Wilcox to Texas? (latest rumors say he has offer)

Recruiting to Texas is cake compared to recruiting to Tennessee. Also it is easier to win there in a weaker conference, especially now since Nebraska is gone too.
 
I know Randy Shannon would be a great DC but what would really be the point in going after him? He'd stay for a year and then be gone to HC somewhere. So we would once again lose a DC and the players would have to learn yet another new scheme. Seems kind of pointless.
 
No, Fulmer hired coaches who were not wanted by other schools.

Yeah, nobody ever wanted Rodney Garner or Trooper Taylor or Stan Drayton or Latrell Scott as a recruiter; nobody ever wanted Cutcliffe or Chavis as coordinator; nobody every wanted Brooks or Sanders as a position coach; and Fulmer doesn't have 4 former assistants as head coaches currently. (Ignore for the moment those coaches have easily found jobs at BCS schools or promoted to higher positions at other schools).

Fulmer hired coaches specific to their position -- coordinators for coordinators, position coaches for position coaches, recruiters for recruiters, and player personality managers for their specific role. He was loyal and that loyalty was reciprocated with extraordinary stability. Of course, leave it to the kiddies to twist stability into a "bad" thing.

If you like coaches who leave all the time (and celebrate it as evidence of coaches "desirability" and "superior" talent), then look at Majors' offensive runs from 1977-1988 or his defenses his entire tenure. Guess how many seasons Majors managed top-3rd SEC offenses or defenses during those years? Try zero, with the "great" staff evidenced by how many coaches left all the time.
 
Rumor is Wilcox wants Dooley to replace Chuck Smith with Tosh Lupoi of Cal. If Dooley could get Lupoi and keep Wilcox but elects not to, he will be making a big mistake.

He tried getting lupoi last year and he didn't come. He might be willing to go to Texas though.

i read the article on espn bout muschamp going to florida. Brown said he was going to do a nationwide search for a dc. Is it possible wilcox would jump if offered? He is a young dc who has a good rep. Not a prediction, just a thought. Personally i think they could hire from within the staff or a nfl asst.
please be quiet......
