[QUOTE="lv20gt, post: 907466, member: 2299"] IMO O'Brien, Sanders, and Chadwell are all on a similar level in terms of desirability but different reasons. No, they aren't at the level of USC landing Riley, or LSU landing Kelly but few are. The coach level is only part of the equation, while the other is what direction the program wants to go in. Leipold at Kansas would be a great get for Nebraska but I'm not sure that he'd be a better get than us getting Chadwell or O'Brien. Here are last year's P5 hires for Comparison (not including the two mentioned above) Miami - Cristobal. Former Oregon HC, and at FIU before that with a stop at Saban's rehab inbetween ND - Marcus Feldman - Promoted from within when Kelly left for LSU. No prior HC experience. Oregon - Dan Lanning. UGA's DC last year and no HC experience. Florida - Billy Napier. Very similar profile as Chadwell. Oklahoma - Venables. Clemson Assistant with no HC experience UVA - Tony Elliot - Clemson Assistant with no HC experience. VT - Brent Pry - PSU assistant with no HC experience. Duke- Mike Elko. Texas A&M DC with no HC experience. TCU - Sonny Dukes - Extensive HC experience at Lousianna Tech, Cal, and most recently SMU. TT - Joey McGuier - Baylor assistant with no HC experience. Washington - Kalen Deboor. Some HC experience with two years at Fresno State and great success at NAIA Sioux Falls in the late 00s. Washington State - Jake Dickert - no experience HC, promoted from within after being the interim the previous year when the former HC was fired for reasons related to vaccine requirements. To me, all those *insert name* with no HC experience are very similar to O'Brien's situation except he has ties here, and a former somewhat successful stint as HC at PSU (during their hit hard by sanctions period). Sure, Venables is different because of the sheer volume of his DC experience at Oklahoma and Clemson, but for the rest, I would take O'Brien's resume over what they were. Of the others, Napier, Deboor, Dukes, I all see as similar to Chadwell. in terms of having prior success. The outliers are Cristobal, who Miami opened up the wallet for and we won't be getting something similar unless a donor decides to give Urban Meyer a blank check to come here, and the two promotions from within, which should we aren't going to have a similar candidate for because both were seen as continuing what their predecessor did which needless to say we aren't wanting. IMO both O'Brien and Chadwell would be seen as phenomenal hires by those outside the program, and Deion is just a unique case that would have some people hyped and some people just expecting him to fall flat on his face.
