True, but our coaching situation is different than most mainly because of monte. Monte is being paid what his name commands. Lane is paid based on what he has done previously, which in truth isn't much at the HC level. If he starts winning conference and national titles, his salary will be up...

It is a good point. A lot of people have the ability to teach X's and O's (assistants), but it is much more difficult to find someone with the X's and O's that has the ability to lead not only kids, but his assistants as well. As Colin Cowherd says, 99.9 % of the time, people are paid based...

True Story - the friday night before the Bama game a few buddies and I stayed in Bessemer (just west of Birmingham) at the country inn and suites. We asked the manager what good restaurants there were besides mcdonalds, applebees, etc... He proceeded to tell us they had a "Macdonalds", a Subway...

It was Jabari Davis. He came in with Cedric Houston (I think) and played progressively less as his "career" moved forward. My last good memory of him was his touchdown dive against Florida in 2004 for our first score. I think I remember hearing he was lazy. Too bad because he was tough as a...

Don't remember exactly what was said, but last week George Plaster interviewed Mike Hamilton and Hamilton said at that time they didn't have an exact position laid out yet if Fulmer was to take it, but it would likely be largely a fund raising type of position.

Don't want to disagree too much, and I can't quote stats because I heard it on Doug Mathews Big Orange Sunday radio show here in nashville, but I do remember at one point (5 or 6 games) in the season it was averaging over 7 yards a play. We wouldn't have won the last 3 games anyways, but it's...

Exactly! Just like everyone else, I wanted Crompton out after the Auburn game. We got what we wanted with Stephens and he is playing as well as he can. Unfortunately he is a backup quarterback, and I'm assuming was recruited to be just that. Having him on the field has done nothing positive...

I agree with you. There have been brief glimpses all season that he is very capable of being a descent (if not very good) quarterback. I think Stevens is playing as well as he can, and we still haven't generated any more offensive success than we did with Crompton. I'd like to see him get some...

I've got to figure he's pretty motivated to win out if for nothing else to prove that the staff that he has with him could turn it around, as he stated in his resignation speech. That being said, motivation and execution are different things. From the look of Phil on the sideline all year, and...

He and Marcus Outzen were the first to come to my mind as well...

My reaction exactly. I was at work and checked espn.com about 5 minutes after the news was posted. I was so excited that I could hardly concentrate. I left work real early (central time) to make it home to see the conference and everything changed. I definitely cried a little bit, it felt like I...

CPF is what I have always known of Tennessee football and is a great ambassador of the university. While I am happy for the change, it will certainly be an adjustment to see someone else on the sideline. Thank you Phil, for everything!

Not sure if this has been mentioned before (i'm not going to read all of the posts to see if it has), but a premier/good job is solely in the eyes of the beholder. If you'll remember back to OSU coaching search several years ago, nobody wanted that job, they basically settled for Tressel, turned...
