Recruiting Forum Football Talk XLVII

[Ron Swanson]

Random thought...

If you are Tennessee would you explore hiring Les Miles. Proven SEC experience. No buyout. Financially doable.

I haven't heard his name linked at all. I'm just wondering out loud.

Jimmy Hyams reported that Miles did call a TN booster to inquire about the job.

Larry received info that the Brohm talks are heating up.

Great!!


Make it happen quickly before the fan base gets behind Tee and revolts when he's hired

 

[therickbol]

This is true. But people talking about Dabo like he was a smashing success early on. After beating USCe as an interim, he lost 5 straight to the Cocks. How would that go over on this board for Tee?

Facts.

 

[Chief Vol 13]

I have such a helpless feeling when I think about the damage that the Haslam's continue to do to this program. Why on earth can we not have people stand up to them? They are the problem. People need to revolt against them in a similar fashion as yesterday.

 

[SeanJean]

Of course we will hire Brohm, another guy with no connections to UT who has accomplished absolutely nothing as an assistant or as a HC. We are so screwed.

I don’t believe anything anyone says anymore. It’s obvious Currie will tell the boosters what they want to hear and do whatever the Haslams want.

 

[HankHill]

Facts.

That’s why this thing called loyalty is so important. Which hopefully we would be with Tee.

 

[Vols4us]

They are just determined to find the biggest a-hole coach they can.

Bingo. Jimmy John countering our move with another of the same ilk.

 

[WarMachine]

I hope Bahama John enjoyed his vacation. He had no idea the storm he was sailing directly into...

Brohm is very good as well.

I think Larry proved multiple he hasn't a clue about this entire thing.

Yesterday could have changed that though

Jeff why would you want to come to the meat grinder known as the Sec

Do I have a pulse YES let’s play some football!

I can't believe he's still employed. Insanity. He's going to lead the press conference to introduce Brohm or Pruitt.

 

[chavisut]

Which is why i think you bring in Tee. Recruiting connections, unified fanbase/VFLs, well liked to bring good staff with him. It’s a no braine r

How united are the VFLs and fanbase if he struggles? Could see it becoming a very ugly situation.

 

[RiseToTheTop]

Former players tweeting like crazy about Tee. It’s a no brainer to unite fans and players. Naturally i’m sure they’ll try to get Pruitt or something

if everyone truly unites, we get this thing rolling with Tee a little bit then everyone else is in trouble.

 

[AAVFL]

Brohm is very good as well.

Do you think he will recruit well?

 

[volswillrise12]

Of course we will hire Brohm, another guy with no connections to UT who has accomplished absolutely nothing as an assistant or as a HC. We are so screwed.

I'd rather hire him as opposed to Tee I'm sorry--the guy is at least a sitting current P5 coach.

 

[SeanJean]

Honest question: What exactly about Brohm is exciting? Don't get me wrong. I'd take him in a heartbeat over Schiano and/or in light of what happened yesterday, I still think it's a fine outcome, but still: What is it?

VFGL or Butchna - thoughts on that trip to the Bahamas now?

Hopefully now we realize we’re a .500 team the last decade+ and actually give him time to prove us right or wrong.

This is getting Bruin-esque. We get it.

 

[SeanJean]

For less than one year, with very little success. Meaningless.

 

[RiseToTheTop]

i would be happy with Brohm but Tee is 7 years younger. No matter if its at UT or not hes gonna be a p5 coach regardless.

I can picture him sitting on the beach sipping his appletini like the flower that he is. Kick rocks, John.

 

[Ron Swanson]

So Chad Morris is the reason Clemson has been one the best offensive teams?... even after he’s left?

His system is a big part of it, yes. The other big part is the elite talent that is on that team. Dabo is an elite recruiter but don't pretend he's some offensive genius, man.
