Hugh Freeze with Cam Newton would have cured diseases and restored broken families67-35 overall, 38-26 in the SEC. One national championship appearance, one SEC title, two division championships.
vs.
39-25 overall, 19-21 in the SEC. Never finished higher than second in the division.
Only on VolNation.
Hopefully, something similar like this happened to a high school athlete where I live a few years back and he didn't make it, so every time I hear something similar happen I have to hold my breath.Yep, this is life and death stuff. Sports are trivial when it comes to stuff like this. Prayers for this young man. Hope it ends up being something minor.
Freeze or a big proven name or I'm out. I would be happy with fickell. I would stick around and give campbell a chance. Probably would give chadwell a chance too. If we keep pruitt or hire the same type of coach we are used to, I'm out. I'll buy ole miss gear and jump on the Lane train. Probably follow wherever freeze goes. You guys should do the same. You're telling the program it's okay, if you continue to support them even tho they wont put the vols in the best position to succeed. I'll come back once they get it right. I refuse to enable them any longer.
We're not the only ones. His agent was begging South Carolina to interview him and they didn't even call. Just like when he was trying to get on OC job at the power 5 level two years ago, his stock among ADs and school administrators is significantly lower than it is with fans. He thought he'd be a commodity as a coordinator at the P5 level and didn't even get an interview before Liberty stepped in and offered him the head coaching gig.
This. We are so down, but when the next coaching search comes around we need to act like "TENNESSEE". You make a play for the big names albeit quietly, Petersen, Stoops. Then I would go after active longshots:
1. Campbell
2. Fickell
3. Harsin
4. Bronco Mendenhall
5. Tom Allen
6. McElwain
Then on to McGoogles. I know some will argue Napier should not be on this list, but to many casual fans he'd be a McGoogle.
7. Napier
8. Jay Norvell
9. Doc Holiday
10. Chadwell
Now if Gus, Herman , Fuente were fired, I would put Gus in at #3. Herman would be #6. Fuente be #8
Jimbo is a proven coach
We like to hope we have a guy that turns into a coach ... news flash... we’re on the verge of coaching search number 4
Give me a guy with a proven track record. I’ll be more patient because I have proof in his resume that he will get things fixed.
Give us another experiment and first sign of failure we will hate them.
