Coming after Vitello

[Gilbert]

"Attention should turn to Jim Schlossnagle and Tony Vitello. Schlossnagle's success at TCU has been well documented. Hiring Vitello would be like hiring a Lincoln Riley-type at Oklahoma. He's hard-nosed and very energetic. I would not expect the coaching search to get past those two names. I would be shocked if it weren't one of those two."

-Kendall Rogers on radio today

We have to pay Vitello

I am afraid the timing is right for him to leave , Texas A & M firing their coach , transfer portal and UT’s success and facilities ... be extremely hard to keep him. They will pour the money to him!!

Kendall literally changes his tune like the wind changes direction. Earlier this week on WNML he said it would be really hard to poach TV from Tennessee. So, which is it? It's really hard to poach him, or he'd be shocked if it wasn't him?

Paul Mainieri supposedly retiring today too. Things are getting real.

I'm trying to stay positive. But, it's going to be an anxiety-inducing next 4-6 weeks.

Same. Enjoying this team and hopefully a run to Omaha, but I’d be lying if this isn’t in the back of my mind.

Yeah. I am just trying to have faith. But, I will never support Danny White if he let's TV out of his grasp. Not after his snobby remarks about the fanbase.

Kendall Rogers just confirmed this.

LSU is supposedly targeting Florida's coach first.

Danny White will not be here very long if he lets TV walk.

He bungled the football hire and this would be the second strike.

Woodward typically goes for the big fish first, like Jimbo Fisher, and most recently Kim Mulkey. I'm not surprised O'Sullivan is his first target.

Buckle up.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

You hear that Danny? He WANTS to be in Knoxville. Commit to the baseball program. Now!

Run ruled! Revenge is mine

BALLGAME! This was fun!

Coach Buzz: LSU's Mainieri Announces Retirement; Candidate Hot Board • D1Baseball

Anyone pay for a sub? I'm sure Vitello is on here. I'm just curious how far down the list he is.

I have a sub.

O'Sullivan is the top candidate
Cliff Godwin, East Carolina
Jim Schlossnagle, TCU
Tony Vitello, Tennessee
Link Jarrett, Notre Dame

 

[TheMookieMonster]

I hope they snag O'Sullivan.

I'd be far less worried about TV bolting for UF than LSU/TAMU.

I’d rather it be Godwin just in case.

I feel like LSU will take who they want, and I doubt Godwin is their #1. Hopefully he is!

He didn’t bungle football. He went for it, but we were not in the position to hire a big coach. Big time coaches don’t leave much anymore because everyone has money.

Yes, I hope they get O'Sullivan too.

I'm not worried about UF.

Surely, to goodness White knew this was coming. It's not out of left field. Maneri's retirement was rumored for awhile.

He and Tennessee's big boosters better get their ducks in a row quickly.

He bungled it and the boosters don't trust him anymore as a result. He's probably safe as long as Plowman is around. But if something happens to her...
