Yeah, there’s no guarantees, and I wouldn’t want the Titans to rehire him. That said, I’m sure he has the connections to build a good staff. I have no idea how he’ll be on the recruiting trail.And apparently we have fans who think a coach that went to the Super Bowl 21 years ago is a sure recipe for success.
He would be far and away a better recruiter than Pruitt. There's absolutely nothing he doesn't know more about than Pruitt concerning player evaluationWe have fans who apparently think coaching in the SEC is tougher than the NFL. Keeping an NFL job for 22 seasons is proof he can coach and that he doesn't suck. They apparently don't think an NFL coach could recruit here even though Derek freaking Dooley signed top 25 classes here and Butch Jones signed top 5 classes.
You just killed my wet dream.This fan base’s mentality is like a man saying “i should leave my wife and start banging Carrie Underwood, Beyoncé, or Jennifer Aniston” when in reality you can’t even get a smile from the fat chick that’s works at Waffle House....yea it would be AWESOME if we could hire Kiffin, Freeze, Campbell, or Malzahn...but if we fire Pruitt y’all better be ready to accept the fact that we are getting the equivalent of Mrs Scattered and Covered down at the Waffle House
That's a ridiculous assessment of FisherThis fan base’s mentality is like a man saying “i should leave my wife and start banging Carrie Underwood, Beyoncé, or Jennifer Aniston” when in reality you can’t even get a smile from the fat chick that’s works at Waffle House....yea it would be AWESOME if we could hire Kiffin, Freeze, Campbell, or Malzahn...but if we fire Pruitt y’all better be ready to accept the fact that we are getting the equivalent of Mrs Scattered and Covered down at the Waffle House
I am trying to respect your post count and likes, but your posts in this thread are just projectile vomiting against hiring Fisher. You are against it. Noted.At the college level? Prove it.
Would y’all think bill cowher would have any interest?
Not sure you do, yes the GM hires the players, typically they have a cap expert for the salary and contract nuances. Does the coach have input, yes, but, ultimately it is the GM who buys the groceries.So the GM tells the head coach who he is hiring as players. The head coach does not go and evaluate, interview, pick his roster needs while the GM negotiates the final contract terms.NFL draft days with the HC and staff in war rooms is just for show...the GM should be the only one in the room. Got it.
Yeah, you're right. Fisher has probably forgotten some things about the game.Yeah and I'd say he's one of the few exceptions. He also hadn't been out of the game 5 years then.
And he speaks English too.Yeah, you're right. Fisher has probably forgotten some things about the game.
Seriously, the five year hiatus probably has rejuvenated him some. He would likely be motivated to perform at a high level. He's intelligent, plus a pretty cool dude. Players would love him. He had the rep for being a players' coach, which in certain scenarios, is a great attribute to have when reestablishing a program
I don't "know" it. It's a prediction based on an informed perspective of his time with the Titans, KNOWING how he structured and organized his players and staff. And knowing it would be on a much higher level than what we're getting from Pruitt in those 2 important elements for building and sustaining a power 5, traditionally tiered programAnd you know this how?
Chuck Noll - 4 Super Bowls - .566 winning percentage. Considered one of the top 5 coaches in the history of football.
John McKay - 4 NCAA Titles - .335 in 9 seasons in the NFL
Steve Spurrier - 1 NCAA Title - .375 in 2 NFL seasons.
Gene Stallings - 1 NCAA Title - .405 in 4 seasons in the NFL.
Dennis Erickson - 2 NCAA Titles - .417 in 6 seasons in the NFL.
Nick Saban - 5 NCAA titles - .468 in 2 seasons in the NFL.
*Winning in the post-merger NFL is hard. Winning in the salary cap era is even harder.
I got a simple question: Noll and McKay are dead. Stallings is 85. What is the point? Unless you are an expert in cloning technology, and have DNA samples? I don't get it.
Be a great bridge hire
Get the program stable again.
Competing in games with a soild staff I'd say he'd bring in
Recruits parents will remember him coaching in the super bowl.
He wants the job,that means a lot considering the situation right now
500 in the NFL is a good coach
Could do a lot worse imo.
