What’s your definition of “big name” coach? After the last few coaching searches it seems like the answer to your question is a resounding no.
where one or a few of the big boosters finally step up and we hire a big name coach? I want Pruitt to work as much as anyone, but I think it is pretty clear that he is in way over his head at this point and I'm not even sure it's arguable. Is 2-10 or 3-9 enough because that's where we're heading?
The answer is unfortunately no.. actually I dont think that the willingness to pay the money is the issue as much as that the coaches that are elite enough to garner that type of salary know they can not win here because of the lack of commitment and like mindedness from the admin and communitywhere one or a few of the big boosters finally step up and we hire a big name coach?

There was a number out there that Stoops or Meyer or maybe a Gundy-type would have said yes. Bama refused to take no for an answer when they hired Satan.Who do you think we would get? Stoops isn’t coming here. Urban isn’t coming here. Who do you want? We already tried to back up the brinks truck and were rejected by Gruden, Gundy, and others. I don’t know if Pruitt is the rt guy but I agree with Brent Hubbs in that it is ludicrous to think about firing Pruitt after year two.
We don't have anything.
I am not talking about Pruitt. I am talking about the rest of the coaches that have been successful at previous stops doing the same job. We just can't keep firing coaches when we don't have a great coach that has success as a head coach, or we will end up with another Pruitt.
Sure do. Ever hear a Bama fan complain about what Saban makes?
