Greg Roman would be about the most uninspiring hires Stanford could make. He has 6-6 ceiling written all over him. This would be a guy taking a big salary increase to take on the the job, who has been out of college football for over 10 years.
Again, Stanford needs to hire someone who coached in college football in 2022, is familiar with the Wild West nature of player acquisition and embraces recruiting.
My top candidates after a week of pondering...
#1 Dave Aranda - Head Coach Baylor
Has a Big 12 Championship after being DC at LSU. Is from Kern County.
#2 Brent Brennan - Head Coach San Jose State
Has a MWC Championship after being OC at Oregon State. Is from Redwood City.
#3 Troy Taylor - Head Coach Sac State
Has Sac State at 12-0 and into the FCS Quarterfinals after multiple Pac coaching positions. Is from Sacramento.
Any one of these guys would be acceptable, with Dave Aranda being a Home Run hire for Stanford.
One more time with feeling: NO WAY TO GREG ROMAN!!!
