I think I like not using a firm. You see what a search firm did for us with Kiffin and Dooley. I thank Dooley for helping to stabilize the program. I just dont think hes a good coach in the sec.

"We want a coach who knows how to be successful and who has had success!"

"We want someone with integrity. We have no margin for error. We need a culture of compliance. The profile is one that you will expect it to be. Some we will approach, will want to finish their season."

"We are not late. I have done this many times."

"I have never been involved in the hiring of an assistant coach. You hire who you want, but you then need to be accountable for your hire."

No search firm, tells me that they are talking to some folks. I think this gets done quickly. If we don't see somebody take the job in the next couple of weeks, and Hart names a search firm, then the program could be in trouble as far as getting a "home run".

Stop talking about UT's "competitive disadvantages," Hart. This is the time to paint a positive picture of the university and the football program--not to scare off potential coaches.

"I have friends in this profession, who I trust and I will talk to. I will reach out to a few people in that nature."

"I wanted to give Derek Dooley and his staff to every opportunity to reach some goals. During the month of October, we were close to doing that."

"I never told Dooley were going in a different direction until this morning."

I am not worried if we don't announce in the next couple of weeks. That tells me we are after a current coach at a school going to a bowl.

Does the lack of a search firm indicate that there is a very short list of candidates already?

I think it indicates how incompetent Hamilton was that he needed a search firm to find out who were good football coaches.

WTF is Hart talking about with his references to "historical" problems. What was his point about "academic disadvantages." I don't get that AT ALL.
