Add a Gaulden Salute to Bama fans and it would be about perfect.Yeah man, it's been a done deal for weeks, the UT AD is just holding off telling everyone so that we can parachute him in during the CFB championship.
He'll land in the middle of the field during the cointoss wearing nothing but speeds with a coon-skin cap and an orange cape with the power T, and announce his arrival with a Rick Flair "WOOOOO"!
Book it, check my stats brah.
1.I didn't question Pruitt doing his job.Yurcich didn't Kiffin us. We waited too long. I am sure Pruitt has been too busy recruiting, he will get a OC but after what he seen for a year he knows he has to get alot better football players in here. Let the man do his job people.
I think he considers someone on staff to be a viable backup plan for now, so he's not in a panic.
If he finds a home run hire, that's even better. Better to not have something you want than to be stuck with something you don't want.
I also think about a timeline to get from where we are to where we want to be.
The pieces that take the longest to put in place in terms of the players are probably the big bodies on the line going through a good S&C program. (A young running back can come in a be successful more quickly.)
I could see him putting a higher priority on getting those big bodies ready, building the culture he wants, teaching his system, etc. He may have been thinking that if he can build that foundation (or at least demonstrate that it's being built) it will be easier to bring in the next hot name as an OC.
there is ONLY one way that this search which has draged on and on can be acceptable!
It will be OK only if the new hire is working in the Monday night championship game.
If not, then we are exposed once again as fools!
We are a hundred million dollar year program! We should be able to pick the OC we want and get him under contract!
If the OC is not working the Monday night game, and hired Tuesday morning, then this will be on AD Phillip Fulmer and we can all quit sugar coating it!!!!!

Yeah I know what he meant but was surprised he said it. He said something about teams being so loaded with talent that it didn't matter who the oc is. That's a tad concerning to me considering we are years off from having that kind of talent for it to not matter.I lost faith in this search when CP said "OC Can be Overrated "
I wonder why our due diligence is 6 weeks when other schools can get it done in a couple.
This is where im at with this too.I really don't know what to think. I find it hard to believe that Pruitt has his guy and he's just waiting, for whatever reason(s) to make it official. I also don't think he's had a plan all along to promote someone already on staff.
But, wtf do I know? I can wait as long as it takes, but I am looking forward to finding out who it's gonna be and hopefully we get some info on why it went the way it did. Not that it matters, but I'm just curious.
And Oklahoma fired Stoops in October and just named his replacement this week.Hell...WVU and Miami replaced their head coaches in less than a week after both got blindsided.
It's almost like the brain trust at UT with a first time AD and first time head coach doesn't know what it's doing.
