Cutcliffe not coming

[terrimahan]

Just because Spurrier and Cutcliffe said they were not interested does not mean anyone approached them. I dont like how it makes it sound as if we were somehow approaching them and they "turned us down". I would think that neither of these guys were on the long list much less the short one.

It makes it look like we were really considering them and they would pick a Duke and SC over Tennessee.

After watching the Office, I really feel the need to say
"That's what she said" after reading the topic.... I apologize

 

[TennTradition]

not coming? I wonder who was even asking

I don't have a great source, but it's still a source - and this person said his interest was gauged. I don't know how official the contact that was made with him was, though...

 

[RockyTopEmpire]

Exactly. While we're on the subject, I would like to announce I am not going to alllow myself to be considered for the head coaching job at Tennessee.

It's just an honor to be asked, right?

 

[VolsRule]

Cutcliffe will act like he "turned down" the UT job to get another $500K raise from Duke.

That is backwards. You get the $500k from Duke and use it as a reason to turn down UT.

 

[EZE]

Not that I wanted him, but that kinda stings, taking Duke over UT.

I think Cutcliffe is being a loyal friend, here. He is close to Fulmer and wouldn't consider being his replacement.

 

[droski]

you mean just like fulmer was a loyal friend to majors?

 

[volmanic]

Sweet, that is two of my fears taken care of (Spurrier and Cut).

Agreed...:hi:

Yep! :good!:

Nah. Believe it for what it is.......he knows he can't succeed at UT.

Cutcliffe turned us down???

[lumberjack4]

whew we dodged a bullet on that one

nothing to do with that, with the success he's having at duke, he wants to see if he can take that program to the next level

 

[PineyBluff Vol]

ESPN - David Cutcliffe says he's staying as Duke Blue Devils coach

Thank Goodness!!!

 

[Rasputin_Vol]

Now all we need is for Chavis to turn down the job...
