Can I use you as a reference and can I list my coach/player assessment capabilities as previous experience/qualification, when I start my new coach search firm?Everyone on VN, and I do mean everyone, is imminently qualified to assess the capabilities of every player and staff member on the team.
OP will be one of the first screaming “fahr Heupel” when he doesn’t meet his expectations next season.From a wins and loss standpoint, respectfully anyone that thinks he’s gonna come in and go 12-0 with the players he inherited is nuts. And he doesn’t even have all of those players because so many have left. I personally am not concerned with the record year 1. Of course I’d love to see them go 12-0. But I don’t care who the coach is up there, that’s not gonna happen. Not even close. I want to see a team that gives everything they’ve got, and continues to improve week to week. Plays hard every week. This job is a major rebuild and Heupel is a good coach. He’ll get it done, but it’s gonna take time. If you don’t believe that your dreaming.
Ok, I will bite. Tell me what you see in Heupel that gets you so excited? He did take Frost's team and went 12-0 in the American Athletic Conference, which I admit is good. After that he went 10-3 (6-2 in conference) then 6-4 (5-3 in conference). So UCF got considerably worse every year he was there. McElroy said on ESPN U that UCF was actually happy we took Heupel off their hands because they were already planning an exit strategy. I hope I am wrong, I pray I am wrong. But it really appears we picked up yet another no name coach who is about to be in way over their head in the SEC. Why we did not go after a known coach like Tom Herman is beyond me.
Yeah pretty sure that was said about the last coaching staff. Oh and the one before that and the one before the and the one before that... you get the point. Good to see your ego isn't burnt from all that self stroking.For all of you that dwell on the past, and our qroup of past coaches(especially our last) that couldn't coach a whole team of 5 stars to win ! Not to mention, all of the winning ass folks on here talking about how rough it's gonna be for awhile ! There's not a bigger Vol Fan on here, or a more REALISTIC fan on here than me ! We finally got a coaching staff that will give us a chance to win every Saturday. We will NOW ! Book it, copy it, talk BS about it ! We will see soon !
True I thought CJP was the answer simply bc he reminded me of the hard nose coaches of old but unfortunately it didn't work outThe same thing was said about every coach hired since Fulmer was ousted. I have been guilty of putting too much stock in every coach hired to this point. This was not who I hoped we would get. I'm not all in. I hope he has success, but I'm not going to be blindly swayed by talk, rhetoric, cliché ramblings...etc. I will hold out to see what the product looks like on the field. We have a ways to go, and know it can be a lengthy process after 3 really bad coaching hires in a row. Even at that, you can still tell if the players we have are well coached, and ready to play. We will see.
Lol...the rest of the SEC coaches are on pins and needlesFor all of you that dwell on the past, and our qroup of past coaches(especially our last) that couldn't coach a whole team of 5 stars to win !
