That's a real good question, since we really have no idea who would realistically be interested.
I know that when Giacoletti's name first came out as a candidate for the job in 2013, the reaction on Drakenation was extremely negative.
At that time, I think most on the message board wanted either Nick Nurse or Steve Forbes.
Nurse was at that time the head coach of the Iowa Energy (NBDL), now he's an assistant for the Toronto Raptors. He definitely wanted the Drake job.
Forbes has Iowa ties (born and raised in the state), but I have no clue if he actually had any interest in the job, or even applied. He's now the head coach at ETSU and doing well there.
A few names that people have mentioned this time, in addition to Nurse and Forbes are Matt Woodley and Kevin Gamble.
Woodley is a former Drake player who is now head coach of the Iowa Energy. Very tough, hard nosed guy who comes from a family of coaches.
Gamble played for Tom Davis at Iowa and then had a 6-8 year NBA career. He's currently an assistant under Keno Davis at Central Michigan.
