It would be wild if UT hired Mike Leach

The funniest thing is seeing all these Vol fans this morning get upset because the best they could do was Dave Doeren and then he turns them down too. This may be the best coaching search ever because they did all this **** to themselves after they had a good coach already on board.

One of the better fan quotes I've seen on the SEC board ..

I wonder if Vols fans realize that, in dodging the bullet, they essentially dove off a bridge.

Ha. More like they dodged a softball by diving off a bridge. Hmm, maybe I should've just stolen that guy's line.

A coaching swap between FSU and Texas A&M might be in play

I think Greg Schiano would have been another Butch Jones at Tennessee and so would have Dave Doeren

Only Schiano has proven he can build a team from the ground up and not walk onto a roster with Antonio Brown.

This stuff can get into such a cycle that it gets radioactive and no established coach is going to want to touch it at any price. They might be forced to go down low to an unproven up and comer or promote an assistant internally for a year. But you know, that's what 5 coaches in 11 years will do to you. Butch Jones was calling recruits telling them to go elsewhere. Tennessee fans were calling recruits telling them about Schiano. If that type of environment is not radioactive, I don't know what is. They've had a top 10 recruiting class for several years and can't do anything with it.

I think if I were Tennessee I would call Les Miles because I've read that he's eager to coach again

Mike Houston of James Madison would be the guy if Tennessee has to do that

You have to wonder if LSU is going nuts right now for having such a large buyout on Orgeron. I'm sure they would be all over Jimbo if they could.

FSU is about to force Jimbo to make a decision because they're tired of being jerked around

Jimbo has already made his decision. There is no reason to allow that smoke to keep building if there is actually no fire. Jimbo could have come out a week ago and said he isn't going to Texas A&M.

Clay Travis said Jimmy Haslem called the Politicians who protested the hiring of Greg Schiano and told them "You don't make the hires we do(The Haslems)!" That is the problem with the Tennessee Athletic Department right now!

 

[MikeJackets1967]

Tennessee is talking to former Texas A&M head coach Kevin Sumlin according to College Football Rumor Mill.

When you find yourself stuck with a coach who is good but not good enough, the problem often isn’t him.
It’s infrastructure. It’s history. It’s program support. It’s something other than the head coach. But the head coach is the easiest thing to change, so schools follow the same fruitless road over and over and over again.

If Tennessee can hire Kevin Sumlin there will be dancing in the streets in Knoxvegas

I thank my lucky stars that GT isn't going through the chaos that Tennessee is going through right now!

The sports man on one of the Augusta TV stations tonight said that the Vols are now looking for volunteers to be HC. LOL
