that he sucks.
Adams: Some names to toss around while you're bored : Columns : GoVolsXtra.com
John Adam's proved once again that he is a terrible sports writer. I can't wait until UT returns to glory and the talk of the town is the offensive/defensive statistics, championship runs, and all-american/sec performances. When the good times return, there will no longer be a need for negative reporting, embarassing satires, and idiotic sports analysis. I dread a day when we return to the national spotlight, and a major nat network uses this stooge's local perspective. The only "funny" in a Adam's article is the clown's name at the top.
Adams thinks these guys are qualified to coach at UT and is surpised at the lack of rumors around their names.
1) Rich Rod- This is a perfect example of why John Adams sucks and isn't funny. I imagine he noticed us FANS having fun and joking about landing an unrealistic super coach. Names like The Bear, Jimmy Johnson, and Tony Dungy were hilarious. More wishful thinking was used on some more realistic canidates like Gruden, Stoops, and Cowher. What John doesn't realize is WE are the FANS, we can wish and guess all we want with or without seriousness. Only difference between our delusion and Adam's ignorance is this: the coaches we brought up were/are some of the BEST coaches in all of football. The fact that they would take a job at UT was what made it funny and interesting. The coaches on his list are embarassing. Leading off with Dick Rod, a guy who isn't on a single Tennessean's top 10 list, is just an insult to our genuine optimism and not even funny. John, you are the 30 year old at the prom post party. You don't fit in and and you never can. You just need to leave and not come back.
2) June Jones- This right here is a delibirate attempt to make us cuss. Adams has heard the resistance to Leach's offense and read it on the message boards. Everybody knows that June Jones offense is even more wackier than Leach and only said this to piss those people off.
3) Hiring Petrino is like sex with a stripper, would do it in a heartbeat if the consequences weren't so devestating. Petrino is good, but he has no idea what his career objectives are or what state he currently lives in. No matter who you root for at what level, fans of the game are sick of seeing selfish coaches royally screw good fans, storied programs, and unfortunate players. Good or not, Petrino has been bad for football recently. Anyone who would recommend Petrino to the team they write about is messed up. You make a living covering the UT personalities but not the actual sports or games so I can see how your career could benefit from a $4million circus in town.
4) Lovie and Muschamp are the only two guys that fit on both Adam's list and the fans wish list. Adam's is right, Muschamp should be at least considered. Before TT beat UTX Muschamp was one of the hottest names in the nation. It's very surprising how under the radar his name has become, and those were the type of canidates Adam's set out to identify. Same way with Lovie, he's like Gruden but more realistic. He coached in a superbowl but lost and he coached at UT (but longer than CJG). No mention of CLS thus far to my knowledge. But it wouldn't be an Adam's article if he didn't consistently make an idiot of himself in every single paragraph. Muschamp would never sign up to be the coach in waiting at his alma-maters rival school. He could have a HC job somewhere in the nation this year. It is likely he lands his dream job at UGA in the next 5 years. So why would he make a horizontal move that complicates his availability and jeopardizes getting his dream job. By reading this, I am positive that Adam's doesn't know Muschamp is a UGA grad and has a masters from Auburn. He could veritically move into headcoaching this year for sure. Its likely he could even land at Auburn. But he's going to come to UT to coach our defense and screw up everything he's worked for.
Give me a freaking break Adams. How about Jim Leavitt or Paul Johnson who are legitimate canidates. Every guy you mentioned is either not wanted, really not wanted, not coming, or not stupid.
