Actually he gets six years according to his contract. If you think he can rebuild and win constantly with a bunch of sophomores because this year is the first year he acutally gets "his" recruits in. He needs 5 years minimum before any thought of firing should be done (but I don't think he will...
I hope he mentions something about brick walls and champions of life, but in the context of forget the brick walls and champions of life, I want iron curtains and championship rings.
Remember the recruit who said that Currie told him that if there wasnt a head coach in place by then there would be a new AD. We will see and if it does last that long he does need to be fired. Guess only time will tell.
I would love to have lane back. I compare what he did to a man breaking up with a great girlfriend and the them getting back together because the first time wasn't the right time for them to be dating and then end up getting married.
Do you think that the backlash from the fiasco that happened yesterday will cause no good coach to want to come here and it forces the AD to sign Hoke as head coach? I hope not.
If Currie hires Gruden because its what the fans want and Gruden fails then I want Currie gone too. He needs to hire who gives TN the best chance at winning. No AD in their right mind will hire a guy because that is who the fans want and then say I hired who you fans told me to hire.
everyone pretty much has a losing record against saban. there is not many teams that can beat him on a regular basis so it does not make sense to separate before and after. right now until saban retires you are not going to have a winning streak against bama.
considering he was playing Alabama every year like we do I consider 10-3 9-4 pretty good years. Yes the 8-5 year would be a down year but he should still be considered a viable option we could get 6 more years out of a coach(not saying we need Miles) who is in their low 60's and have an oc or dc...
not considering the year he got fired since it was only 4 games into the season how can you say he ran it into the ground. he was 10-3, 8-5, 9-3 you also have to consider he was coaching in the west when you had multiple top teams in the West.
I wasn't using those 4 years as a negative to him. Most people on here knock a coach if they do not have 8 wins or more so that was a basis I went by to consider a good season. I think the ones dismissing Les are not considering him with an open mind. You have to look at all their coaching...
A coach who is 141-55 71% win percentage, 8-6 in bowl games and 1-1 in national championship games. He has 16 years head coaching experience and 4 of those years are 8 wins or less
Comparasion to Nick Saban 77% 214-61-1 coaching for 24 years head coaching 7 years with 8 wins or less 10-8 in...
