2. Tom Herman, Head Coach, Houston
Herman has led Houston to a 7-0 record so far this season, his first at the school after serving as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach at Ohio State from 2012-2014. If the Cougars keep winning Herman will be a popular candidate for all the head coaching openings that have already come this season, but he has to be on Minnesota’s wish list now.
