It must be SF. We can dream/explore all these other options...and that's fine...but whoever it ends up being had better pass the "common sense" test.
One of the great things about marriage (yes, just one) is that your spouse helps to complete you, and balance things out. My wife has been a Husker fan for decades. We don't miss a game...until this year. I don't miss a game, but she could take it or leave it.
When we announce the new HC, if it doesn't make sense to her immediately, it is 99% doomed. When we hired Cally, I tried to convince her that it "just might work". Same for Bo and same for Mike. If I have to do more convincing this time, I'm convinced it's the wrong hire. She will clearly understand and welcome SF as our new leader...no convincing needed because it's common sense. You don't have to do a ton of background research and piecing together of logic for it to make sense.
