Apparently there is no clear leader for the Dolphins, at least none that have been leaked to the media. Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald points out that two potential names have at least ties to Mike Tannenbaum and that is a good place to start. Those names? Dirk Koetter of Tampa Bay and Hue Jackson of Cincinnati. Both coaches were represented by his coaching agency that Tannenbaum started.
Connections to Tannenbaum are not necessarily an indicator of a top candidate but as Armando pointed out, it’s worth noting and keeping an eye on.
Over the last week, Jim Mora of UCLA has had his name mentioned as a candidate.
