We will need a dude who recruits Wisconsin if Sundance recruits the Chicago area. It would also be beneficial o have somebody recruit Indiana.

What I'm about to write is going to look ridiculous but stay with me on this.
Every coach when getting to the final stages of a coaching search has the shell of a staff put together. They share that with the people doing the hiring.
Those coaches still have to actually pass the background checks etc and agree to come here so it might look slightly different in the end.
Now for the ridiculous part, I know a guy that heard the names direct from Coach Wicks. If he gets the staff together from the names mentioned then I would agree it is going to be pretty solid and GB will be in business on the recruiting trail.

Brothers sonny and luke coached together at San Francisco university for one season in 2015-2016. Luke is a recruiting and defensive coach.

Having to hire both as a television news director/station manager and as a public university adm -- I can tell you there are regulations and guidelines that have to be followed and documented. In higher ed they includes the exact period a posting has to be listed, percentage of minority candidates interviewed, criminal background check and drug test. The schools I worked for all had a three level review and interview process. Public and commercial TV stations have federal rules that reflect the same standard.
In GB's case I'm sure all of this is being fast tracked. From personal experience (from both sides of the equation) I suspect the supervisor in this case the coach, already knows who will be hired. The shadow staff is already recruiting and has freedom they might not have if they were "official" members of the staff.

Pat Monaghan at Southern Illinois is a guy you could see on the staff. Will Martin at Missouri Western makes sense too.

Eventually we will learn the coaching staff. I believe Luke Wicks Sonny’s brother will be on it.
