Jeff Fisher comments on interest in the UT job

[WilcoVolsFan]

Will they? They were 12 the last time he was a HC and he was not a successful one.

And in diapers the last time he finished a season with a winning record.

I’d give him a shot though.

Well you can’t go 8-8 on college ball so it would be a consistent 6-6...

 

[Glockmeister]

he only had 8 winning seasons in 22 years... has never recruited a day in his life. Not just no, but Hell no

On Friday, Fisher mentioned he would be interested in Tennessee’s head coaching position if it became open.

Fisher discussed the Vols’ program on “The George Plaster Show.”

“If for some reason coach (Jeremy) Pruitt is no longer the head coach at the University of Tennessee, yes, I would have a great deal of interest in that program,” Fisher said.

Hard pass on a guy who’s been out of coaching a while, hasn’t coached in College since the 80s, wasn’t really known for offensive coaching ability. He’s an above average to good pro coach. I just don’t think he’s a fit for college or Tennessee.

Would be a uniquely bad hire

 

[Delmar]

Nope. Play again.

 

[VOL_Lyfe]

Recruits will flock to Jeff Fisher...

Why? They'd have to go to Wikipedia to even know who he was.

 

[Ft.MyersVols]

Do they know who Tony Elliot is? I would say no

Where did I say anything about Elliot? I agree with you, they probably don't.

 

[rocketskates]

Nah. Loved him as the coach of the Titans but the game has passed up Field Goal Fisher.

 

[Nouveaux]

I actually thought he would have been the perfect hire for Vandy and agree we could do a lot worse. BUT I think we can do much better as well.

 

[All Hail Da Shine]

His offense is from the stone age.

Wing-T?

 

[PEPPERJAX]

There is a reason out of work guys like Fisher stay jobless folks.

 

[madbamahater]

[Arclight]

Field Goal Fisher

Fisher never coached a down of college ball.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

Performing in the Round

 

[Vollifer1949]

Will they? They were 12 the last time he was a HC and he was not a successful one.

He’s in the top 12 all time winningest NFL coaches

 

[bamawriter]

I’m sure most would know.

You sure of that? A current high school senior would have been in kindergarten the last time Fisher coached a playoff game or even a team with a winning record.

 

[bamawriter]

So what?

I was responding to someone that said he had.
