Shouldn't Casey still be playing and working out.....such as NFL Europe, Arena League, something like that? Why does he suddenly feel the need to start at the bottom on a crap program's coaching staff?

I hate to say it, but Casey's NFL career was going nowhere. He couldn't make the starting position in the NFLEL. He chipped away at it for a while but you gotta realize it's time to move on when you can't cut it in a developmental league.

well at least it looks like he has his little brother to fall back on for finacal aid (jimmy dont do me wrong).

Pretty smart move id think.
He took what id assume a good place to get his feet wet.

I dont think starting out anywhere in the SEC is a bad job. (except Vandy & KY) Atleast Miss St has an SEC west title in the last 10 years.

I doubt by Casey working at MS, we would lose any interests of Jimmy.
Sure adding Rick on would be great!
But more for the TN program as a whole.
Id love to see Rick back as an assistant to CRS, or something of that nature. He is more coach material as a Sr. captain as anyone else in the nation. IMO

Working at any SEC team is a great job. Dont know how he couldnt get a job with UT but anywheres a good place to start a coaching carreer.

That i know, But for now its a less threat to UT no spooky intentions by Casey. Happy he got out of the game as a player. If that is the case?

Besides that who or what stops him from being promoted? My opinion he does? But in the same hand glad he has a SEC gig.

You dont have thaaat much history, which you guys make it out to be. Remember the days of, "you cant spell citrus without UT?  My point is, UF has just as much, if not more to sell to recruits than UT.

That's just like a Gator fan to think football started in the 90's. There was football before the Citrus Bowl and before Spurrier. UT was winning NC's in the 30's or is that not history enough for you? UT won the SEC champ in 1938, 39 and 40. Florida's first SEC champ was 1991!! You don't understand what you are talking about.

G-Ville:

You're always wanting us to quote you saying stupid things. Thanks for the latest and greatest opportunity.

Leak's freshman year was 2003.

Florida's record in 2002: 8-5, lost to Michigan in the Outback Bowl
2003: 8-5, lost to Iowa in Outback Bowl
2004: 7-5, lost to Miami in Peach Bowl

Perhaps you were referring to the 2001 season, where Florida indeed played in the Orange Bowl, except that was of course the year when Travis Stephens and company ran it right down your throat in the Swamp and kept you out of the Rose Bowl.

Maybe Leak wanted to go to a top notch program that would be dominated by universities in the State of Mississippi . . .

Leak could have started for UT in his second season, either as a sophomore or a redshirt freshman. The reason he is at UF and not UT is mostly due to UT yanking his older brother so early against GA in 2002. UT was by far his top school until after that game. Don't be fooled into thinking he chose UF over UT (because it was a "top" program or he could "start right away"); he chose UF because UT hurt his feelings :shakehead: , and because his dad thinks like a manipulative sports agent, rather than a supportive father.

By the way, I'm glad Leak didn't go to UT. We might never have gotten Erik Ainge. Leak threw 16 TD's his freshman season at UF (a UF record), but Ainge threw 17 TD's while sharing time the first 4 games and then being injured for the last 4 games . . .

And while I'm on such a roll, we (UT fans) don't care about Casey going to MS State for two main reasons:

1) We trust Casey and his family (can't be said of the Leaks)
2) Unlike Florida, we don't worry about losing to MS State

Well anyhow, I am happy for Casey and glad he found a job in football.

Hmm...good luck selling national championships from the 3's to recruits.

as for Neyland--yes, my bad, ya got me on that one :p :banghead:


I still cant see how youre glad you didnt get the leading passer in the SEC, but whatever floats your boat.

And this is pretty low for you Neyland---"2) Unlike Florida, we don't worry about losing to MS State"

I wouldnt exactly say were worried. That was the first game they won in how many years? I dont think any UF fan is worried about MS, but you can live in the shadows and think we tremble at the sight of sly croom, because believe me, we dont.

