It would be nice to watch him move up a rung when the Admiral moves on.
I have known him for a long time and think M3 is a good SF guy as well.

Agree that he would be a good USSOCOM Commander, but doubt that they are going to leave him there for three years waiting to take over from the Navy.

Assuming they don't decide it is the Marines or the Air Force's turn to be in charge of an organization that is more than 50% Army.
