On Sunseri... (merged)

Unless they were phone taps on the athletic dept. I will confirm everything is unconfirmed. Hubbs, Hyams, and the rest are grasping for answers to their listeners because thats all we wanna know.. . Good job by CDD and Hart to keep this quiet. Dooley knows the feeling of being the last guy asked after media reports that Hamilton bumped his head on the coaching carousel. He's a smart guy and we are going in the right direction.

Agree :rock:
 
Bennett is the only person who has turned us down. We never contacted RS.

I honestly don't know what to believe when it comes to what did or did not happen with RS.

IMO, there was just waaaaaay too much smoke to actually come out and say that the University had no contact with him whatsoever. Whether it was through intermediaries or what-have-you, someone representing UT had to have gotten in contact with someone representing RS.
 
All this is BS... Sunseri hasn't even landed yet. He was scheduled to be in around 3, but the weather has held up his arrival. Will fly back out tonight.

Not a done deal...

Hey 2inthedry....you still think Green is still coming to kville? May not be for DC (not that you said it would be) but for another position on the D staff. I still think he would be a great coach on the staff to have.

We are? 5+ coaches beg to differ.

My favorite Vols DC rumor today is some giving play-by-play on a DC interview that hadn't started yet.

Like I said. Our next DC is currently on campus at UT
For now....think I'll keep my money on OB and believe he's on the ground.
 
Is is son pretty solid? I've seen it brought up but not answered yet....would he be able to transfer here with no issues if his dad comes here?

Glad to here y'all think good of him. Is he SEC DC ready in ur opinion? What I really want to know is if we will kick yalls arse next yr....:)

Yes, Sunseri is ready.

As for his son, I doubt Saban would stand in the way of Vinnie's transfer. I just hope Vinnie would rather stay at Bama than leave with his dad, but I don't know enough about him to be sure.

We can do better than Wilcox...not a huge loss.....linebackers are gonna be beasts with whoever is there, and you don't think we can hire someone who can get more production out of our O-line than Harry? Also we picked up Jay Graham.

It happens...what can I say, I haven't had my normal [over]dose of coffee today.

And...where exactly is Leb-an-an-on?? :eek:lol::eek:lol:

HA! HA!!! HA!!! :eek:lol::eek:lol: I guess the stuff I've been on is either working me on over drive or about to wear off.
 
And Lance Thompson didn't make a lateral move from the same team, and under the same HC? Not saying that SS isn't being looked at for the DC, but with all that has transpired in the past 2 weeks, wouldn't surprise me if they in fact were offering a fat raise to coach LB's (not just OLB's). He's be promoted from a position coach over Thompson, who comes from the same coaching tree and has a year of experience under Monte Kiffin.

If LT wasn't on the staff, SS would make more sense. But with him here, it means addition by subtraction. Hire one position opening and end up creating another for doing so.

It all comes back to the Kentucky game. All the fanbase expected was a modicum of improvement after 2 seasons. Instead he has the program going in reverse. Add his previous record as a losing HC in a mid-major to that. Totally un-good.

He's back with that negavol stuff. Watch out folks!!! :)

Yeah. Because the only reason a coach might leave is that they do not believe in the HC. Couldn't possibly be that they don't like something else... like negative fan/media scrutiny, time devoted to recruiting,....

Not liking the HC or AD is definitely a possibility. HC or AD setting standards they don't want to live up to is another. Being job scared is definitely another.

But jumping to conclusions without knowing... just not smart.

Cool. Thanks BW. Now I will have to decide if you are telling me that to make me think he is or if he really is hmmmm... (I can't attach videos so think about the scene in Princess Bride where the little guy convinces himself into drinking the poisoned glass of wine) :)
 
Or the SLAM! as LT exits the building.

Has someone told you that CLT is leaving or are you going off of rumors spread on the internet started by uninformed people speculating on what they think CLT will do?

I know that anything that casts a dim light on Dooley has automatic appeal to you.... but I would like to see a credible foundation for your Chik'n Lil routine.

Yes, I do, and that's all I'll say about it.

Green will make an excellent coach! Twelve years of experience as a DC compared to Sunseri's, what 2.

Sunseri may come from another SEC school, but he doesn't have the DC experience, which is what is needed at UT.
 
I understand and it's a good pt. We just know that we have no clue how it will or when it will be. Other than it needs to be between now and this wknd.

Exactly my friend. This weekend is huge and too huge to not have a DC and 3 other vacancies.
 
Just had comm studies class with Justin Worley. I got to talking with him and I asked him if the next dc was shannon or sunseri. He didn't say much about Shannon, but he said it would be great to have Kirby Smart's defensive scheme here. TIFWIW
