As Dallas Cowboys fans nervously wait for more updates in the head coaching search, they're largely hoping that someone - specifically Colorado head coach and Cowboys alum Deion Sanders - winds up with the job rather than offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer.

The Dallas Cowboys coaching search has continued into Friday afternoon, despite there being a lot of buzz about Cowboys offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer being in a strong position to land the job.

On Monday night, ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter named two former Cowboys players who could be in the hunt for the job in Big D. They fit a route owner Jerry Jones has gone before with former head coach Jason Garrett.
