I'd be shocked if it wasn't Miles
You can't kill a program that is already dead. Miles is a clownshow coach. I'd rather have Ears Tubberbille, who wasn't nearly as good at Tech as Leach.
You just need someone who can control the press and Miles is gold in that area. Let Steele (who knows Miles well) run the defense and Tee get settled back into Knoxville. If you want Tee home, make it easier on him for the first two or three years. Poor guy will get eaten alive by our crazy press.
Taking a page out of the Gruden thread.
My sources say Miles to UT is a done deal. MOU is signed. Budget for assistants has been worked out.
We owe Shiano jack squat! Currie will settle and we'll end up owning him 1/2 or less than what the contract calls for.
Not so fast...Schiano may well file a Defamation of Character lawsuit saying Tennessee's failure to honor a verbal MOU leading to false acquisitions about what he knew or didn't know about Jerry Sandusky's actions at PSU cost him millions in salary and hurt his chances to get another HC position at another school. UT would probably have to settle out of court and drop another couple of million.
He can't be announced though because his kids basketball season isn't over yet. That s what I'm hearingFunny you mention that. I have a regular group that gets together every couple of weeks for a poker night. One of them is a mid level booster who has really good connections with some of the whales and a few guys inside the AD.
Last night he dropped the dime on the Miles situation after having a few liquor drinks.
Aw hell, never mind. Wrong thread.
Fulmer and Davenport both said they wanted a coach with SEC head coaching experience. Besides Miles, who else is there that fits that mold? Tommy Tubberbille? I'd rather have him than Miles. I could live with Ears. Houston Nutt? Nope. Don't want him.
