Is Tony saying that on the radio?

I dare anyone on this board right now to justify how Steele will be in any way a good hire for this program and what this program needs to rise back up out of the ditch.

Show me in any way how this hire will improve recruiting and get us the upgraded talent needed to compete in the SEC.

Show me how this hire in any way will improve the ability for us to develop the current and future talent on this roster.

If the Great Pumpkin hires this guy, he should be fired by the end of the week.

Bruin: Hold my beer.

 

[volfanCLT]

Yep.

Based on? Hasn’t been even a top 100 recruiter back 4 years, I haven’t looked past that point because I had seen enough

Was just reading some Tucker stuff and UGA thinks it is a real possibility he gets it.

Their WR coach is also interviewing for A&M OC under Fisher and is supposedly the leading candidate.

 

[Lovesomebigorange]

Thanks Ron. If he's choosing between Tucker and Steele, I hope he picks Tucker.

I wish- he will pick Steele and it looks like that has been his plan all along. Steele was being pushed since last Friday in a big way.

It won't be....Chavis would be DC and Sanders OC.

Thanks, at least you tried.

I just can't wrap my head around how big of a failure this is going to be... SMMFH

Tucker>Steele. Very important, Tucker did get a degree at Wisconsin-Madison (dang good school) in agricultural business. If we have a problem with Neyland grass like a couple of years ago, we have our man.

I have now googled Mel Tucker and would be fine. Seems like a good coach and I can envision he would handle being fired in 3 years very professionally.

Les landed at number #5 right behind Saban. I think we all have different opinions, but to say Les can't recruit is just not true.

JAV on Tucker...

Those stats are the opposite of what someone posted earlier

I was going to push quote and pushed Like.

I don't think a nervous coach would be a good fit at Tennessee, even if he is a VFL.

Oh I thought you meant Steele. My bad I misunderstood your original post. I agree on Les.

 

[Jimmy Football]

It's one thing to overlook potential health issues to hire a guy that is otherwise a can't miss prospect. But hiring someone with Steele's resume + the health issues is mind boggling.

How'd he do outside Louisiana?

They say Steele landed a top 100 class every year he was at Baylor FWIW.

Melvin Tucker, 45 years old, born in Cleveland, OH. Played DB for Wisconsin, coached DB's at Bama and has been the DC for the Bears, Jags and currently Jawga. Also served as interim HC for the Jags and went 2-3.

I bet Steele keeps up in the top 100 this year.

Sanders? Would be odd considering he was fired from here as Fulmers scapegoat. Doubt he would want that. QB coach maybe
