Every coach that has been talked about has flaws. There was not 1 big time coach out there. Don't get me wrong AG was not my first choice, but I am still happy, I think he fits the culture well. Let's see these perfect candidates that have no flaws at all.

I'm OK with the hire even though I think Crean is twice the coach AG is. I'd have gone after Crean. Whether they approached Crean we won't know until AG moves on. If he does. I seriously hope we get the VCU coach and not the Alabama coach. All the chatter about not being able to win after Saban was hired is laughable. He had a top-5 class. You can't have both sides of the argument. I'm not as convinced as UD2 or OSUFLYER but I feel there was at least one superior candidate.
Edit: I mean concerning established coaches. I originally wanted two of the three top assistants, though an unconventional hire. I've changed my mind.
