Not condoning it, but do you think Danny’s hire gets Schiano’d if it’s not Elander? I’ve not seen a single person want anybody else.
every CTV player is saying Elander so I hope not to witness the blow back if it anyone else. I thought aTm would have taken Elander after Schloss abandoned em so we are lucky he is still on staff.

Todd Helton I can see, but deputy athletics director and chief marketing officer Alicia Longworth, associate athletics director of administration Tyler Johnson and deputy athletics director and chief competitive officer Marshall Steward being on the committee?

What's so crazy about having associate level AD employees involved?

Wasn’t just TX A&M either. MS State fans also talked openly about wanting him as did South Carolina fans for their open HC jobs. I know quite a few South Carolina fans who want him as soon as Manieri is gone.

What does this mean?

Elander, much like Anderson, has been with the program since the 2018 season (Vitello’s first in charge at Tennessee). Per White, the decision came down to Anderson having head coaching experience and wanting Elander to craft his candidacy for the position in the future.

Come correct to the interview and the job is yours.

The only difference is that our “in-house” guy is good
Agree. Earley wasn't even the best assistant coach on Schloss' staff at A&M. The pitching coach was much more highly thought of than Earley. Really not comparable situations in my opinion. Our in-house guy has been linked to SEC jobs the last 2 cycles.

Don’t fully understand the love for Wes Johnson. His best skill as a coach (pitching) has been, by far, Georgia’s worst area statistically the last two years. I know he hasn’t had the most talent on the mound but I just don’t buy it. He also doesn’t seem very interested in high school recruiting. Almost exclusively relies on the portal to construct his team

1) Create a Public Desire - Who will be the next coach?
2) Create a Desired Output - Elander
3) Perform a PR Stunt - Coaching Search Committee with Vol Legend to delay hire and create intrigue. Float other names.
4) Give the people what they wanted all along - Elander
5) Hope this whole charade lessens the heat from you running off the most liked coach on campus - CTV
6) Double the talent acquisition fee and add fee for talent retention to the ticket prices
