Of the three only Dantonio would be a viable option. Mason is a "has been"; and I can't see them hiring anyone without actual head coaching experience which effectively eliminates anyone from the current staff.

All the respect in the world for Mason as a Buckeye but he's never been a winner anywhere he coached. Not exactly Ohio State head coach material. IMHO |

Dan Hawkins--current coach at Colorado. Not sure that he has any ties to Ohio, but that guy can coach and he is reputed to be a class act (though a bit odd, IIRC)
Paul Johnson--what can I say, I grew up in the Big 8 and I love the triple option.
Tim Tebow--He's done everything else... :-)
Anyone know any good FCS coaches?

Who else has Tress sent out for 'seasoning' as a HC elsewhere? The guy at Marshall? Bo Pelini (now of Nebraska as HC)? Any other 'reaches' (as Tress was) in Ohio? Tress may not have an OSU sheepskin on his wall, but he 'served' and 'knows' OSU football lore. Mayhaps there is someone else out there who fits the bill?
I don't think that AD Smith picks a 'non-Ohio' person (like Meatchicken did), regardless of the rep. Urban Meyer? Does one think he can be wooed from the sunshine of Florida? I don't think Dantonio is charasmatic enough to eclipse Tress's recruiting spiel, nor be able to 'walk the walk' as Tress can do. FWIW.

Now that would be interesting. My guess is he could be wooed, but we will choose to not woo him. |

I'll repeat t again; when we were squaring off against UF in the title game there was a rumor that the Browns were going to make JT an offer he could not refuse. A UF poster's comment was "before JT could drive to Cleveland,
Urban would be unpacking his new office in Columbus. I'd take urban in a second.
