I get caught up in the 4 star and 5 star thing myself. But it is hard to argue with the results that Bama and Ohio State have every yr. But I give the guys a chance before I come to any conclusions. Look at John Kelly. A lot of 3 stars end up having big time careers in college and beyond.

I agree 100%. Cut or Harris hands down. Each coached at different times and the game was different during each ones tenure. Sanders was beloved by his players but wasn't a great play caller. Great position coach though and a good guy!

Thanks for the info. I only thought he'd been injured once during his fresh yr.

What's the deal on Bates? I'd like to know. I hardly ever hear or read anything about the kid. I watch him when he's in the game at LB, which is rare, but he seems to be around the football.

:olol: I'm not complaining. Just saying that sometimes you can find a diamond in the rough at a small school or a mid-major program. Maybe a guy like, I don't know Larry Scott, who wants to be a head coach one day and wants to prove himself. Nick Saban started out at Kent State in 1973 and began...

Very true!!

:good!: I'd prefer a guy on the way up who has something to prove. A lot of these guys are thinking about retirement, not winning titles!

I get hung up on stars as bad as anyone on here, but the fact remains that it takes 4 and 5 * talent to compete with 4 and 5 * talent. Butch tries to put his "spin" on everything that is under par in his program. I like positive thinking, but let's not be devoid of reality. It's not Rocket...

AMEN!!! Could someone explain? Anyone??

Player Development! It seems Butch's recruiting strategy is to find diamonds in the ruff. Get players that aren't as hotly recruited as others. If that is indeed what he's doing he and his staff need to do a little better job developing their 2nd and 3rd string guys. As we all know injuries can...

Hiring Scott was the safe option for Butch. Time will tell.

:good!: We want to be elite, but wanting to and being an elite program are two different things. I love the University of Tennessee, but I realize we do not have a storied history in our program like an ALA, Notre Dame, USC, or even OcryO State. The good news is we can get there. Look at...

If he was such a great QB guru then he would have already been coaching at a power 5 school or already been an accomplished OC. North Texas and Utah State are NOT the SEC. I hate to be negative, but I'm not impressed with this. But time will tell.

???? Injuries have been an issue since 2013. It got worse each year and this year the damn broke. Change at S&C was waaaayyyy over due.

You serious Clark?
