Mine would include:

More conventional -

Tim Plough - UC Davis HC
Tim Polasek - NDSU HC
Aaron Roderick - BYU OC (hurts me to type BYU - but he has done well)
Todd Whitten - Tarleton State HC (OC at UW in the 90s)
Jason Beck - Utah OC

Outside the box -

Ed Orgeron
Tim Skipper - UCLA Interim HC
Jerry Neuheisel - UCLA Interim OC
 
What are everyone's thoughts on Brent Vigen?

I think he would do well. I know everyone wants a complete overhaul but I wonder if that would take a few years to accomplish. Like when Bohl got here. Maybe that is what is needed though.
Vigen knows the culture. Josh gave him a shout out during his halftime speech, and it made me wonder if that is a foreshadowing of what is to come. When he was here he seemed to fit the head coaching mold better than any other coordinator that has been here. I would pick him over Polasek any day.

I was interested in how he would do with Tommy Mellot graduating this year but MSU hasn't skipped a beat. They just won their conference I believe. They do QB run a lot but it seems to work. I think it is what is needed at a place like Wyoming if you want to score points. It neutralizes a lack of talent elsewhere.

I like Jason Beck from Utah as well. That would be an interesting hire.

I wouldn't mind Vigen but I'm hearing he is heading to Oregon State. I also hear that Mrs. Vigen hates Wyoming for the hate (I was admittedly among those that had venom for Vigs) spewed at her hubby.
 
Vigen
I'm sure he'd say no but Bob Chesney at 1.5 mill/year
Dan Hawkins
Jay Hill (I know i know)
Would Harsin come and be a fit?
I know fau didn't work but maybe Tom Herman?
