A Hattiesburg American story speculates on who might replace Jeff Bower as football coach at Southern Miss. A few of the names are laughably unrealistic (former Texas A&M coach Dennis Franchione and Oak Grove High's coach) and two are intriguing (the coaches at Gulf Coast and Pearl River CC). The most likely candidates are South Carolina assistant Tyrone Nix (a former USM player and coach), Auburn assistant Will Muschamp and Georgia Southern coach Chris Hatcher, who's familiar to some Mississippi fans from his days as a coach at Valdosta State.

I'll take Chris Hatcher. It's no accident that GSU and VSU are very good teams in their classifications. Will he stay at USM long term? Maybe not, but I'm sure we would do great under him.
