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

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?

Maybe he could join Butch Jones and they could build brick by brick making those championship hearts at 3-10 each year

Too much ego. I’d prefer a Frank Reich, good QB developer, nfl mind, an overall good person. Plus he may want to learn the college game some.

Well, he's so humble, we wouldn't have to worry about his arrogance getting in the way!

He hired Kiffin after Lane started all that crap from our head coach position. Saban will put anyone to work.

Saban realized his drop back passing offense was becoming a dinosaur and wanted to change it up to a more fast paced style and Kiffin was the guy who could install and teach it. Kiffin used it to get his credibility back after the TN-USC disasters to get a HC job. Win for both sides.

No. Jimbo has 76M reasons to not demote himself to get back into coaching. He’ll end up somewhere like Houston now that it’s open.

Other than the fact that he's filthy rich and doesn't need a job; we're not remotely on his radar; there's no connection whatsoever to the current staff; he runs a totally different offensive system; and he's too old to even consider a position like that . . . . What's the problem? lol

He will probably end up at Oregon St or Houston if he doesn't take off a year IMO.

Crunching data and film for another head coach isn't in his DNA at this point. Too arrogant.

If he's got $75 million coming to him, that's a lot of money to pay players to wash his stable of cars. Hopefully have better success than Cornbread

I know if I had millions in the bank, I’d want to come be an insignificant “analyst” coffee boy like Jones did at Bama.

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.
Can you imagine getting paid $12,000 a day as a severance package then decide you want to get another job for $80k/yr at 58 because you love what you do so much? After I'm sure ignoring your whole family for their entire lifetime.

I expect him to be like Mack Brown was after Texas. Just a talking head on pregame shows
I actually think Jimbo would be an excellent t.v. guy. He's quite easy to listen to & knows fooball despite all the problems. Mack Brown & Urban Meyer were also good.
