Although, Lincoln regressed in the kicking game. |

| Caldwell also turned down a chance to be Co-DC at Ole Miss. So much for him not getting respect within the conference. | |

Ive heard Petrino is a Tee Total Jerk. But he is a Great College Coach. Well at least he was at U of L. We will see about it in the SEC. Id say Arky will be no fun in a year or so to play. | |

Taylor has had more job offers in four yrs than any other UT assisitant in last ten yrs. Caldwell does a decent job I'll admit but he could easily be replaced.
I can't believe CBP entertained the thought of hiring him as his DC. Makes me wonder lil more about Petrino. I can't see Caldwell being a successful DC in the SEC.[/quote]
Explain, why? | I have heard each UT coach speak at a high school coaching clinic. Caldwell was the one I was least impressed with when it came to talking strategy and football - Slade was small notch better than him. I've watched him at practice up close a couple times w/ the DE's, just don't see it. I've heard him speak several times at clinics and I just can't see the guy being a successful DC on the SEC level. Now I could see Dan Brooks being a DC and I'm very surprised he's never took any of the DC jobs he's been offered. | |

| It wasn't mentioned in that article, but Brent Hubbs has confirmed it a few times. | |

I agree 100%. Caldwell has always been one of the better assistants on staff | |

| I'd put Petrino's college accomplishments on par with June Jones this season. | |

Also, I couldnt agree more about JJ. He's made Hawaii a program that merits discussion which is huge. | |
