Mario Cristobal is looking for a new job after some conflict with the FIU administration and he is a really good coach.
If they don't mention Dino Dawson in the mix, they ain't credible.

Clawson isn't going anywhere, he needs another year to prove himself before he's considered for any major D-1 jobs...also curious if his time at Tennessee has ruined his reputation at all among the larger schools.

Seriously? You think the one year he spent back in 2008 shackled to the corpse of Phil Fulmer would have any relevance to his job prospects? More than four years as a HC with two bowl bids?
It's not the fall that hurts...it's when you hit the ground.
I saw reports and tweets from Temple supporters and a fan board site. These people figure things out the same way, they hear from someone who heard from someone. All I'm telling you is now with Macintyre off to Colorado, Clawson is being "projected" as Temple's top option.
And MarkL ---- I read the same thing that both him and Drayton had been interviewed. I think you're thought process on Clawson not leaving is just ridiculous. If he wants to leave, he will leave, if its for higher pay, or closer to the east coast, or because he likes Temple's bathrooms in their coaches office, but don't think he won't leave because the Big East is struggling or because he rebuilt this program, that was the point. He rebuilt this program to win to give him a chance to move on to another gig. I appreciate your two cents, this is mine.
