JH doing what he wants on defense results in almost giving up 500ypg.
Yikes.
This would be like if Dooley went with BamBam right out of the gates instead of having Justin Wilcox delay the inevitable for 2 years.
How about Option 3:
I'm not happy but I'm not going to keep acting like a fool in front of a gleeful national media. It can get a lot worse than Heupel.
Which is exactly why Campbell, Fickell, Franklin wouldn't even consider one of the best jobs in the country with Texas.
Again: if Texas and even Auburn aren't getting their pick of the litter... it should be clear to us that we won't either.
Muschamp I think just wants to get in on Smart's staff at UGA. I don't see him coming here.
We *may* be able to lure away Odom, but I'm pretty sure we might just be stuck with Steele... which isn't *bad* but I don't think it's good enough.
Remember... Clemson was stuck in 8-4/9-3 land (which...
Why Billy Napier keeps passing up Power 5 jobs
Search firm likely told White that Napier isn't moving unless an LSU/Bama/etc type opens up. He definitely isn't coming here if he doesn't consider Auburn which has been worlds more stable and has more talent on roster than we do.
Texas also...
We have no idea what was offered. For a top-flight coach to come here, it'll likely require Fisher to A&M money.
People are forgetting how much money it took to get Mullen to Florida, etc. Our board may not ever be comfortable with a $75/10 or $37/6 deal like what A&M and Florida had to sign...
It's a bitter pill to swallow, but it's true.
But honestly the biggest issues haven't been the fans, the school or the facilities. There are a lot of programs struggling to catch up.
A&M struggled for awhile until they forked over BIG money for Jimbo.
Florida struggled endlessly until it...
The "home run hires" that are actually feasible (Campbell, Fickell) and the borderline strong hires (Napier) have already said no to Texas and Auburn. Franklin at PSU was not a realistic possibility. That's his dream job and I doubt he leaves for USC/Texas... much less a less-talented team with...
People who thought we should hire Kiffin or Freeze are insane. Yes, they're better coaches, but you can't justify either of those guys with their track records when Tennessee is trying to convince the NCAA that this problem wasn't institutional and wide-spread.
Campbell/Fickell didn't even...
We're in a much worse situation now than we were in 2017.
Back in 2017, Texas A&M/Florida/Tennessee were all looking for coaches. We were all (according to 247 composites) somewhat similarly talented (Tenn was #12, Florida was #15, A&M was #17). A&M had to spend $7.5mil to bring in a top-tier...
I'm curious if Napier and Chadwell were even contacted. It seems like White likely came into the job knowing full well who he was going to hire and created a "search" to justify nobody wanting to come here. When A&M wanted out of the rut and wanted a legit coach, they had to shell out $75mil...
