Your AD will go after anybody who is considered damaged goods by the NCAA or somebody with a shady past. I seriously doubt that he will go after a coach who has had a show-cause placed on them or somebody who has stepped down or been fired from their job. With that being said, I highly doubt that you will see Tressel, Butch Davis, Petrino, etc. on your sidelines. JMO
I think that it is just as important for UT to restore their name and reputation as it is to improve in the win/loss column.
I have been there as a Kentucky fan anxiously waiting to see who our new coach would be. I think sometimes we can't see the forest for the trees and these are times when that happens. We fixate ourselves on people who will more than likely not come, expecting instant success when they aren't even guaranteed that considering nobody knows how their past is going to effect their future.
That being said, don't just look for somebody who is going to simply win alone. Look for somebody who can lay out a blueprint for success and someone who is going to put UT back into the place that when Tennessee is mentioned- people respond to it with respect.
