I voted for Jay Gruden, although he's not really my first choice. I'd much rather have a defensive minded HC like Mike Zimmer or Dan Quinn (http://mmqb.si.com/2013/12/06/dann-quinn-defensive-coordinator-seattle-seahawks-san-francisco-49ers-nfc-west-greg-bedard-weekend-notes-week-14/). Lovie is my #1 choice but he won't be an option I'm sure.

I don't like any of the choices. I want Lovie Smith for HC and philbin for OC. Second choice G Williams HC philbin OC.
This team could seriously fly with the right leadership.

Philbin is going nowhere and what makes Williams so great? Bounty cash.

I think Sumlin is still the biggest home run hire on the list, so that's who I continue to vote for, but I honestly think Jay Gruden is the only guy on this list who takes the job if its offered to him. If we don't want him, I think we have to go with someone off the list.
Brian Kelly?

If i had to choose from this list I guess i would pick Jay Gruden. What about Pete Carmichael from the Saints?
Kind of telling that Kromer, and not PC, was named interim HC when Payton was suspended last year.

Brian Kelly?I suspect Kelly is a year away from jumping to the NFL. I think/hear Chuck Martin is positioning himself to be the NOtre Dame hire when Kelly leaves for the NFL.
Anyway, you know I'm hopelessly biased pro-Kelly as a Notre Dame fan and Grand Valley grad, and he's a perfect mess-cleaner which we need. But I don't wish this situation on him and think he'll pick his spot more wisely.

I would rather get a coordinator from an NFL team over a college HC. Someone like Darrell Brevell, Vic Fangio, Greg Roman, or Jay Gruden.

I think Jay Gruden is talented enough as a coach to win as an HC in the NFL, but he's not a home run hire by any means. For a coach like him building a strong staff will be important. There are guys in the college ranks with big personalities that will come in and win right away at the pro level like Chip Kelly is. I just don't think those guys want this job.
