My feeling is the same - that Pruitt isn’t worried and that we’re essentially still waiting to interview new candidates.

I will say I’m slightly worried that what we’re selling on our end isn’t being bought by the candidates we’ve interviewed so far. I.e., personality fit, freedom of scheme, etc. I’m also worried we’re playing this so cool that some good candidates are coming off the board in the meantime.

Who knows? I don’t need a name candidate to be happy. Just want someone Pruitt and Friend can work with. I do believe it’s about Jimmy’s and Joe’s first.

The only one I think may not have bought what we are selling is Yurcich. On the other names mentioned, I get the feel that it could have been more about UT not buying what they’re selling.

I would like to think that CF would be involved and advising on this front. This is where his expertise would be needed and hopefully taken by CP.

And we’re not in the Big 10 who hasn’t been sponsored in the last 3 playoffs. Essentially they’re the tallest dwarf.

Truth. We aren’t as good of a team as them right now but that’s because of terrible decision making and botched coaching hires.

Pruitt will recruit to the same level as them and as he does, our team will improve as well.

They literally have nothing to offer that we don’t have except a culture of allowing assistant coaches to beat their wives.

Except the wins, national relevance and championships for the last 20 years.

Other than that pretty much exactly the same

Ok. If the team is better that means the program is better. Got it. Washington state is a better program than half the SEC. UCF is also a better program than any school in the country other than Bama because they’re undefeated. Got it.

Hypothetical - CJP knew Richt was stepping down. Richt wants less stress than what comes with being a HC, but wants to stay in football. Richt is the mystery OC candidate.

Has SEC experience.

Is someone CJP knows and likely trusts.

Would please most as AV has referenced.

I know...far fetched, but.....

Throwing $#!+ to the wall to see what sticks.

Tennessee is just as good of a program as Alabama

Mehlan wouldn’t win here because it’s harder of a job than UF and much harder to recruit to.... But UT is a better program than Osu!!😂

It’s all relative but I have high skepticism that any decent school in the Sec (one with a historical relevance) is below any school in the Big. Imo, any Sec school can beat any Big school on any given day. MO would’ve been their champs this year.
