Jimbo Fisher
Dabo Sweeny
David Shaw
Jim Harbaugh

Just to name a few. Just wondering why we have not heard of any College Coaches scheduled for interviews.

What say you?
Anyone else think the Bengals would be better served with a College guy?

I think any coach that is perennially in the CFP should just stick where they are at...they are very likely not going to get a better gig than what they have.

I think coaches that should/would consider are those that keep doing well in college but not quite getting into the CFP.
David Shaw and Jim Harbaugh are good candidates, although might need to remove Harbaugh since he no longer has to worry about Urban Meyer. This could finally be his chance to perennially win the Big 10.
Maybe Tom Herman would be a good coach to jump to NFL but he seems to be bringing back the Longhorns to relevance so he might not want to risk the momentum he has going.
Scott Frost had UCF undefeated in 2017 before getting the Nebraska gig but he only went 4-8 this past year.
Maybe Chris Petersen from Washington? They've been rather good in the PAC-12 the past few years but have just been missing the CFP. Plus, he could be reunited with John Ross, who really knew how to utilize him on offense. Just a thought.
