11/30- Leach and UT Reportedly Working On A Deal

Why do I keep hearing this thought? He has to get 4 and 5 stars to be able to do anything with them.

It's the same tired argument as get him a good DC and he will be fine. Well....why hasn't he ever hired a good DC?

Recruiting budget and assistants budget at UT >x100 recruiting and assistant budget at wazzou and Texas tech.
 
Not thrilled with this either. He is better than Doeren but why they refuse to go after Kiffin pisses me off. He would win immediately. Or a Steele and Tee combo would be better than Leach. Leach will never be better than 8-9 wins a year. :realmad:

Leach was a major cause of Kiffin's firing at USC, seeing that he beat Kiffin with inferior talent.
 
If his DC doesn't get the HC job at Wash. St. i would think he would like to try out his speed defense in the SEC. Grinch is a good DC.

His current DC is doing a great job lol. Maybe do more research before you try to make a point.

No deal has been struck between Tennessee and Washington State's Mike Leach, and Tennessee AD John Currie is back in Knoxville. Currie is scheduled to meet Friday morning with chancellor Beverly Davenport and other school officials to reassess the search.

Thus working on a deal...nothing to see here except confirmation of everything we already knew.
 
He just met with several coaches. He's debriefing and formally making the recommendation on the offer. Hopefully they'll get it done. Hopefully today.
 
I'm telling you, mark it down I have been negotiating deals for a living for over 13 years, CURRIE CANNOT NEGOTIATE A DEAL, GET HIM OUT NOW! HE IS A LAME-DUCK AD THAT CANNOT CLOSE A DEAL!

Recruiting budget wasn't the problem at Tech. Location and the fact he was lazy on the recruiting trail were his biggest problems. Now in his favor, it doesn't take a roster of 5* recruits to make his system work. With UTs location and the amount oh high 3* and 4* kids that will naturally flock to Knoxville he could turn the SEC on it's ear.

And the pressers...the pressers would be pure gold.
 
So.... Curries' meeting with Bev only lasted 12 minutes. What does that mean?
