Do we hire Jimbo Fisher for a spot on the coaching staff?

[Orange defense]

As an analyst? What spot would you put him as? Help with recruiting? Help with what? Or no, we don’t need him. I would love to bring his experience to Knoxville for something? He is getting paid from A-M all of that money. Surely we could pay him something to help this coaching staff somewhere?

 

[vols 30]

He's 58 years old and has 75 million coming to him. Why work anywhere again?

Or maybe he loves it like Nick Saban does, and still wants to be part of coaching somewhere?

 

[UTwild82]

If he goes anywhere it's the Nick Saban center for coaches who can't coach so good.

Maybe. I bet he does TV if he does anything. Seems like he has the personality for it

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

I don’t want Jimbo Fisher anywhere near our program. His offenses suck.

 

[Special Ed]

Butch Jones could use an assistant.

 

[TNHopeful505]

People close to him say he will be back soon. He has no offsetting language to his buyout so him working doesn't hurt him financially. I just don't know where he would be a good fit at.

Duke should have an opening

Play by play guy?

 

[brentcontractor]

He may take a year off however most coaches are the type that will go crazy or drive everyone else crazy if they have nothing to do.

Right!?! Good luck getting someone to do work when they we’re just paid $75M to not do work

He has the personality of a coked out used cars salesman, I def don’t want to hear his a$$ calling games or in the studio

 

[unfrozencvmanvol]

Pretty sure he has 75 million reasons not to work.

i agree with this take but these guys are wired different. I would be surprised if he isn't on somebodys staff doing something. Don't know that i want him on our staff though..

You’d know if I got that payout because you’d never see me unless you want to come see me at my beach house.

 

[fossilfiction]

No, but they could pluck Mason away from the booth and get him coaching defense, I am game for that.

don't see Heupel bringing in any coach that would try to dictate how he should use HIS offense, That ain't happening IMO

If I had 75 million you couldn’t find my beach house

At times he favors Mike Rowe. I wonder if Jimbo can travel around doing dirty jobs across college campuses.

After the way Jimbo disparaged Saban? I don't think so.

Mike Rowe? Clean you glasses!! Don't insult Mike Rowe like that! Mike Rowe is a Man's Man. JIMBO? Diminutive Motor Mouth.

LMAO If you have any idea about Jimbo's history that makes it even funnier.

 

[SayUWantAreVOLution]

Jimbo might go to Bama in some position.

His story mirrors Saban. He has a Natty and a pretty high profile failure.

Nick retires, Jimbo takes over and doesn't have to worry that failing at Bama will "devastate his career" because he's sitting on generational wealth now.

Because these guys cannot walk away. Watching Golden Girls and collecting sea shells won’t scratch their competitive itch.

With that said.. he isn’t coming here.
