Yes..this may be a reach.. Clark Kent of Smallville. he won championships at Smallville High before graduating..and is currently only on contract through this year. Pluses include .. 1. Ability to preform nearly impossible tasks. 2. Works for cheap..he seems to not be influenced by outside money. 3. He lets his team work independent..but always bails them out if need be. 4. Seems to be a bit slow on the romance front so players would not deem him a threat. 5. Led his network in viewer's for several years..granted it was a weak network. Would increase team visibility. 6. Doesn't seem to age. 7. Inspires others to greatness. 8. His assistant coaches are well prepared.Great video and technology use. 9. Could teach Goldy to possibly fly ? A flying Gopher is much more feared. 10. U of M would look good in gold on his uniform..goes with blue. Ok ..Possible negatives. 1. No green pizza. 2. stuff seems to happen around him. 3. draws wrong kind of crowd. 4. Volleyballs seem to explode when he warms up with team. 5. He sees at times to be soft..not competitive enough. 6. He recruits foreign players. 7. Green hail seems to follow him.. 8. Even though he is undefeated..he doesn't put the opposition away. 9. We need to check his birth certificate. 10. You dont want to make him angry. 10 a . locker room and shower need to be lead lined for privacy. and can somebody tell him he needs a new theme song ? Could you live with 15 years of "I get knocked down..but get up again.." At least we moved away from that quickly. Now returning you to your universe.

Lets stop talking about people with no chance and start discussing the people Mike will most likely put his recomendation behind. Besides Carlston I would assume Scott Swanson has his support as well and since Hugh and Christy are apparently out these are the next 2 in line. Ready... set... go!

I must have missed that Hugh and Christy are no longer candidates. Were they offered? Or did they simply pull their names out. I can't imagine anyone else ahead of Carlston for the job unless Mary throws her name in the hat...or (yes Bill) the former Louisville coach. Is there a timetable? This is getting exciting.

Ok, one step removed but.... if Carlston takes MN HC Job, who goes to tOSU?

I've been wrong before, but i don't see Carlston leaving tOSU. Not yet anyways.

How about Beth from Utah? Doesnt she has some connections back to the midwest? This may be a long shot but since someone brought up Chuck Erbe what about former tOSU coach Jim Stone? He seemed to be successful in the B10 for a while.
Other than that what other high mid-major coaches would be good? What about Beerman at Kentucky...he has the head coaching experience. There must be some others that are asst/assoc head coaches with head coaching experience that could/would get the job done.

Stone would be a good hire.

Realistically, how long is this selection process going to take? The recruiting season is upon us.

Funny someone mentioned Beerman when the 'Cat they should be thinking of is Skinner.

They absolutely should be talking to Skinner. Doing a great job at UK, coached in Big Ten, won national titles, big ties to junior volleyball in midwest. Great candidate. Oh yeah he is friends with Tubby.

a simple question, Can Christi even interview right now, Isn't she due anyday now? Maybe that is why they are waiting --- give her some time.
Skinner would also be really good.
What about Shefield? Fran at LSU? Jolene at Duke?
