The Splash Zone 1/3/19: Who Do You Want At Head Coach?

The news and rumors are swirling around and the Dolphins are trying to schedule interviews for their vacant head coach position. We already know a list of who the Dolphins are interested in and the hope this time is that they get it right.

Who do you want as the next head coach of the Miami Dolphins?
