Name the one realistic hire that would make you happy and the one guy you for sure don't want
...but I'd be ok at this point with Payne, Collins, or another top assistant at a successful program. I'd rather have Payne of the two due to his recruiting ability.
With what's out there now, I'd rather take a chance that we hit on a good assistant than hire a less than stellar head coach who hasn't had great success or some retread.
Dooley scares me due to his lack of success as a HC.
Bottom line - get it done ASAP.