I don't post much on here, but when I read a comment like UT doesn't have "That much history", it really just makes me laugh. Florida doesn't hold a candlestick to TN's program as a whole.

Tennessee is the Winningest Football Program in America Since General Neyland took over as Head Coach in 1926:

1)Tennessee 617 - 215 - 33



2)Alabama 612 - 228 - 28



3)Oklahoma 601 - 219 - 33



4)Notre Dame 590 - 221 - 24



5)Texas 588 - 252 - 22



6)S.California 585 - 249 – 40



7)Nebraska 585 - 248 - 21



8)Michigan 580 - 214 - 22



9)Ohio State 577- 200 - 28



10)Penn State 563 - 239 - 20


After reading that garbage gator I have to wonder if the next time you speak you actually will do some research. These stats paint the perfect picture of whats TN FOOTBALL is all about.

I must say though congratulations for beginning to win in the 90's. I know it must have been extremely difficult to suffer through all those rough years in the cellar.

If you were a recruit, you would care about whats happening now or recently. Nobody pays attention to wins from 1926. When it comes down to it, UT and UF in recent memory, have about the same amount of national titles, and UF has more SEC titles. Yes, UT has the most wins from 1926, and yes that will get you a long ways with recruits. But guys look at a lot more than wins from '26.

That's exactly why Urban better win 9+ games fast. Otherwise, Florida is going to be considered a has-been.

Yep, Urban will be given some slack the first year or two, but if it gets like the zooker and were not coming close to atlanta...hell be outta g-ville.

Wins from 1926? Are you really kidding me with your comments? This is becoming comical. I didn't remember seeing Florida's name on that list anywhere, but you go right ahead and try to justify some ludicrous statements that you made. I am not saying that TN has more wins from the season of 1926. My point to you is simply that Florida is not even on the same scale as far as the lure of college football. You know it and so do I. I laugh at the thought that a school's history doesn't effect recruiting. I guess trying to rationalize with you is silly because you have no basis for anything you say. TN has 6 national titles, and yes all are viewed as titles by the NCAA. (Just ask I will be happy to type them out for you) How many titles does Florida have? Thought so! Enough already with this ignorant argument with someone who obviously is blinded by stupidity. You just crack me up with the comment that UT's history isn't that much better than Florida's. Bring some facts to the table, and prove that dumb statement.

Oh yeah I believe the overall series is TN 19 FL 15. So we hold the overall record against you as well.

I am finished with you on this, but you really make me laugh if you think that history plays no factor in where a prospective student athlete will go. Now thats funny right there!

As far as recruiting goes pertaining to TN, Fulmer does a great job year in and year out. He has proven to be a great recruiter. Peyton Manning ( Back to Back NFL MVP's ring a bell) Jamal Lewis (Almost shattered the NFL's single season rushing record). I could go on and on, buts its not worth it.

My argument to you was simply to point out that your statement about "TN's history is not that much better than Florida's", was way off, and I believe that I have done so.

GO VOLS!

I never compared UF and UTs history. UT has a better history. thats a fact, but recruits will care about whats recent (about 10 or so years) and UF and UT are on the same scale. Yes winning the most since '26 will help in recruiting, but no1 will ever go to UT based soley on that, which is what you are coming across as saying. But once again, never said UFs history was better. ;)

]You guys make it seem like no sane player would ever pick UF over UT, which simply isnt true. You dont have thaaat much history, which you guys make it out to be. Remember the days of, "you cant spell citrus without UT? My point is, UF has just as much, if not more to sell to recruits than UT.

So what exactly does "You don't have thaaat much history" mean? You can't say we don't have history and throw out all years prior to 1990. That's clear example of "gator speak". UT is one of the most storied programs in the SEC and the nation. UF has only come about in the past 15.​

UTVOLPJ, Thank you for making my point. This gator has just been owned! He must really hate it when he sticks his foot in his mouth!
