Arkansas fans,
There are rumors floating around that David Cutcliffe's name is poping up as a candidate for your soon to be open HFC position. This would be a HUGE loss for the Vol Nation if you were to possibly score on that hire because this man has a reputation for grooming 1st round NFL quarterbacks and running some of the most prolific offenses this conference has EVER seen. The turn around that he was able to perform on Erik Ainge has been nothing short of a miracle. He turned a shaken and broken QB from the 2005 season into one of the top 3 quarterbacks in the SEC East. He has turned this offense around to the point that we have shown steady improvement in our offensive productivity. He was wrongly faulted (and fired) from Ole Miss after 1 losing season, and Ole Miss is still suffering the consequences of that mistake 3 seasons later. If that isn't enough to convince you of how valuable this man is to any program he is involved with, consider the fact that Charlie Weiss of Notre Dame made it a point to make Cutcliffe one of his first hires. Imagine the productivity ND would have right now had Cutcliffe been able to stick around and groom quarterbacks such as Quinn and Clausen. To an extent, you can say that Cutcliffe's absence from ND has made just as big of an impact on their program as it has on the Rebels.
David Cutcliffe has been a savior to our program. Right now, things our out of my control and the rest of Tennessee fans here on Rocky Top. We hope that this treasure continues to perform at a high level here in Knoxville and lead us to more SEC championships in the not too distant future. But if he decides to take that next step in his life and pursue a coaching position at your fine university (or anywhere else), I believe that I speak for most REAL Vols fans when I say that I wish David Cutcliffe well and hope he finds happiness in whatever path that he chooses outside of our program.
Sincerely,
