It would seem best for the Rams to hire Harbaugh and Meyer and Saban to put together a great staff. Add in most of the assistants from Penn State and Wisconsin and maybe bring in Dantonio for a front office man. 'The Dream Team" - that would be best. Get this done ASAP before the bowl games and give them time to put together a super bowl team by next fall.
Just the latest rumor I am hearing here in New York. Time will tell.

Buckle up. This won’t be a typical NFL coaching search.
The Rams opening, created Monday when they fired Jeff Fisher, is viewed differently around the league than most.
First, it’s for a job in the nation’s No. 2 market and all the potential that entails, especially with a $2.6-billion stadium scheduled to open in 2019. There’s the appeal of working with No. 1 pick Jared Goff, who has had a bumpy start but nonetheless is still seen as a player with a high ceiling.
Then there’s the reality that Stan Kroenke, among the league’s richest owners, has so much at stake with the Inglewood Stadium, and selling personal seat licenses, that he will need to think big when it comes to hiring the next coach — and has the wherewithal to pay accordingly.
With that in mind, the spectrum of possible candidates is wide and flashy. Several household names already have bubbled to the surface, coaches who might not be mentioned in more routine searches.
Some will prove to be real candidates, while others probably won't get past the rumor stage.
Among the most intriguing names circulating Monday were Michigan Coach Jim Harbaugh and Super Bowl-winning-coach-turned-broadcaster Jon Gruden, both of whom specialize in working with quarterbacks. Hiring either probably would require Kroenke to break the bank and pay more than $10 million per year

Didn't he post earlier about Tanner Lee is using some kind of new secret robotics technology to improve his 40 time and his body is rejecting it? Dude is either the ultimate troll, or devastatingly out of his mind.

Mike Riley is a candidate. My sources are telling me.

Maybe that is why Les Miles visited with his son this last weekend. It was a secret interview by the Red Fox Eichorst!
But, in all seriousness it seems like the Rams are looking to energize a fan base with a big time splash hire. Gruden, Harbaugh, Shaw, and Riley. One of those names would not satisfy a fan base trying to get behind a struggling franchise in a huge market.
