ESPN wrote:San Francisco 49ers' Coach Mike Nolan reversed course Thursday and revealed the names of three just-fired coaches who he says he's mulling for the team's offensive coordinator job, The San Francisco Chronicle reported.

Nolan, on his weekly radio spot Thursday, said he's considering Cam Cameron, Mike Martz, and Brian Billick to replace the fired Jim Hostler, according to the report.

Cameron was fired as the Miami Dolphins' coach Thursday, Martz was let go by the Detroit Lions Wednesday as offensive coordinator and Ravens' Coach Billick was fired Monday after nine seasons in Baltimore.

Nolan this week avoided the same fate as the three candidates and will return to the 49ers next season despite going 16-32 in three years with the club.

Scot McCloughan, San Francisco's top personnel executive, was formally announced as general manager Wednesday, getting a contract extension and a raise

I'd be damned happy with any of them, but I THINK Martz would be my preference, with Cameron and Billick following.

But this is what we/Smith need, imo. Well, this and a top receiver and better OL. :D
