Lance Thompson to bama

[phowell23]

Wes just updated - said Saban will probably offer but Dooley wants to keep him and will do all possible

 

[smokeyhuntsgators]

There was too much good news this weekend. Should've known...

Don't let it get ya down..Everything will be fine!:huggy:

Vol fans have had too good of a week on Rocky Top to let this spoil it!

 

[sonofUT62]

I like OCI a lot but if LT leaves, he seriously needs to keep his head down for awhile.

 

[508mikey]

Hinshaw, Chaney, Joseph. Only staff members remaining from this past year. lol

Maybe Bama will take Chaney off our hands

 

[DjCrenshaw]

Well, either way.... this is a wild turn of events.

 

[AllVolinGA]

Hate to see him go, but if he does leave, UT will survive. Hope he is making a decision based on what is best for him and not one out of anger about being passed over for the DC position. Oh well, we will still T it up in Sept. Go Vols!!

 

[CountVolcula]

Someones tweeter went over pre-maturely again

 

[allvol123]

I am guessing Thompson voted "no" in my poll asking if Dooley ever beats Bama.

 

[Tux]

We will be fine without LT.

Paging Kevin Steele. Steele is a better teaching coach and a better recruiter than LT.

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

Is this confirmed?

 

[MFL]

Does Sal want Lance or his on man?

 

[Vols4life]

DD and Sal probably already have a short list they are going to contact I have faith we will land someone that is a great recruiter & great coach

 

[smokeyhuntsgators]

And he's a better recruiter than CLT.

That is a positive way of looking at it.:good!:

 

[tombomcfaren]

we pay him over 400,000 a year. how does saban offer him 450,000 and he seriously considers it? I know alabama has the money, but all that jumping back and forth really doesn't give you a vote of confidence.

 

[tombomcfaren]

That is a positive way of looking at it.:good!:

its true.

 

[UTFanForLife]

He may be looking for a raise, since he didn't get the DC position. I feel like Dooley will offer a raise to keep him here, just speculation though.

 

[ChiefVOL]

With all the accolades for CLT during the DC search, I am suprised there is not now a push for a HUGH raise for CLT to keep him here

 

[smokeyhuntsgators]

This is good news....DD will up the ante, but if Bammer has a DC position, LT should be gone.

True..Maybe CLT is using this to get a raise??:question:

 

[iVol4Life]

Guys...

NOTHING IS OFFICIAL YET

 

[sonofUT62]

?

OCI has claimed the for the last week that CLT was happy and had no interest in leaving, even if Sunseri was hired over him.

 

[phowell23]

Is this confirmed?

No...no one can confirm that Saban has even offered.

 

[GmanTN]

Thompson may be wanting a raise

He's making 400K already as a position coach. I'm not even sure if he's done enough to merit that yet.

 

[iVol4Life]

Thompson may be wanting a raise

IMO, he's earned one.
