New HC in Place Next Week

So we fire a guy that we now know was a red faced tyrant who was belligerent to those around him only to replace him with a coach known to be the exact some type of coach?

I think Currie thought one thing and now that coach or coaches either don't want to coach, better jobs have opened, or coaches are using Tennessee's opening as leverage to get a raise where they are now.

Don't forget this is Currie's first football hire ever.

Still waiting on you to explain why GS should be a candidate with this scandal looming over him. There are too many options out there to bring in a guy that was even possibly linked to a child sex scandal. Makes no sense.

There is no scandal looming over him? Very confused by this.

If it was a looming scandal he wouldn't be employed at Ohio state.

USC, Oregon, Michigan, would all have not wanted him as their HC
And he wouldn't be at the top of Tennessee's list right now.

Do you actually understand what's happening with that written statement?

Let’s pretend Gruden was never an option and even if he was, our AD tried with an obnoxious amount of money and he still said no simply because he doesn’t really want to coach. In that case how do you logically say no Gruden, no money?

Because i'm not willing to spend anymore money on UT so that they can experiment with fans money.

If he rolls out Schiano as head coach I’m done with UT football. I promised myself this time we prove we want to win or I’m done supporting this university.

What would be a homerun hire? It's not many homerun coaches in the market.

I think Patterson, Petersen, Jimbo, Dantonio, and Franklin are 5 top of the line coaches that have proven their "Top Tier" worthiness. I also think that if Currie honestly doesn't let money be a factor, and threw a 7mil a yr offer around to all 5 agents, that we could pry 1 of those 5 away. Not sure which of those 5 would leave, but atleast 1 would hafta come for the raise in pay alone. 7mil is alot of money. Patterson makes 5.1, Petersen makes 4.85, Jimbo makes 5.5, Dantonio makes 4.3, and I'm sure Franklin is in the 4.5-5.5 range too. 7mil would get us a coach. I truly believe that. I'm just not sure if Currie will go over 6mil with an offer. I don't think 6mil will get us a big one. Maybe Dantonio, but Michigan St might match. Gotta try tho

So, can you definitively say he had no knowledge of Sandusky's conduct?

Read it instead of just reacting to the headline....

You do understand what headlines are intended to do right?

Oh, I did. Did you? It says he encountered Sandusky raping a boy, long before Sandusky was outed.

Hadn’t seen this on here so........

With Sports Talk starting late from the OT victory...Hyams and Ferrara were discussing Currie on live tv in the Bahamas....not on a plane for the rumor mill sitings....or not searching as we speak for a hire. Hyams said a prominent booster told him the new HC will be in place by this time (yesterday) as we speak. He said the booster wouldn’t name who but the hire should be done....praying it to finally be finished so all the insane rumors will be over.

:dunno: :dunno: :dunno: :dunno:

It makes sense. If they could do actual interviews this week, Currie would probably not be where he is right now. Either they know exactly who they want, or they have three to interview and the offer is going to be substantial. And I especially agree with the last part. I don't know if it is the rumors or just our recent track record, but I hate coaching searches. Just hoping they knock it outta the park but dreading they will hire the biggest idiot they could find causes a king sized headache for us all.

I just hope they get someone who is worth the worry. I really wish I could stop giving a damn about it because it is stress than I can't control. But that just ain't gonna happen. See anyone who is going at the game, I will be the bald guy wearing a 15 jersey if I can find one tomorrow.

No it didn't say that at all.....

So clearly you didn't read what the Schiano reference was....

You just proved you haven't read it.
