Prepare for Steele

He is the absolute worst choice for HC of the candidates. 9 wins plus gets confused on the play-calling. Good lord please no.
 
Am I mistaken or did Steele's defense shut down 2 number 1 ranked teams in a 3 week span? Is Steele my first option, no, however to think he would be a dumpster hire is a pure trash take. The man brought speed to Nebraska in the 90's, had a bad stint at Baylor, had time at Florida St and Alabama, got Clemson's defense turned around and set Venables, then went to LSU, had Auburn's defense looking pretty good this year. Given how poorly UT has played both sides of the ball since Fulmer left, I am firmly on board with Steele.

He's not my top choice, in reality I would love to see them take another run at Brohm, but Steele's recruiting prowess and ability to build a solid defense make him a solid candidate given the current climate at UT. I think this option also allows Tee Martin to come back into the fold as OC HCIW scenario. Tee is not in a position to be a HC, allow him to fully hold the reigns offensively for a couple of years, then reevaluate when the program has stabilized.

Remember folks UT is coming off the worst decade in program history and is at a minimum 2-3 years away from really competing with the likes of UGA/Bama/Auburn. We just went 0-fer in the SEC. Get your heads out of the clouds. Fulmer knows what he's doing. And don't give me the well he hired Clawson. 1 bad hire in 16 years get out of my face with that junk.
 
Passed on Leach and Brohm, among others for this guy. I know he's a UT guy and that's great, but damn, good luck selling this one to this fanbase.

Steele is basically Schiano minus the child rape allegations and overall bad attitude.

Terrible hire.

Fulmer deserves to be fired immediately if he does this.

Remember that scene in Problem Child 2 where all the kids are throwing up on the carnival ride? Haven’t thought about that movie in years, but suddenly that part just popped into my head.

Did you really expect anything different? Look at Fulmer's last hires as HC... There's a reason he was forced out... How soon we forget

I'm ready to move on with this search, but I admit, I'll be a bit deflated if this is true.

I still think if Saban coached at Baylor during Steele's time there, he would've been the stench of Texas, too. But still, it does mean we'll be in this rebuild for a long time.
