| Best Available Job
With CBP appearing to be on the way out, how does the opportunity at Tennessee stack up against the other available jobs this offseason.
Take into account the NCAA cloud, facilities, tradition, financial resources, conference, returning roster and any other criteria you deem relevant.
The major players besides Tennessee for a coach are Arkansas, Georgia Tech, NC State, Oklahoma, Utah, Texas Tech, Providence among others...with the list likely expanding in the next week or so.
My opinion is that Tennessee has a strong argument for the best open position, but I'm biased.

| I agree but I'm biased too. Georgia Tech could be a nice grab. ACC School, nice facilities, decent tradtion, and a hotbed for talent in your backyard

| I think Tennessee is the best job open. I'm not sure how GT's money and/or facilities are, but if good, they'd be my next choice. | |

| UT, GT, and Arkansas are very similar jobs in my opinion. Sitting in the middle of downtown Atlanta is nice when it comes to recruiting though. GT is also getting a new arena in 2 years I think. Just depends on the guy I guess. | |

| Texas Tech is already a done deal. They'll announce their coach by Wednesday, probably earlier. | |

| Providence is open as well. Don't think it's as desirable as the UT job despite it being in the big east | |

I think Arky, GT, and UT are similar jobs. We probably have better support in place. Posted via VolNation Mobile |

| GT is a very good school academically. I would think they are somewhat limited in who they can recruit because of that.
UT is the best job. | |
