Fulmers candidates to replace Pruitt

[RDU VOL#14]

Fickell, Freeze or Elko would’ve been great hires. Not that they would’ve come here, but given the opportunity those would’ve been my 3 in no particular order .

Fickell wasn’t interested. The other two were highly gettable imo.

I agree . I don’t think Fickell would take a job that wasn’t in the Midwest. I won’t be surprised to see Elko offered a big job in the near future. Whenever aTm can afford to fire Jimbo they would be smart to contact Elko.

Elko is an amazing coach, and I feel he doesn’t get as much credit as he should. He did a really good job as Duke’s coach last season and is one of the best defensive minds in the game (compare Wake Forest’s defensive performance when Elko was there, to how their defense is now, if you don’t believe me.) I think if A&M fires Jimbo, he’ll be their next coach.

That said: give me Heupel over him any day. Thank god we let Danny handle this search. At least he can spell Alex Grinch correctly.

Can we not have 27000 threads on the ncaa and related stuff. This is boring, then don't read it buddy you say, and rehashing stuff that really isn't interesting. Filler stuff I guess. This is 3rd or 4th maybe 5th thread on this mess that needs to he put to bed. I made a comment in first thread and now hopefully, closing the book here.

The words have been healed. Let not open them up again. Freak, wave your magic wand.

Ha: I very strongly suspect that Fulmer--who, let's recall was the sounding board for former chancellor Davenport on matters athletic---helped to sabotage the Schiano hire--with the help of fans, of course, along with feckless moralists in the state legislature--which in turn sabotaged AD Currie, which Fulmer no doubt knew might help him get the AD job. It did--Davenport hired him--and then Fulmer turned around and hired not only arguably the worst coach in UT history but a guy who broke scores of rules and got us sanctioned pretty seriously by the NCAA. I think that was around the time that the word "cluster-f--k" was first coined!

We used the cluster f term at work in the 80's. It was probably around long before then.

“I am not (at) all advocating a change in football and hope we do not get there with pending issues,” Fulmer wrote. “I do believe we can overcome our challenges, and I have seen signs of progress.”

Coach, I love ya, you gave us the 90s, I know you bleed orange, but -- come on now.

Good Job Plowman read this and said-------"That stupid sob has to go too"

Glad he was replaced with Danny White, because he isn’t 0.00000000000000000000000000000000001% the AD White is.

Says the fan whose football employees are literally killing their players, along with themselves. $8 million is chump change compared to that $40 million coming down the pike at UGA; not to mention what the OTHER football employee, the one who survived, will get.

I know it sounds crazy...but, depending on how ugly that gets down there...if it gets UGLY UGLY, even Kirby won't be able to survive it, imo. It was a terrible tragedy, brought on in a massive way, by someone who was on his staff, with another staffer seriously hurt, as well. What do you all think that girl is going to say about the whole shabangabang, UGA's going on's, not just about the accident, if she has to fight with her lawsuit? I'm not saying this is going to happen...im saying it has the potential to burn that place down.

That would just be tragic. Tragic, I tell you, tragic. I would shed half a tear. After I laughed until I lost my voice and went to every bar in town and bought a round for everybody.
