Note, Harbaugh hired Mason as DB coach, but Shaw made him the co-DC (with Tarver) and Assistant HC, and made him the sole HC when Tarver left.  That doesn't exactly fit with avoiding vocal, independent assistants who might be in a position to challenge.  By the way, Mason hired Tarver to be DC and Vandy, so he may be available as well.

Tarver is the LB coach for the Cleveland Browns, who are on a roll right now. But he's from the area. Would be a hell of a coup.
