The Dallas Cowboys finally found their next head coach, announcing Friday night that former offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer would be taking over the job that was formerly held by Mike McCarthy.

To those outside Cowboys Nation - and some inside - Dallas appears interested in an old friend for their head coach position in Coach Prime.

After the Cowboys parted ways with former head coach Mike McCarthy, Sanders was a name that was linked to the role, but he was never formally interviewed. Schottenheimer, who along with Robert Saleh and Kellen Moore, was the only other name on the short list of candidates and he was offered an interview.
