Let's see....

No Gruden - nut punch
Schiano announcement - nut punch
Gundy - nut punch
Brohm - nut punch
Thinking Doeren was coming - nut punch
Mike Leach - nut punch
Thinking Reid Sigmon was going to be AD - nut punch
Hubbs being unable to rule out Kevin Steele - nut punch
Les Miles & His All-Starr Band disappearing as an option seemingly overnight - nut punch
Chris Petersen interview happening and then not happening - nut punch

That's 10. Venables turning us down would make it 11. Morris 12. And Steele being announced would be 13 and hopefully the final nut punch of the coaching search. It would also be by far the most painful.

Hmm, perhaps I've over-counted. After a while they all kind of run together while I'm doubled over on the floor vomiting.

 

[TheTimeIsNow]

I'd be afraid Pruitt would get us into NCAA trouble. Dude just seems shady as hell.

Morris is a risky up and comer

Venables has never been a head coach. Great defense and maybe recruiting. Risky. Who would be on his staff?

No thanks on Steele. Only positive would be staff. Doesn’t save him.

Les/Tee is safest pick, but what is the ceiling? Is Les done or is there still some left in the tank. Would he allow Tee to run the offense?

Don’t want Pruitt. Do not want Bammers in here. No!

Guess Brohm is out?

These are tough. Really hope Petersen is an option.

H
You are kidding yourself. Alabama is the #1 program of all time (or at least since 1935). As a former QB there, he will be off to Tuscaloosa in a second.

Former WR

 

[GoBigOrange86]

I remember you and I throwing his name around in early August. He's been one of the consistent names.

I remember a certain former someone who shall not be named -- head got a little too big for his, uh, hat -- was consistently pumping Venables as early as ten years ago.

Would love to have him.

 

[amazingGRACE]

Bring me Venables & let's trot

I'd think Petersen is out. He just hired a new OC today.

Wouldn't be surprised if he made Hobby is DC here. Venables would be a slam dunk in my mind.

 

[buffaloblue]

Venables is my number one option after Petersen.

I wonder if Tee would work for him? I think tee wants and needs to call plays.

If Hobby is DC bring back Brooks to.

Maybe Terry Fair at DB. Feel like he was our best recent dB coach.

Given the situation CPF was put in, he really has his work cut out for him deciding who to target with these options.

Hoping for Venables but expecting Hubbs to drop “guys it’s Steele”

 

[GoBigOrangeVols]

Venables is a "bring me", Steele is a "trot out."

 

[volsnvikes]

From the beginning I liked venebles from the coordinator list. Tee would be next for me.

Pruitt has had lots of drama around him in the past. Saban keeps that zipped up tight.

Do we want Lea without he AllStars?

I like Morris. I wish he had more to show in the W column for 3 years at SMU though.

And apparently Norvell must owe lots of money around Tunica cause everyone is staying away from the guy. Surprising.

Lol. That dude. Never seen another cult of personality on VN quite like what he had on here.

 

[TheTimeIsNow]

Please no Steele.

 

[BruinVol]

That’s a better point. Is this CFB HOF thing on TV?

I think the announcement is gonna be Wednesday at the earliest but could see it leaking out early.

Don't think it's on TV.

 

[seaofORANGE22]

Give me Venables with Hugh Freeze as OC

 

[Rishvol]

I don't think Tee would come to be Venablrs OC but maybe one of the Clemspn OCs would

 

[TennGentry]

Lol. That dude. Never seen another cult of personality on VN quite like what he had on here.

Whatever happened to him? He was such a jack wagon.

 

[TheTimeIsNow]

Give me Venables with Hugh Freeze as OC

I'd take that in a heart beat.

 

[Catbone]

I'm thinking tee isn't going to be part of the next staff at all

 

[TheTimeIsNow]

I'm thinking tee isn't going to be part of the next staff at all

Me no think either.

 

[seaofORANGE22]

No way he's coming here unless it's to be the HC

 

[buffaloblue]

No way he's coming here unless it's to be the HC

Assistant head coach and full play calling duties?

 

[Neyland Law Vol]

Has Fulmer even interviewed Tee yet? Don't you guys think he needs to do that before he announces the pick given Tee has made it known he wants the job?
