Recruiting Forum Football Talk XLIX

[DD4ME]

Why?

Basically Fulmer, Peyton, Haslam, Currie wouldn't like him so who would hire him.

 

[RikidyBones]

Currie, Bev and Joe have to realize that this is a massive black eye on their careers and haslam will not save them. They are sacrifices to him.

After sleeping on it I feel worse about this than when it was first announced.

I like Leach but there's no guarantee he succeeds.

Don't worry, we'll screw it up either way.

 

[vol2002]

Can we all stop acting like Jimmy knows anything during this search. He went on ESPN to declare we had hired Brohm

I’d listen to him if I were you. He’s been right on people he has shot down.

Heather Harrington and Pat Ryan on State Run radio trashing the potential hire. Negas.

There is no guarantee any hire would work out. Leach as a proven track record of turning around losing programs and being entertaining while doing so.

stop.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Leach wouldn't fit with Currie, Fulmer, Manning or Haslam. Who is hiring him if not them?, basically.

The fanbase who are here demanding a top here. That's who

You can say that about 95% of the coaches out there.

Defense looks to be just fine to me.

 

[HankHill]

Dave Arranda is part of the Leach coaching tree. 🤔

 

[Ericvol2096]

I swear to everything holy if they offer some other scrub over Leach I'll riot again!!

 

[vol2002]

Haslam is the issue not Currie.

Currie will be the fall guy. I can’t see him recovering if he trots out a $5 coach when this thing is said and done.

The $380 million stadium improvements loom large here. Why spend that much if you aren’t going to give the fans an entertaining product on the field?

He has succeeded everywhere. He made a good nfl receiver great in Crabtree. Imagine talent like that consistently. Players at Wash St love him.

 

[jordan4vols]

It’s reported that Jimmy said he didn’t think we’d meet with Leach. Uhhh Jimbo Feldman and Espn have confirmed we did.

 

[UTProf]

If they turn down leach all their asses need to go. They care more about their egos than UT and at that point I'm done with them.

 

[MSCE09]

I'm not sure they care what we think. It looks like we do, and is a convenient excuse to give the boosters cover in the national media and potential law suit over the GS thing but I don't think they care what we think.

 

[InVOLuntary]

Didn't Sumlin turn us down? How would that make Tennessee racist? We offered a fired black coach a job. Get real people.

Yea, but it wasn't a humiliating, public turn down that he would have liked to have seen.

 

[Burhead]

If Currie or the Haslams screw this up I'm not sure what I'm going to do.

 

[JCP201]

Jimmy just said he doesn't buy it on 1045. ****!

I trust Feldman in this case.

I will wait to see what he says.

I don't know how he wasn't thrown out of knoxville after that. Where is the accountability?

 

[gobigorange11]

Anyone have a link to how to fix the embedded tweet issue people have been having?

 

[Nashvegas31]

Mike Leach After Baylor Game (Explicit Language) - YouTube

Whole video is good but really watch at 2min mark. Don’t let Leachs Mopey nature fool you.

Love this video. If players wanted honesty they are about to get it. Zero filter
