Tennessee Coach...

[engie]

Now Kevin Sumlin has declined interest in the position per Gottleib and others. How is that even possible?

I really do not know where this all ends. If they were smart, they would offer Petrino the same $7mil they offered Gundy and roll.

This really might end with Brady Hoke taking the job.

Sumlin may need a break from crazy SEC fan bases.

Is Tee Martin that bad? Why don't they offer the guy?

They think they are too good for him obviously. And if I were him, I would tell them to pound sand at this point unless they were offering totally stupid money.

Coaches are boycotting because of the Schiano witch hunt maybe?

 

[Msubulldogfan1]

Rumor is Peyton doesn’t want him. It’s obvious theirs too many chiefs in the UT administration. They all think they’re smarter than each other.

Instead of doing what we did with Cohen and Dr. Keenum, letting and trusting them to do their job, their big money guys are running the show...not knowing what the hell theyre doing.

Most unprofessional **** show coaching search ever.

They’re gonna end up with fat Phil

Think some coaches are sending a message on behalf of one of their own.

Looks like Leach was interviewed today also. Hope he gets it.

I enjoy his interviews and we need UT to be strong to kick Dans ***.

They have zero leadership, like others basically have said. That AD of theirs has turned it into a complete trash program. After he gets whoever they come up with he will need to be replaced.

They all are gun shy after that public execution of Schiano. Some might be denying the job because they feel bad for Schiano, but I think most are just scared of that certifiably insane fan base. It isn't worth the money to deal with that crap.

It was disfinctional before Currie. That was made obvious by them hiring Currie over Fulmer and the AD at UTC. Was a supremely idiotic move and spoke volumes.

It’s being reported that Leach will be announced tomorrow. This should be really 17ing fun to watch.

I really don't get the Tee Martin hype. I know he's OC at Southern Cal. But I watched their game with UCLA and wasn't that impressed with their offense. Their QB led the P5 conferences in turnovers last year and is near the top again this year. All they do it out-talent a bunch of bad defenses.

no one knows details but one of oliva's spawn has a problem with T. Maybe its T's natty ring that little awwchee doesnt have

I’m curious how they didn’t get to Leach earlier.

See above posts about leadership and administration.

What in the hell makes you think Petrino would take it when they're getting turned down by Cutcliffe, Dave Clawson, Jeff Brohm, Doeren, and Sumlin?

Lack of job security in current situation. And practically no buyout.

 

[Coors Dog]

Twitter is heavy on reporting Leach now

They are probably concerned about being drug through the mud because of what they did to Schiano.

Is Petrino on the hot seat? And for the record, his buyout is $4.25 million.

Coaching searches involving the Mannings always seem to turn out well. /FAAAAAAAART.

They haven’t offered a single coordinator. Not one. 8 or 9 guys deep and you think they’d start to take a look at up and coming assistants as opposed to complete retreads that already have been fired within the last week.
