*repost* Beaver, Let’s assume Pruitt gets hired for a moment. I, for one, will not be mad at you. You were entertaining at the very least. I do have one favor to ask, however. Would you mind expounding on the origin of your insights a bit? I’m not looking for names. I just want a clearer...

On a related note, Chris Low tweeted that of the last 40 SEC head coaches hired, only 4 had prior HC experience.

Considering Pruitt’s ties, it’s doubtful he would leave just to be Gruden’s DC...even for more money.

We’ve patiently waited for a qualified coach to lead our team. If it doesn’t happen once again, we’re all entitled to freak out. We’ll come around to support Mr. google coach come September 2018.

Malzahn was oc at Auburn from 2009-2011. Prior to that he spent one year at Tulsa, preceded by a year at Arkansas. His innovative approach to offense was highly touted throughout, even while he was still coaching high school ball. Tee is “the nation’s best recruiter.” But he has yet to...

Smart served as DC for numerous years under the best coach in college football. Tee has shared playcalling duties under a promising young coach. That’s a big difference.

We all love Tee, so why risk tarnishing his image under an unproven head coach?

The 2010 Colorado Buffaloes needed to revive their program. Their search committee considered Gus Malzahn and Troy Calhoun, but opted instead for Eric Bienemy and Joe Embree. Sure, Malzahn and Calhoun were more proven, but they were not BFLs. They had not played for CU when they were national...

Messages much like this will become pervasive should we indeed fail to land a big name coach. Fans hoping for more will be told that their disappointment is unjustified given the state of the program. But listen up...UT has not hired a solid coach since Majors. (Fulmer was promoted.) Millions of...

You can’t afford to be safe and reliable when lagging behind your competition. Closing the gap will take vision, boldness, and innovation. I hope UT considers this when weighing a Les Miles hire. He is the safest of all potential candidates. He has experience and accomplishments. He’s familiar...

At the presser, Fulmer referred to some in the past who declined UT but might now be interested. It was arguably his most candid remark. My guess is that he had Patterson on the brain. Remember, Patterson publicly chided UT a few weeks ago for basically choosing flash over substance. And who can...

No death threats please. We want him around to witness the carnage he has created. And by around, I mean somewhere far from Knoxville with an internet connection.

National columnists are now being more candid about Gruden, and it doesn’t look good for him or us Grudenites. Pat Forde earlier today: “Forget the Fantasy Island remix of a rendezvous with Jon Gruden, a shameless ego play by the ESPN announcer and a pitiful catfishing of a gullible...
