You might not like it but they are realistic.

Swap Venables for Brohm

If these are the candidates, i guess the UTAD and others are fine with more of the same... another 5 years of slightly above average.... SMH

They have never once proven to me they can go out and get a big hire, much less a power 5 sitting coach and you guys can throw all the insider quotes you want to in here but it doesn't mean squat.

 

[chavisut]

We need more talk about Chad Morris and Dave Doeren talk around here. They've got to be more realistic than we know.

This post is more than enough.

I'll go on record by saying if Gruden, Mullen or Frost aren't up on the podium I'm going to be disappointed.

 

[volfaninpa]

No one does a coaching search like the University of Tennessee.

 

[bignewt]

Add Bobo, shiano, and Doeren to your list and I would agree it's more realistic that the others we see

I should have added Doeren.

Get ready for disappointment in fact I would say about 91% ready...

Swap Venables for Brohm

Brohm currently 3-4 fresh off a loss to Rutgers where his team put up a whopping 12 points. Brohm is a former OC by the way.

Swap Venables for Brohm

I think Venables is one of our leading candidates. Brohm...I sure hope not.

Of course those are realistic but they're probably on the third page of who to contact

 

[chavisut]

Can't go coordinator route ATP IMO.

 

[Rishvol]

Newts gone so paranoid with his tokin that he can't believe we'd do any better than a G5 search

Hey, I totally agree with you here, I'm just not happy about it at all... I think this hire, unlike previous ones, will define the program and a lot of the fanbase moving forward... This alumni is tired of 9 yrs of crap and wants us to finally move forward and upward. If we don't, I am definitely changing and downgrading my support of the program... And I have a good feeling I am not the only one ...

IYO Who is the best with quarterbacks? Or who do you see that would bring in the best staff that would help with quarterback development?

Probably JBC. He immediately turned around the Lions offense and Stafford.

I'll be fine with Venables or Moorehead if we go coordinator route. I'd be fine with Holgerson. Schiano and Doeren would be OK with me

You don't think either one is a realistic candidate? Not asking who you want, who you think they'll talk to.

 

[McGeesPub]

Why? He will be up for a HC job this year...

There is nothing in his profile that fits with UT. Nothing. No SEC experience, no FBS HC experience, no long track record of P5 coordinating success. If we hire a coordinator, they are going to have a pretty big body of work that has been vetted, like Venables or Schiano.

I'm not saying he isn't going to get a job, but it won't be at UT. He's honestly less realistic than most on the lists you disparage.

Heard a lot of the same talk when Dooley got the hook just sayin...

Ok he is coaching under Franklin who does have SEC experience. He will be a HC candidate and if you think our powers that be will not give him a hard look you are the one not being realistic.

Prove me wrong.

They can try and sell one that comes from a very successful program and you can thank Kirby Smart.

So he's coached a couple of years under a guy who coached a couple of years at Vandy? Yeah, that makes complete sense in creating an SEC provenance.

 

[jspvol76]

They will go all in on Frost, and UF is the only scary competition.

Who's your list of realistic coaches?

Moorhead is light years away from Kirby Smart. Your pulling a Butch- trying to outsmart yourself.

 

[Ron Swanson]

My guess is once Butch is officially gone Larry will start being fed different info and all of a sudden “Gruden is listening again..”
