dan Mullen
18. Sonny Dykes
19. Tommy Tuberville
20. Steve Sarkisian
21. David Shaw
22. Gus Malzahn
23. Art Briles
24. Brian Billick
25. Mark Dantonio

1. Absolutely yes
2. Cannot see him staying, but definitely yes
3. Yes, but I'd want some ethical clauses
4. Would be a great coach, but has been abrasive to some people
5. No- not good enough
6. No- Florida State isn't "back"
7. No- can't win the big ones
8. No- would take too long to rebuild, plus i don't like him
9. No- would probably be okay eventually though
10. No- hasn't done enough to prove himself to me
11. Yes
12. Yes, but not a first option
13. On the fence- good coach, would require ethics clause
14. Absolutely no
15. No
16. No, but could eventually warm up to him
17. No
18. No
19. No
20. No
21. No, but could warm up to him
22. On the fence- not enough experience as HC
23. On the fence- not enough results, but does well with talent
24. Certainly yes, but would be a bigger stretch than Gruden
25. No
