Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[WarMachine]

Where has it been said we were willing to spend a dump truck load of money? I keep seeing it posted but can't figure out where it originated from.

Atlanta Vol said we had FU money, and someone suggested 40mil had been committed

 

[Vol4ever]

Well White just got hired. Also, why is there multiple sports people who have said Kiffin would take the job and he is interested?

I would be good with Kiffin. Media types rarily seem to know they just throw stuff on the wall. I do finally trust the AD to make the right hire though.

 

[tnvols72]

Nope, I agree with you here. If AV is to be believed about having our guy ( I believe he is) this makes me think its not Lane.

 

[jordan4vols]

Brent literally said Sonny Dykes . He can’t be serious with that mess

 

[turnuptheVOLtage]

Maybe it’s smokescreen time for the VQ guys

I think Brian Kelly is an interesting coach to look at. Overall he's 273-96 which is about 74% winning percentage. He owned D2 obviously but his record at Notre Dame has been solid. I obviously think that the SEC is a much different league, but he has gone 101-39 at ND. I'm not all in on Kelly, but I can see where other than his age (59) he'd be desirable.

Mark Stoops is 49-50 at Kentucky, a great record for that school for sure, but he has not been consistent. That's a pretty hard sell imho.

Kiffin is 66-39 overall. He had a 67% winning record at FAU of all places, he's by far the best coach in their history. They had gone 3-9 the three previous seasons.

Urban Meyer remains as one of the greatest coaches in College Football history. He is 7th ALL TIME in winning percentage regardless of division at 85.3%. For reference General Neyland was 82.9%, Dabo is 80.9%, Bob Stoops was 79.8%, Nick Saban 79.7%, Chris Peterson 79.5%.

Sorry I'm behind, what is fu money?

 

[volfaninpa]

Hubbs and VQ either have no idea because they are out at the moment of close contacts in the AD or they are running interference and misdirection for the real hire.

“**** you” money.

What Rich people have.... **** You Money.... Basically money you can throw around anytime, any place because you want to and you have it.
Danny White being our new AD is an example of F U money.

I think the latter

 

[Dooby15]

I still think it’s Campbell.

Runs a clean program, proven winner, huge upside.

Sounds like the type of coach Danny White would go after.

I do as well. And I do remember reading an article that said he would wait for Ohio State or Notre Dame. But I also bet that last week Danny White didn’t think he would be the AD at Tennessee.

It’s all a guessing game right now until the actual hire is made.

At this point, it could be anyone.

They’re clueless atm. That’s why they’re pushing the Steele narrative because they know how much access they’d have with him.

Glad I cancelled that subscription effective end of this month. So pointless. Might as well say White might want to interview Gary Rankin

 

[tnvols72]

Auburn people were told by their insiders that Lane wanted their job too.

AU insiders

 

[theutvolunteers]

That is hilarious. Dykes and Cutcliffe? No way. With everyone being fired they may have a contact problem.

 

[White Bread]

Hubbs and VQ either have no idea because they are out at the moment of close contacts in the AD or they are running interference and misdirection for the real hire.

I think it’s the former. Although, they haven’t been on the forefront of great info recently anyways.

 

[Dooby15]

Uhhhhh don’t like that list

They don’t know. They were blindsided by the AD hire.

Sorry I'm behind, what is fu money?

FU money is defined as: any amount of money allowing infinite perpetuation of wealth necessary to maintain a desired lifestyle without needing employment or assistance from anyone.

 

[Dudleys87]

Different take:

Kiffin isn’t a pull in the same direction as administration kind of guy.

 

[UTwild82]

I'm going to be disappointed as hell if we have all these rumors and they trot out Lance ****ing Leopold.

 

[RockyTop411]

I wish I never read that article. Some of the names- come on, VQ.

I'm way too dumb to understand what you just wrote.
