Kevin Steele

[volcop1]

i mean...if we are going after a dc, can we at least go after venables first?

hire kevin steele ut grad/player
bring home the steele defense

Baylor was 15 years ago. Get over it! Bring a VFL in and get this thing done!

Deep down do you really feel he could be successful? Be honest with yourself. Since we are in this much doo doo why don't we just go ahead and fix the real problem. Rick Barnes may be the lone successful hire we have made in the last 10 years across any of our major sports. Think about that.

 

[Aegon Volsgaryen]

Give me one legitimate reason to bring Steele in over Les Miles. One

And not this VFL stuff

 

[lilesrt]

Finebaum just endorsed Steele FWIW.

When has Paul Finebaum ever looked out for the best interest of Tennessee? Kevin Steele would be a disasterous hire.

VFL?? The guy has coached at how many different colleges over the last decade??? He is not a VFL.

Steele is 60 years old and has an abysmal record as HC. We need to go for a young hire UNLESS we decide to go the old route and get Les Miles. Les Miles is the only 60 plus hire that would right the ship and bring in great recruits for the next HC

Kiffin, Les Miles or Tee Martin.

Don't want as HC. D.C. Yes.

 

[FBtime]

Saw this tweet earlier:

Tennessee just finished with their worst record in the history of their program and it was still better than any season Kevin Steele has had as a head coach

Want went out the door Sunday with Schiano. What we can get went out the door with Gundy Monday night.

We are down to whatever we can get beg for.

 

[FORDMAN]

Check his record at Baylor and tell me if you would take any other coach with that record? I think not, no way, no how.

 

[VFLCodyGBO]

Nonononono a good coach can win anywhere (Art Briles) gonget Brohm who is a decent hire or Tee who is a gamble, don’t hire a turd and hope it’ll smell alright in a new room.

may I help you :neener2:

Orange blood went so well with John Currie.

 

[HollowaytoSeivers]

I like the idea of a successful DC coming in as HC. The fact he has Tennessee roots is a definite bonus.

 

[CountVolcula]

9-36 as a head coach

 

[Milerd]

I would be on the phone with Tee Martin, Kevin Steele, Dale Jones putting together a package to drop on the Admin in Knoxville, not Currie. If he could get Peyton to help with recommendations and suggestions that would be great.

 

[volcop1]

check his record at baylor and tell me if you would take any other coach with that record? I think not, no way, no how.

that was baylor & a long time ago

 

[Dudley Smith]

Orange blood went so well with John Currie.

He's a Wake Forest Grad

Perfect fit for this pos program.

Any time a fan or media personality says Tennessee needs to hire him we just have to bring this up.

 

[MurphyVol]

I know he used to be notorious for being a nervous wreck on game day. Once passed out on the sidelines and had to have IV fluids.

Seems like after the 70 point bowl fiasco, there were reports the he kind of had a mental breakdown during that game. Maybe players were saying he was calling defensive alignments they'd never heard of or something like that

 

[griddie]

Steele at HC

Tee at OC

Keep Gillespie

Bring in Dale Jones for ST or LB

I could deal with this.

Currie made the right hire in Schiano. We won't get a better coach at UT. Tee Martin? Please. Not ready. The snowflakes in the UT fanbase melted at the thought of Schiano and now the school is in a huge mess. Schiano is better than any other coach we will bring to UT. Nice job morons. To blame Currie is a joke. This one is on the snowflake faction of the "fanbase." Nice. Job. As for the Haslams, Tennessee wouldn't have half the facilities it has without them. So STFU about the Haslams.

So we have Haslams great facilities, highest earning revenue last year, storied history, top 10 attendance in all major sports, but yet Greg Schiano is the best we can get? What other team looking for a coach has trotted his name out there?

Think before you post, Mr Haslam.
