Huepel on Finebaum

[fla orange]

Have I missed it? I've seen Harsin, he has Malzahn coming up! I think he's had all new Coaches, but no mention of Huepel?

 

[wmcovol]

Has White shown up? I haven’t seen him either.

 

[jhen713]

He's had the new Arizona coach as well. Either he's spurning UT or UT told him to kick rocks.

Pondscum probably treated him like s*it

 

[GreyWolf1129]

Why would anyone from UT go dance with Saban’s bitch?

 

[YankeeVol]

I'd bet it's the latter

 

[VAVol85]

He has stated that we are “irrelevant” so maybe DW and JH have chosen not to impose on Pawl’s valuable time.

 

[fla orange]

I'd much rather know we spurned him. And he is a Saban lap dog

 

[kcvols1]

I'd bet it's the latter

Man, I hope so.

His approval means zilch.

 

[gardners_51609]

Finebaum is the worst! If I were Huepel the only way I would go on Finebaum would be if Finebaum wasn’t there.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

I'd say Heupel or DW turned him down. . .

 

[rdk4121]

I would assume we turned him down, as it would only help his ratings to bring on UT's coach.

 

[TnVol!]

Could not care less if anyone is on Finebomb.

To answer OP's question, no he has not appeared on his show yet. Paul just had Vandy coach Clark Lea on recently. My guess is that Heupel has been too busy trying to put together the staff and will make an appearance after the staff has been completed.

 

[Hacksaw]

I guess he's not too concerned with winning over the drunk Alabama graphic.

About to say the same. It seems pretty clear that we are more worried about a staff and putting pieces in place.........Judging from the recruiting forum we also are spending time recruiting and handing out scholarships. Much rather be spending my time on this than talking to Paul and the residents of Alabama's finest trailer parks who are the only ones able to view the show at 3 pm in the afternoon.

Just ask Sabin, "How do you hold your licker---by the ears."

 

[macrovol]

CJH is too busy.

 

[VOLfrombama]

If I was Heupel, I wouldn’t ever go on his show. Win, lose, or draw, I wouldn’t give him the time of day after his days long rant surrounding my hire. He has the right to say what he wants, its his show after all, but Heupel has the right to tell him to pound sand.

 

[Mose Phillip's Watch]

I actually called the show & asked why not late last week. Pawl said they asked UT AD office for interview but we haven't returned calls lol

 

[BigOrangeAl 1979]

Effff finescum!

 

[Kinglberry]

Why do any of you listen to that guy or care any anything he says? There are far better things to listen to in this day and age with apps, podcasts, replays. The guy is an idiot. I don't listen to him, but he pops up on ESPN or the SEC network, he's a moron. Parrotting everything he says, not an original thought unless it's some crazy take like Bayless.

I hope they never return a call to him.
If, and this is the biggest if in history, there is anything I admire about wee little nicky it is his refusal to suffer idiots in the sports media. If Saban does not control the agenda, he will not give an interview. All coaches know their relationship with the media is adversarial at best. Hornblower was the exception, he enjoyed seeing himself on TV or reading about his slogans in print. In the end he too was made to look like a fool by the media.

 

[Sarms58]

A much lower priority than getting the staff in place and making connections with the players...

Per the SEC TV deal, schools and coaches cannot decline requests from programming on the SEC Network.

Heupel has not done any interviews since the day he was introduced. When he begins them again in the next week or so, Finebaum will be one of the ones he does.
