Take it FWIW

FWIW, Cutcliffe makes $1.5 million/year at Duke. I think there are performance bonuses if we make a bowl appearance (any bowl appearance).

Lovie Smith isn't a homerun hire for a big time school in the SEC. No real college experience, and would need major help recruiting. Luckily, he would have Thompson, Cheney, WMG, Cregg, Kippy.

If Cutcliffe is the only other viable candidate....how in this world can we question CLS?

Hands down would be a better hire that Cutthroat.

I personally find it hard to believe any college HC would take this job during this time period. They're not going to shft the college they're at now to take this job. Even Cut has ten times more class than Lame & Co combined and wouldn't do this. Not unless Duke's AD gave Cut the go-ahead.

It's either NFL, asst. coach or Kippy.

Lovie Smith is retarded.. no really.. he is one of the worst coaches ever that is why if the Bears had more money they would eat the $10Million left on his contract..

My source just told me urban myer is in talks with hamilton

Really? The guy that won NFL coach of the year only 5 years ago would be a terrible hire? The guy that has SIGNIFICANTLY improved every NFL defense he's worked with? A guy that coached in the Super Bowl a few years ago? Gosh, with all the coaches tripping over themselves to come to TN I understand why you think it's retarded cartershaw. Riiiiiiiight

Lovie is a little name, he cant win...

 

[BigRed]

I would love for that to be Kyle Whittingham - awesome coach.

 

[tmac5469]

I hope to God that you are right but it is hard to believe because we already have 6 coaches including Will Muschamp, John Gruden, Lovie Smith, David Cutcliffe, Kyle Whittingham and Randy Edsall. We see what these coaches have to say about that.

The guy made it to a superbowl with someone else's staff. Defense fell apart the last 2 years and especially this year when he took over. 5 years ago??? Seriously 5 years ago Jim Zorn was the top pick and so was Charlie Weiss... How did that work out..
