Add Kevin Steele to that list.

That said the upside is no matter who they hire (if Schiano doesn't happen) the fanbase will be like at least it is not that PSU guy.

graham's a kind of lovely coach and whoever you get will be at least as good or better

I was very down on him at the beginning of the season and probably posted "Fire Todd Graham!" somewhere, but the team came around. This morning when I heard the news, I went back and looked at the previous ASU coaches:

Graham:
8-5
10-4 (won the Pac 12 South. Lost championship game and Holiday Bowl)
10-3
6-7
5-7
7-5

Erickson:
10-3 (tied for Pac 10 championship, blown out in Holiday Bowl)
5-7
4-8
6-6
6-7

Koetter:
4-7
8-6
5-7
9-3
7-5
7-6

Bruce Snyder:
6-5
6-5
3-8
6-5
3-8
6-5
11-1 (Narrowly defeated in Rose Bowl. They likely would've won a national championship if they got one more stop. Ironically, ASU was defeated by John Cooper's Ohio State team. Cooper coached ASU to its lone Rose Bowl victory years earlier before leaving for tOSU.)
9-3
5-6
6-6
6-6

Larry Marmie:
6-5
6-4-1
4-7
6-5

John Cooper
8-4
10-1-1 (Won Rose Bowl.)
7-4-1
Left for Ohio State having never beaten UofA.

Darryl Rogers
7-4
9-2
10-2
6-4-1
5-6

Frank Kush won lots of games in the WAC and then punched a player and got run out of town. Now there's a statue and the field is named after him.

Basically, the history of ASU football is mediocrity. Graham's record compares favorably with anyone post-Kush. He brought discipline that was sorely lacking from the Erickson era and academically the team has been the best it's ever been. To improve on the current situation, ASU basically needs to hire the best coach in the program's history while paying Graham $12 million to leave. I'll be pumped if that pans out, but it doesn't look like a smart bet to me.

He's been out of coaching for 2 years at this point hasn't he? And was bad before that with everything post-Reesing.

Jim Leavitt should definitely be getting some calls though.

The only way he comes out clean is a press conference with him going “Schiano was being looked at as DC for the head coach [name redacted] and we realize our mistake. Here’s your new HC and the DC search continues.
