The DC search

Suggesting that these candidates would have listened does not mean that they were all in line to be the DC. Bennett listened and turned it down. Hubbs mentioned that he heard these names earlier in the week, therefore he took an easy way out. He says "Dooley chose not to pursue them"....This to me means that "I kinda heard this name but could not find anything else to back it up." He tries to create closure with these candidates so that no one loads him up with questions about them. I would not believe that these guys were realistic for a second.

Highly probable.

This, there was no way in hell that Bumpas was going to leave TCU. And why waste your time with Narduzzi if you believe he is just using it to get a pay raise from MSU
 
Uh I figured Brent Venables would be sought after since ole bobby is let his brother on staff to call the defense. I would love to have BV!!!
 
Didn't Dooley try to get Bumpass before he hired Wilcox? Maybe that is why he decided not to go down that road again.

Maybe Hart played into this decision more than people think.

My thoughts as well. I thought it was shared earlier that CDD did talk with Bumpas and Narduzzi at the coaches convention. Sounded like a concern with the latter was that he may be using this as leverage for an additional raise. I believe Bumpas received a raise in 2010 when CDD pursued him.

Either way, those preliminary talks in San Antonio may have been all CDD needed to realize they needed to go in a different direction.
 
Gotta be Sunseri since Skeeter says VN will be happy and Santos locked up. That or a surprise like Shannon

I'm not all that happy about Sunseri. He was a sub-position coach. LT came from the same position, under the same coach to work here, and had Monte Kiffin take him under his wing, to go along with his previous stint as DC at UCF. He even stated that working with MK was the main reason he decided to make the lateral move.

SS just doesn't make a ton of sense, NC nothwithstanding. I think hiring either him or Green sends LT packing, and we are left non the richer for it.
 
Tennessee: Here's the situation at Tennessee according to sources close to the situation. *Green was in Knoxville today, not so much to interview for the job, but to get a feel and make sure everyone would be on the same page including Lance Thompson and Terry Joseph. *Green wants to be able to recommend the other defensive assistant to Dooley. *Navy can't match Tennessee's offer, but can give Green a significant raise. *His family is very happy in Annapolis.
 
Why is this?

If it is SS,,guess you will just have to remain unhappy.
If CLT was not offered the job then both CDD and AD Hart have their reasons. AD Hart knows CSS - and if he feels that he's the best fit for UT, then so be it.
 
It wouldnt matter If Sal and Lance hugged at the presser. Some jackass on VN would still say Dooley made them do it and they hate each other...

how about maybe because our football program is drowning and we need a fresh name to give some kind of a spark. maybe SS is the biggest name that would take the job. also, how do you know LT will leave?
 
is over..Thank God, hallaluha, amen...Will be announced tomorrow. im sure the name leaks out shortly, you all will be happy i think. I think Santos will get wrapped up now.Time to watch some BB.

:zeitung_lesen: More of the same.....I'll believe it when its actually announced.

If it is over, and the hire is solid, then:

:clapping::good!::dance2::rock::loco:
 
Waking up this morning it does worry me some that nothing (outside of here) has leaked that this is really true. I trust skeeter but stuff changes.
 
I was thinking the same thing. Just got on here hoping to see a "Breaking" thread, and everything is the same as last night...
 
He'll name someone at that press conference today. It's going to be Sunseri. I have no thoughts on the hire one way or the other.
