After losing Chizik, who has made himself out as scum of the earth for lying to everyone involved, Gill would be a complete 180. I don't know if any of you saw his interview after the MAC championship, but I don't think you'd come to see any of this from Gill.
I don't think anyone here would be unhappy with Gill. He is a hot commodity candidate with a proven track record as a head coach, unlike Chizik.
I think JP has to try and hunt down someone who has had success at a non-bcs school. Right now, after failure with Gene, I want someone who has succeeded as a head coach.
