The AD was a good hire. That said, he is in Florida and so are his coaches. Easier to recruit in Florida. Plenty of under the radar players there. Look how Frost performed at UCF vs Nebraska.
That said, look at what Tom Allen has done against the Big 10. They were once worse than Vandy. Hard to recruit even basketball guys there at one point. This past season, they were second in Big 10 East and put up 35 against OSU and lost by one TD. No other team put up that many points against OSU. Not even Clemson. And we want to hire Clemson’s OC over him?
Tom Allen has it all. Experienced HC building a much weaker program in much tougher to recruit to area in a Power 5 conference. Proven balance b/w D and O coach. His team had a good D too as they allowed Kiffin to score fewer points than Bama.
This guy is one of the few obvious guys to me. Why I am not hearing this guy’s name more, I have no idea.
UPDATE: The best arguments to this post in OG form that I have read are that Tom is not only originally from Indiana... he is an Indiana Hoosier grad. Also, his buyout is 20+ million. Last he absolutely cannot stand a city full of homosexual homophobes.
