I agree that Gruden is a long shot, but you never can tell. I just hope he put a clause in his ESPN contract that allows him to return to coaching without having to pay back ESPN. We couldn't afford that right now. I think Jimbo Fisher has done a decent job at FSU. Dabo Swinney looks pretty good at Clemson. Bob Stoops is probably a longer long shot than Gruden. He is at a top-notch program already, so why would he make a lateral move with the challenges a new coach is going to face here? If we don't get a big name coach to bite, I don't see anything wrong with taking Fulmer back with no buyout clause. Look how well Bill Snyder has done this year at K State at 73 years old (even though last night didn't work out so well, lol). All I know is this is a happy day. I wish Coach Dooley and his family well in their future endeavors. I truly believe he is a good man that was just in over his head at this level.
