I am 99.99% positive that we would never get Dungy to coach here, but how about handing over the reigns and allow Dungy to put his mark on the program by giving him control over hiring. I know most schools have "athletic directors," but why not just a director for football. Dungy's name alone would give the program instant crediblity and he definately has a passion for football, forming young men and getting more diversity in the coaching ranks. With this position he could have the joys of helping the U of M out, being part of young men's lives and creating a winning atmosphere. I don't think he would mirco-manage, as he has shown the ability to hand over control to capable people but could be an added tool in recruiting, fund-raising and hiring people who are great football minds. I know it would be something completely out of the box and not even sure if it would be legal under the NCAA, but all i know is i would want him making the decisions about our program more then the people who brought in Brewster. Remember it was Dungy who told Maturi that hiring Tampa Bay's secondary coach (Tomlin) at the time would be a great hire last time we were looking for a new coach.
