I was licking my chops thinking Gruden was going to coach here,but as long as they get the right person,I wouldn't care if they take all winter.We've experienced what a hurry up hire gets you.

Fisher makes the most sense as he wants out of FSU and has a connection with Hart from his days there.. Would help our recruiting in FL. Still bothers me he lost to NC St. ( heck, even Dooley beat them) as well as Florida.

And the fact that we are now offering kids that are committed to FSU. Gee doesn't take much to connect the dots does it.

I'm okay with him. I think Strong Fedora or Petrino would be better but anything would be an upgrade from what we just had. Heck I could have done better than what we've had!

:good!:

Skeeter on here last night said golden and Davis were out. I think Gruden is out. Skeeter thought Gundy was just trying to get away raise to stay at osu

Paterson stays at tcu. Mullins to Colorado.

So I think Charlie or Jimbo make the most sense.




But it changes every day. Hart will interview some dudes in new York this week. I bet we have one in place by friday

Why would Mullins go to Colorado? That place is a dumpster fire. So is Auburn right now

Mora is terrible. Three years before he alienates everyone in that program. The guy is just a huge a**hole. No interest. I think the only hires I would like less than Mora would be Smart, Tressel, or Petrino.

I like Fisher, Strong, or Fedora. Also, what's with all the Golden hate? I think he would be a good candidate.

I remember Fisher at LSU that's part of the reason they ended up with Les Miles today, LSU in those days were middle of the road team for the SEC. Is that really what we want? Big difference in ACC and SEC ball.

I'm concerned about Fisher's recruiting. He recruits well at FSU, but that's not exactly hard. UT is a different animal when it comes to recruiting. However, he could use his connections down there and maybe convince some of those FL players to come to UT. Either way, it's an upgrade over Dooley.

The middle of the road championship from an OC. Those suck - totally unacceptable.

I have a good friend at church that goes to UT. He played football in high school, but never got to play in college. Anyways, he's made a few friends on the UT football team. We were talking about the coaching search and I was talking about how we're probably gonna end up with Golden and he said he didn't think so. He then said that one of his friends, currently on the team, said Fisher has been hired. Don't shoot the messenger, this is just what I heard from him tonight :corso:

Don't know who is dumber the OP or the 2 up voters

OSU spokesperson said last night that UT had not requested permission to speak to Gundy. Today school had no comment. Tennessee's coaching search turns to Oklahoma State's Mike Gundy » GoVolsXtra

I would rather have Charlie Strong ... don't really know why but he just seems like the right guy at the right time in his career. Whoever it is will have my full support as a Vol fan, of course. Just hope that Hinshaw, Graham, and Pittman stay.

Strong = Defense!! I like it!

Fisher will be a horrible hire. Need to go ahead and fire Hart.

Fisher is night and day better then Al Golden and most others ppl talk about on here. I like Mora too but he's a west coast guy and that doesn't bold well for us usually it seams. Fisher would be very good here IMO. FSU had really falling off since Booby got old and Fisher has really brought that program back up.

Patterson is waiting for the head coaching job at the 2nd UT imo.

I have been big on Strong for a long time.

He was OC at LSU and they averaged 400 yards a game with him. That's why he got such a big offer to be coach in waiting at FSU.

Tressel is the best coach outside of Gruden that I've heard being mentioned in this search. Tressel is a solid recruiter, and consistent top 10 coach. We couldn't do much better than him in the long run.

Listen, I've known this guy for since middle school. He has never lied to me and he's as serious as a fan can be of football. And as much stuff as I've seen about Fisher wanting to be in the SEC, this seems like the perfect job...even better than Auburn

Given the trouble and probation that Auburn will/maybe facing, it might be hard for them to get anyone other than another Chizik type.

This was on The Scoop page.


TCU: Hearing further confirmation to what we told you weeks ago, Gary Patterson isn't looking to leave TCU. Wouldn't surprise us to see an announcement of an extension to stay at TCU looooong term.
