Contract Extension for Coach Heupel?

[hog88]

OP must work in our Athletic Department. This would be the type of stupid move they would make.

 

[508mikey]

Dear God why does this happen EVERY TIME with first year coaches?

 

[Storm Shadow]

If he wins the next 3 games then I would absolutely not mind them adding a year to the contract. No reason to go crazy with money, yet.

 

[Cartervol]

Is that you Mike Hamilton?

 

[Joe Dirt]

Danny White hired him for a reason, and their relationship is in year 4. Heupel will get taken care of when the time is right.

 

[Jax_Vol]

NO.........gheeeeeeeeeeeeezzzzzzzzzz

A sucka born every minute, and two to take him

Listen, this may be a little premature to talk about, but if CJH holds serve against Vandy and South Alabama he will deserve an extension IMO.

With a 7-5 record in his first season, after surviving the huge number transfers and going through the process of implementing a new system to the program, he has proven he belongs here.

When the season is over we ought to make a statement that this is our guy, and you can get on the bus now or get flattened by it.

Can we be smart for a change? Stupidity got us in the mess we’re in.

 

[OldLofter]

No. Schools are getting burned left and right by the premature extension

As we did!

 

[volfan_28]

I love him as much as anyone, but it’s too soon for an extension

 

[DFWVolFan]

Absolutely not. We shouldn't even begin to think of an extension until after year 3.

JH is going to bolt to OK...hear they're not too happy with all those top 10 finishes and 0.857 winning percentage

 

[PetrosBoy]

No. However, if the Vols start 6 and 0 in 2022, he would deserve a bump for sure.

 

[MiramarVol]

Fulmer and his protege Cornbread are no longer here. No premature extensions.

 

[JCHateSteve]

I love what Heupel I doing. But he's not there yet. Let's see how the next year or 2 goes.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Nope.

 

[orangemadam]

nope

 

[Cartervol]

Fulmer " I'll take my chances with this coach". Yeah.. We see how that worked out.

Next year, if we continue to improve. I'd be all in favor if he inks a decent class, both recruiting and portal, and shows an improved product. I'd be OK with 7-5 again, so long as the 5 are more competitive.

After all, we all know UT's history of extending coaches. Never forget, THIS guy got an extension:

Put a light bulb in his mouth and you have Uncle Fester....

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Not just ok but hell no. Now, beat UGA, UF or Bama in year 3 and win 9-10 games? That’s worth a discussion.

 

[Illinoisvolfan2]

No. Let’s see what is happening a year from now.

 

[OrangeTsar]

Spend the money instead on marking sure the assistants all stay, especially Banks. Evaluate Heupel after next season

 

[CINCYVOL]

No. Schools are getting burned left and right by the premature extension

That’s what she said.

 

[orangefloyd]

Doesn’t he get a bowl bonus anyway? That should be enough for now.
