If Finebum is correct and they already have their man, and will name the new head coach hire within 2-weeks, it must be someone not in playoff or NY6 contention. Who’s the best HC out there in that situation???
Uh oh!

Maybe it's Harbaugh .... he may be looking for new employment in the near future.
(JK about aTm going for khaki pants.)

Is it time for Urban to come out of retirement for $100 million?

Dabo is not on the lists that I have seen. There are plenty of other names being thrown around including someone currently on their staff. Dabo knows better than to go to that pressure cooker. He thinks that we are bad but, their fans will eat him alive.

Dabo has full control of the program here. It would not be the same at A&M. I agree--he has no interest.

Also, they aren’t paying $75 mil to Jimbo, then the $90 plus or whatever it is Dabo buyout to Clemson…. BEFORE they hand out a new giant contract

Who knows, Texas A&M has a cache of money so they can throw it at a HOF type coaching hire. I am sure they will be calling Dabo and a handful of others....
Either way, they have shown they are not patient to wait 4 years to see results.

They gave Wittle Jimbo almost 6 years and a $77 million buyout. He makes out like a bandit.

Who is to say they don’t take a top OC or DC as well? Could very well be an assistant with a CFP qualifying program.

Elko or Lincoln Riley since he is losing Williams.
Or even his OC, Kliff Kingsbury. I still think he lands at a bigger school this yr as being OC with Riley is probably a challenge.

A&M is not a better job than USC. And Riley is just getting started at USC.

Lot of possibilities not named Dabo.

HC at - Duke, Kansas, Kansas State, Oregon State, Utah, Arizona, Ole Miss, Texas State, Texas - San Antonio. These are just the names I remember off the top of my head.
I've heard all sorts of other names - big names - that are probably just being thrown out for click bait. Including - Dabo, Norvell, Brian Kelly, Lanning, DeBoer, Meyer, Kliff Kingsbury
I've heard other names including Brent Venables, Jim Harbaugh, Dan Campbell (Detroit Lions HC).
I know nothing. I have no sources.
Betting favorite right now is Elko. I suspect it will be one of the 9 head coaches I listed (schools where they are currently HC) in the first line.
Force me to guess right now and I would rank them -
1. Elko
2. Kiffin
3. Kleiman (Kansas St)
Which means it probably won't be any of those three.

Elko? or maybe Urban Meyer would come out of retirement??? Who knows. But I’m betting they already have a deal done with whoever it is.
Maybe Kingsbury?

Kiffin and Sark in the same Conference and same state could be entertaining. Wonder who gets in trouble first? My grandfather and 2 uncles went to A&M but after Manzel turned out to be $#!+ And they hired Dumbo I will only pull for them against Texas and the Coots!

Findbum could mess up a one car funeral...if he is correct...Clemson can't beat Bama and Dabo is done...Finebaum is a Disney monkey with no collar and can't tell fortunes! A&M is a ship of fools...they will throw away millions to win a real natty...destroy one of the greatest college football rivalries cause they could beat UT or Okie...suburban Meyer has won natties and his mouth has never fit a microphone...might be the guy!

I think it will be Kiffen, he's a great offensive coach and he sees what his limitations are at Ole Miss, a 9 or 10 win season at best, he recruits well and uses the portal to field a good team except when playing Bama or UGA.

If they said "within 2 weeks", which sounds like they are waiting for someone accept an offer already extended, I was thinking they would just promote Petrino.

Dabo getting hired away from Clemson is not very likely. If he wants to go, Clemson should thank him for his service and wish him the best at his new destination.

Yes, you heard it here first. TX A&M can pay more than the Detroit Lions. And that "you're fired" bonus of $75-80M is the clincher.
