OT: All Purpose NCAA Football Thread Part III

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

If you are even close to a high profile coach why would you go to Tennessee? A bunch of morons just dictated to the AD who they didn’t want.
Bunch of goddamn clowns believing hearsay

Internet surely changes things but Tennessee’s coaching search has to be the worst of all time.

I haven't seen any compelling arguments anywhere as to why Schiano would have been a good hire
let alone choice #1 for a school like Tennessee

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

They’re on choice #10-11 at this point. Jeff Brohm who coaches Purdue is the latest to say no thanks.

Erik Ainge (former Tennesse QB) is melting down on twitter & it’s great. Buddy even got trolled by Kiffin on there.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Tennessee is off the hook. Arizona State just claimed the worst hire of the cycle.

 

[JojoTheWhale]

Someone gave Herm a job?! Well at least we get press conferences out of it.

Schiano isn't a great hire, but Tennessee isn't a great job anymore either. Insane fanbase and group of high profile boosters that haven't come to grips with the fact that the late 90's are gone and not likely coming back. They just don't have the same recruiting pull with Alabama, Clemson, Georgia, and Auburn currently dominating the region.

Butch got legit kids there. He just didn’t develop them. So I still think it’s a good job. I just think their administration & then fans totally bungled this search. Their coaching hires just have been horrendous since Fulmer. I don’t really see them bucking the trend here either as it’s looking like Dave Doeren or Tee Martin are the likely candidates at this point (speculation that the former is using them to get a new deal out of NC State).

Chip Vs. Herm.

Can’t wait.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Kiffin has just been teeing off on Tennessee on his twitter account.

 

[FLYguy3911]

Bad timing for that tweet.

Meh, development was a problem, but Jones' classes, outside of 2015, were highly ranked because he recruited 30 kids a year.

Numbers still help though. But you have to be willing to run your program like that. All coaches process kids to some degree but he obviously was doing it on par with Alabama & Ohio State without their success.

I do think once Saban retires things will more so normalize in the SEC & more parity will come of it.

The FSU site on 247 is saying Jimbo is gone to A&M. An official statement could come some time today.
