Gruden is not going to be the Coach at Tennessee! How much more proof do people need?

Lots of names being tossed around. One thing that seems to be lost on most here is the fact that there has to be mutual interest. Some have suggested throwing money at it, well that didn't work. See Mike Gundy. The person has to actually want to come here.

Everyone is simply assuming that no one has tested the waters for, Miles, Sumlin, etc and so on. Sure they could go to each one of them and the spectacle of being turned down would be just as harmful.

I mean has it occurred to anyone that these few Coach's that they are contacting are the only ones that have remotely expressed interest?

Lots of people advocating for Tee Martin. Love the guy, but the program is not in a place where he could be successful. We would basically be setting him up to fail before his career even begins. Why do that to him?

Kiffin? Too many burned bridges and he would never get the support of a lot of fans and especially boosters.

We may simply have to take what we can get.

90% of fans here support him. Who cares what boosters think.

Do you have official word that offers have been made to these individuals, or are you going by erroneous media reports in the last few days that have all turned out to be wrong? No need for any AD to seriously engage a backup candidate when they already have their guy. When you finish the search early enough but can’t make an official announcement until that person finishes their current season, you have to use diversionary tactics to distract people.

Show it to me. I call your bluff

I’ll let you know when the media starts leaking his name in connection with our search, which hasn’t happened yet. When he starts getting the Schiano/Brohm/Gundy/Doeren/Kiffin action in the media, it’s on like Donkey Kong.

I cannot start a thread. Can we have someone put , say 10 candidates(if there are that many) and let the fans vote? Maybe someone will look at it

There is one candidate. Will be announced soon.
Dude, you keep posting that with absolutely no hint of who it might be. Hell, who ever it is could or will be the guy your alluding too and we would never know the difference.

Don’t fret. Coach is already locked up, just can’t be announced until after Saturday’s games. You’ll be happy.
I won't be unless his last name is Kiffin. Other than that it is another disaster in the making.
