TOS saying that Clemson released Steele today

[AJeray4TN]

That's more than Monte Kiffin did

Monte Kiffin also kept the BCS champions out of the endzone all day, and was one man boob short of beating them.

 

[tvols75]

Gave up 27 to Wofford

Alabama gave up 21 to Ga. Southern. This is fun.

 

[utmba93]

lol, ok.

I'm afraid we've got more crap coming for not thinking Steele is the answer and not supporting him after Florida puts up 70.

 

[WesternKyVol]

Was it in an Orange Bowl on national television, one week before being considered for another job?

Not to mention Steele's defense was so unbelievably stout this past season--Gave up an average of 30+ pts on the season I believe.

You're right. One game isn't a measuring stick.

29.4 against the ACC juggernaut offenses--and Wofford

They are in the bottom third of the NCAA in defense. I'm really not sure why you would argue for this guy.

I thought he blocked those with his hands, but I'm pretty sure he could have been on his back and used the boobs. So, your point stands.

 

[Catbone]

I'd take Zook over Steele, jmo

 

[1utfbfan]

I also watched Chavis give up 59 to an average UF and 41 to basically one player on a terrible bama team. Things happen so to cherry pick results doesn't work

9 games this season teams scored 27 or more points on Clemson's D, and thats in a weak conference. How many SEC teams do you think we could hang 28 or more points on to win.

Because his track record is pretty good on D, and I don't factor in what looks like an anomaly?

 

[VolinDawgland]

If he doesn't hire_______ I am through with UT

I dont like_________ because he is fat or played for this team or that team

I dont want him if his name isn't_____________

We suck

We are done

Bama won another one, we suck

I think that about covers it.

 

[SeanJean]

Do tell about this track record.

 

[VolinDawgland]

Perhaps he'll be the LB coach to DC Lance Thompson

Tennessee and Dooley are clearly in a good position to ignore facts, and roll the dice hoping this is just an anomaly.

 

[utmba93]

Gave up 27 to Wofford

But did Wofford have a WR playing QB?

That way we could figure out if Steele would be smart enough to put more players in the box. Might get hired by a Pac 12 team, if he's that good.

 

[tvols75]

Do tell about this track record.

Two top 25 defenses his first two years at Clemson. Amazing recruiter. A ton of experience as a positional coach in the NFL and college. And has worked under a ton of great coaches.

 

[1utfbfan]

If we could get him as a LB coach that would be a great hire, not sure he would take a step back to a position coach though

 

[utmba93]

Tennessee and Dooley are clearly in a good position to ignore facts, and roll the dice hoping this is just an anomaly.

I'm thinking he prolly complemented Dooley on his genius whilst they worked together for Saban. Dooley may be the guy whose scout team got Steele demoted. :dunno:

Hopefully, i say we let them have him

 

[Orange Blazer]

I dont have a VQ account but my uncle called just now and said that people are posting that Clemson has released Steele and he's decided to accept the UT job. If someone with an account can verify please let us know.

Weird, I don't see that anywhere on VQ.

Has....has.....has.....been

apologies

 

[tvols75]

Has no one read this? Kevin Steele Tennessee Bound: Clemson Coach To Be Named Vols Defensive Coordinator (POLL)

I bet the Huffington post is going to keep that article up for eternity because of the traffic it has constantly brought them.

 

[SeanJean]

Again, dates are very tricky. If only there was a way to keep track of them.

 

[AllVolYall]

So Tommy Spangler turned Dooley down too? I thought they were friends.

 

[FearlessFreep]

Open note to Derek Dooley:

PLEASE hire a DC soon so people don't keep posting a two-year-old article as fact.

Sad reality: O/U on the number of times it's linked again in the next few days is 13.


............ I'm taking the over.
