Who do we (UT) hire now??

[crimsonbleeder]

Does anyone think Tubberville is kicking the wall right now? If he'd waited a little longer...UT is a better gig than Lubbock.

yup...that's a funny image. Makes me laugh...a lot.

I'd be willing to bed that Tubberville doesn't want to go back to the SEC. Kiffin learned that its not so easy to win in this conference and realized his mouth couldn't be backed up w/ a national title every year.

Here's to hopin' they don't go after Kirby!

The sad thing is Uthug will probably end up with a better coach, the good out of it is getting to laugh at the lovefest ut had with lame.

 

[Bama1970]

Tony Franklin, Dennis fRanphony, Bill Curry, Sly Croom, Terry Bowden.
I hope whoever they get sucks. I hate ucheat with every fiber of my being.
I wish they'd never win another game.

Yep, had that thought. Oh well, Lubbock is such a lovely town compared to Knoxville...:biggrin:

(note: totally joking here...)

Seems UT had this very same dilemma about a year ago, and the best you could do was to hire "The Worm." I LOVE IT, especially for all those blind sheep who defended him day in and day out. And GOOD TIMING, TOO!! How many weeks til NSD?

 

[selmaborntidefan]

Dennis Franchione is available. Talk about adding fuel to the rivalry fire.

 

[GrayTide]

I do agree that Kiffin's leaving will, in the long run, be a positive for UT. Gary Patterson would be my first phone call, Kyle Whittingham at Utah, Skip Holtz, Al Golden at Temple and Randy Edsal at UConn.

 

[Saban14]

Skip Holtz, Gary Patterson, Will Muschamp (unlikely), Bobby Petrino, or even Houston Nutt.

No way Harbaugh goes from Stanford to UT. Patterson would be tricky with his new contract. I wouldn't touch Leach with a 10 ft. pole after the incident and his wild offense (he's lost several straight to SEC teams I think too). Gruden is a pipe dream, forget it. Honestly, don't be surprised to see Nutt or Petrino's name to come up IMO.

You know...Kim loves Knoxville this time of year.

Wonder how long it will take the barners to put up eleventy billion 'Saban to UT' threads?

 

[Bad Pony]

Try Bobby Petrino he always takes calls.

:biggrin:

I am sure you will see them. I don't think Hamilton would be willing to hand out the cash. I think if he came to UT, we would have to pay him $8 million or so....at least $6.5 million.

 

[im4datide]

Shoulda gone after Brian Kelly when they had the chance! :biggrin:

 

[ABamaManNTX]

I'd go after a NFL coach or UConn's Coach "Edsall) or the coach at Rutgers. Stever Spurrier is from Tennessee. He may be able to win at UTn.

Mississippi State's coach would be another name I'd throw out.

Leach could bring his entire staff from TT. I'm sure the "Nutt" would be interested!

The above, just to name a few.

I'm sure Bama would $match$ that, if we need to!

 

[ABamaManNTX]

I also don't want anyone saying in a few years that he won the NC at 3 SEC schools.

 

[gbrad]

Rich Rodriguez might listen. I thought about Tuberville wishing he would have held out but who knows with the way things go in coaching circles, it could be announced tomorrow that tuberville is heading to UT.

Skip Holtz or the UConn guy would be good options. At least the UConn guy has proven he can beat Spurrier.

I hope UT goes after Gus Malzahn myself to stir up two of our rivals. Just when I thought the season was as exciting as it gets...

 

[dWarriors88]

Volnation is crashed.

 

[Tigerhater06]

Hire Lance Thompson and maybe he can bring in Gus Malzahn as his OC. I wonder how all the 10rc recruits feel now? I bet Juwan James and Blake Sims are feeling all warm inside.
