Doug Matthews show today

[vol81]

First off Gruden was not mentioned
Secondly he continues to lobby heavily for independent informed judgments by John Currie in making the hire
Timetable that we are telling recruits is around December 10
He would make Bob stoops and Jimbo Fisher say no. Then his list becomes Gary Patterson Doug marrone. Coach cut. Will muschamp And rather than reach for a coach outside of a power five he would look for an assistant that knows the league and is defense minded like Jeremy Pruitt orKevin Steele.

 

[Malivol]

If that’s his list we should have just kept the loser we had

 

[Carl Pickens]

No Kevin Steele.....

If we go the coordinator route I hope we get Venables.

Couldn't be more wrong

No Stoops, No Doug Marrone. A coach doesn't have to know the "league" to be successful in the SEC. I would rather have someone with HC experience and not just an assistant.

 

[Power T-Rev]

Gruden laughs at that list

 

[Power T-Rev]

Couldn't be more wrong

Im not sure what that guy is smoking

 

[Volnut]

I'd take Gary Patterson in a heatbeat. Shoulda took him in 2008 and we wouldn't be in this mess.

Because he isn't living in fantasy land

 

[Jax_Vol]

I hope that Doug Matthews is poorly informed.

 

[Volz4lif3]

I hope that Doug Matthews is poorly informed.

I hope so also

 

[Giveem6]

Doug Matthews sources are Jimmy hyams sounds like to me

 

[99gator]

I don't know what he's thinking.

I've poked fun here and there about Gruden, but my goodness, the odds of getting Gruden are higher than some of the names on that list.

 

[james_govols]

Will Muschamp?

MUSCHAMP?!?!!!!

Knoxville would riot.

 

[Vfl83]

If we go asst how do you pass Venables for Pruitt or Steele

 

[madbamahater]

HELL NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO TO MUSCHAMP! HEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLL NO! NO!

and NO to Kevin Steele......

Doug Mathews is the most informed in media and is usually right well before something happens....

If this is the list, which he isn't grabbing out of thin air...likely hearing some of this from Fulmer....then THIS IS FREAKING DEPRESSING. VERY DEPRESSING

 

[UTvolz9808]

If we go asst how do you pass Venables for Pruitt or Steele

If we go that way I want martin

 

[madbamahater]

.....also....Stoops is retired. Not coaching again.

Doug Marrone is a current freaking head coach for an NFL team. This is just foolish.....

That leaves some of the others Mathews mentioned and any of those would make me very depressed to be honest. Lousy choices

 

[Jravol78]

Will Muschamp?

MUSCHAMP?!?!!!!

Knoxville would riot.

he is an azz hat and i don't want him but hard to argue with the job he is doing @ SC. I am actually impressed

 

[awaitingawin]

As head coaches turn the Tennessee job down ONCE AGAIN Curry has no choice but to look other places.....it is embarrassing but that is where we are...
Your going to try to hire away a great coordinator or trying to get the best Head Coach that is not P5

 

[BeardedVol]

Stoops isn't coaching again, and even he decided he couldn't give it up, he's not coming to Tennessee to clean up Butch Jones' mess.

 

[Glocker_Alum_2005]

Makes sense. Currie was qouted he put premium on SEC experience. Go opposite of previous hires.

 

[Boca Vol]

I had to laugh each time he mentioned the Saban coaching tree. All I could think about was Dooley is a part of that tree.

- Bob Stoops retired for a reason.

- Fisher? Really? Low character.......good grief. There’s a reason why

- Mathews was fired at Tennessee. He coached one more year at his alma mater, then never coached again....ever wondered why? Have you also wondered why Mathews sells himself as a Tennessee guy, but he went to school at Vandy?

- Steele. Played LB for UT when I was in school. Was key recruiter for Chuck Webb. Would never pass the good guy test.

- Muschamp? So Mathews likes recycling the garbage.
