I read this article years ago, and thought this was a pretty unique approach by Gundy to hire a coach, and pretty unreal from Yurcich's perspective.  He was working at a tiny Div II school as their OC, when Gundy called out of the blue offering a standard $400,000 OC contract...

I happened to think of this article as I see Yurcich's name being floated; anyway, it is worth your time if you are interested in a potential coach, or if you, like me, are fascinated by the coaching carousel and organizational leadership.
