Of the candidates mentioned so far, rank them on likelihood of being able to take Mizzou to a Final Four.

Note: The reason I ask is that I'm not looking for a coach who will be "safe", I'm looking for a coach with the potential to take Mizzou to uncharted territory. Someone with a high ceiling, even if it's unproven. I just don't think Tom Crean is the answer in that regard. He might reach the NCAA tournament half the time, but will he be able to win at a HIGH level, at Missouri, as he gets older? I don't think so, unless he find a way to bring another D-Wade to Mizzou somehow.
