Ring ring.
Jaguars:  Are you available to interview on Friday?
Candidate:  Yes.  I'm also available Saturday, Sunday and all of next week.  Oh, I'm actually available tomorrow too.
Jaguars:  See you Friday at 9am.
Click.

Dilla seems to think it’s down to Leftwich (the favorite) Hackett and Eberflus.

Probably all good picks.  

But I wouldn't focus too much on the latest results they've had as coordinators.  And I wouldn't necessarily pick who I think is the best coordinator.  Of course, it is absolutely necessary for a head coach to understand the job of his coordinators and their systems.  I think that handicapped Urban Meyer immensely.  

I think the focus should be on who can provide steady strong leadership.  And of course maintain credibility with the players- something UM completely flunked when he stayed in Cincy after that game.
