I think going with the “let’s hire a good coach with a knack for hiring staff and playing complimentary football” is the better call. Technically that’s what Gary Patterson, who is perhaps available, was trying to do at TCU.
Problem is he wasn’t very good at it, not as good as Mike Leach has been nor Mike Gundy. @ me if you want, it’s just the truth.
