Fulmer talking to Miles

[dtnvol]

Report: Phillip Fulmer has made contact with Les Miles about Tennessee job

So it might be

HC- Miles
OC/AC- Martin
DC- ?

I would like Steele ... could be Chavis.

What are your opinions?

Sounds great...HC, OC, & DC Steele...we could be back quickly 😃 VFL

2 SEC titles and a National Championship isn't "getting it done"?

I'd take that over any of our accomplishments in the last 9 years.

Clearly, he means post-2011 Les Miles.

 

[Special Ed]

I had a feeling Phil would Botch his first hire.
Looks like he's well on his way to doing just that.
Miles was ousted from LSU for under-performing in the West division.
I'm sure he can do just as poorly in the East division, if not worse.

 

[Hoof Harted]

If Miles is hired that would mean our last three head coaches were "Michigan men",, barf

 

[tnktm]

We all know Fulmer talked to him - why would he not talk to other coaches too? Why speculate he's already doing a deal?

 

[MRobVFL]

Clearly, he means post-2011 Les Miles.

Les Miles post 2011, is arguably better than anything we've done in the past 9 years.

 

[alaVOL]

No he isn’t. Not any more. Living in TX I have watched LOTS of aTm football. No lead is safe. NONE!

Truth

You really are special

Like that’s anything to brag about. We’ve averaged 6 wins a season in these past 9 years.

Didn't say it's anything to brag about.

We fired our coach to get an upgrade. Les Miles post 2011 is still an upgrade VS Dooley and Butch.

He isn't my first pick, but that noise saying he isn't a solid hire is ludacris.

In 2016 he coached 4 games and still had more conference wins than us this year.

 

[rdk4121]

I honestly hope it isn't Chavis as DC. He just doesn't really have it anymore. Love the guy, but we need Steele or Hobby as DC.

 

[dettor12]

Tee isn’t a QB coach. He’s OC/WR coach at USC.

Tired of UT not having an OC who also handles QB’s specifically.

Haha Tee is a elite 11 coach. Just Stop

Les isn't a horrible hire by any means, it's just extremely underwhelming.

 

[NeverWe'llSever]

Agreed

 

[MRobVFL]

Not to mention he won a National Championship here as a QB. I'd say he knows a thing or two about Quarterback play.

 

[NEVolFan]

IF this report is true and Les was one of Phil's first legit calls, then we are in no better hands

I don't understand code talk... but this looks promising.

 

[NorthDallas40]

Lol apparently Fulmer already made up his mind. Go look at Les’s wiki page. Yes I know how wiki works...

How about John Chavis as DC?

 

[MRobVFL]

I agree it's not what we all hoped or expected, but it's where the Administration got us.

Just think, a week ago... We were about to usher in the Schiano era. Let that sink in. We're Tennessee... sadly this is what we do.

3rd and Chavis.

We almost began the Leach Era today. That would be 10x better than Les.

 

[MRobVFL]

Exactly.

But we didn't. And here we are.

 

[JoAllan]

How about John Chavis as DC?

Have you all seen his D's the past couple of years?

Not knocking Chief.....but right now I would try and get Steele.......also Chavis and Miles had some........"stuff" when Chief went to A&M.

 

[Burger]

Exactly.

But we didn't. And here we are.

About to try and recreate the 90's with a lot less talent. This won't end like most people think it will.

 

[UpstateVol613]

So they torpedoed the Leach hire to get someone literally nobody else wants? Les Miles is on par with Schiano. Very underwhelming...settle hire.
