Super chat in here from Andrew Berg. Thank you, Andrew. Brian, hypothetical question. You're the new head coach of a college team with an unlimited budget. Name your dream staff, coordinators, position coaches, strength staff, and general manager.

0:34.2

I mean, I don't know. Who are my coordinators?

0:41.3

Hmm.

0:44.0

I mean, how do I not say the Notre Dame coaches

0:47.2

and still expect them to answer my calls

0:50.3

or respond to my text?

0:51.7

So I'll go Mike Denbrock on offense, but if I couldn't have Mike Denbrock and he chose

1:25.6

I'm a big Joe Rossi fan.

1:26.9

And I'll tell you what, he's another guy that I'd like to see one more year out of. But I thought Dan Ton Lynn did a great job at USC this year.
