I wonder when Herm Edwards' contract is up. I'd love to have that guy replace Vermeil.

And you'll get just as much crying
The other big name being tossed around was just mentioned, Nick Saban. He's a true Belichick disciple and they're very close friends. During this past offseason, BB went to LSU and spent several days discussing new coverage schemes with Saban. LSU has turned into a virtual farm team for the Pats with BB/Pioli relying heavily on Saban recommendations. One prime example is Randall Gay, rookie UDFA who's now starting and playing well.
Saban can flat out coach and some NFL team will be happy to have him.
