I'd go for Tommy Lloyd

Interesting. Given his longstanding PNW ties, Lloyd wouldn't be West Coast averse (which is my concern with the pie-in-the-sky prospect of hiring Jay Wright, who has long been my favorite college coach of the modern era, and whom I think would fit really well on the Farm. Bennett, my second favorite, at least coached for six years at WSU.)

But man, that going from Zona to Stanford would definitely be a apples-to-oranges switch for Lloyd, because U of A has an entirely different recruiting profile, fan base, and (post Big 12 move) conference dynamic. That said, given that U of A is in dire financial straights, I seriously doubt they could match us if we put serious $ behind an offer.
