More FB head coaching candidates

Tom Dienhart of Sporting News

Northern Illinois

I have learned that Northern Illinois is focused on three candidates: South Florida assistant head coach Dan McCarney, Southern Illinois head coach Jerry Kill and Grand Valley State head coach Chuck Martin. I also have confirmed that Kentucky offensive coordinator Joker Phillips and North Dakota State coach Craig Bohl are in the mix.

Quite frankly, this guy makes up some stuff from time to time, so take this with a grain of salt.

EDIT:

The Tribune does a much nicer job of explaining what Jim Phillips is up to nowadays. Here is the article: Line forming for N. Illinois Opening

Leading Candidates:

Dan McCarney, USF Asst HC/D-Line
Jerry Kill, FCS Southern Illinois HC

Others:

Chuck Martin, D-II Grand Valley State HC
Craig Bohl, FCS North Dakota State HC
Joe "Joker" Phillips, Kentucky OC

And AD Jim Phillips is using Atlanta-based Parker Executive Search Firm to help him with his search.
