NFL head coaching candidates for the Buccaneers job

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are starting on their third head coaching search in five years, having just fired Lovie Smith. It's still early and there have been just a few hours since Smith was fired, so we don't have a good view of what the Bucs are looking for right now. Two years ago, they hired Smith without interviewing anyone else. In 2012, they hired Greg Schiano after a month-long coaching search. This one could go either way.

The only name to have been mentioned so far is Dirk Koetter's, but the Bucs will need to interview at least one minority candidate to adhere to the Rooney Rule.
