The search is about to kick into high gear (or perhaps it has already?  hmmm...).  There are some interesting candidates we have not profiled here on BTP (Anthony Grant, Mark Turgeon, Kevin Stallings spring to mind) along with some left field options (Seth Greenberg, Vinny Del Negro?) and the home run hires (Miller, Barnes, etc.) that there's no real point in profiling, but we have a solid base now and I'm interested in how everyone here ranks them.

For the purposes of this exercise, assume that each of these guys would accept the job. 

As a reminder, here are your options, sorted by current gig (and alphabetically by last name within those categories).  My picks below the jump:

Current high major coaches

Mike Brey, Notre Dame

Jeff Capel, Oklahoma

Johnny Dawkins, Stanford

Darrin Horn, South Carolina

Tubby Smith, Minnesota

Current mid-low major coaches

Tommy Amaker, Harvard

Brian Gregory, Dayton

Mike Lonergan, Vermont

Chris Mack, Xavier

Gregg Marshall, Witchita State

Cuonzo Martin, Missouri State

Tim Miles, Colorado State

Chris Mooney, Richmond

Shaka Smart, VCU

Blaine Taylor, ODU
