That's nice to read, but what would you expect Helton to say?

This coming from a guy who is a marginal HC himself

Somebody please tell me for the record Tee is not represented by CAA.

USC had the #13 offense and #81 defense. Tee is a big part of why they are 10-2.

Also, a semi-finalist for the Broyles Award. (Top 15 Coordinators)

Time for Tee.

he is unfortunately i believe

 

[YankeeVol]

Awesome. Not at a P5 school.

We deserve better

 

[Forever151]

Mississippi state should call him honestly

 

[Beals]

Kiffin

I'd like a Kiffin and Tee combo

 

[preacherwebb]

i could be intrigued by tee, if i knew more of what his staff could look like.

Ronald McDonald - McDonald's is good food.

 

[Advol]

OHHHHHHHHHHHH If Clay sez he ready.......geeez that's enuf for me...... lol:

 

[BearCat204]

I wouldnt expect him to say anything other than that. Tee isn't ready for a job like this IMO and hopefully cooler heads will prevail and not make a hire like this over racial pressure.

 

[TheSpartan]

That's what we need is a head in coach in training.

The USC fans are calling for Helton to fire Tee, surprising Helton would be pushing stories like this.

Exactly

 

[EBFVOL]

Has he signed the deal yet??? If Tee comes then lets get him the ABSOLUTE best assistants we can buy for him and we will see positive results over the past Lyle leadership. I was promised championships and a team to be proud instead I got hit with a brick labeled the worst season in UT history and a dumpster fire as he called recruits while the door hit his ass. Thanks BUTCH

 

[KBVol]

Time for Tee.

Bring me Tee or Cut and let’s roll

I can't find anything that links him to CAA, however, I don't know that CAA publishes who their clientele are.

 

[VOLnMiami]

Hiring Tee as Head coach would be a huge mistake...I love the guy to death but he is just not ready and would love him to be the man one day but let him get some more experience running a program before throwing him into the SEC...He'll fail horribly and ruin his legacy here...I don't want to see that happen.

Kirby Smart
Phil Fulmer
Bob Stoops
Jimbo Fisher
David Shaw
James Franklin
etc all went from coordinator to P5 HC and killed it.

 

[Stoked]

Just because a coach has head coaching experience doesn't mean s***. Dooley and Butch had some and look how that turned out.

Plenty of schools have hired coordinators and have done well. Dabo, Smart, Riley, etc. Georgia's last two hires were coordinators. Richt at FSU and Smart at Bama.

I want a coach that knows what winning at UT is all about, and Tee certainly does!

Kirby multiple national titles as DC
Bob Stoops national title as DC
Jimbo national title as OC
Shaw took over what Harbaugh built and has done a good job maintaining
Franklin - is the only one that might be comparable to Tee.
