Why so many complaints about the OC search?

Personally, I'm not disgusted by the way the search is being handled. If Frank wants to make a good hire, he should consider EVERY option, and take as much time as necessary (barring an offensive identity/playbook/philosophy is completed before the start of spring practice).

As far as I'm concerned, we should be interviewing current FBS OC's, Current FBS QB and OLine coaches, FCS HC's and some FCS OC's. Not a Chuck Long fan, but why not interview him? Just because he's interviewed doesn't mean he'll received an offer.

What about someone like the ODU coach or ODU OC? I think they've demonstrated that they know how to run an offense, despite being technically FCS, right? Frank should give them a call too.

It seems like our program is approaching this with an open mind, which is what we wanted (I think). Long's a retired coach, Hamilton is from the other side of the country. We're not Bama, USC, UF, Texas, etc, but we're still a marque program, and shouldn't 'settle' for someone, but we haven't done so (yet). We seem to be considering a plethora of options, what's wrong with that?
