Jimbo Fisher

[VolsZealot]

I asked this in another thread but ill ask you here. Not trying to flame, just looking for some discussion. In your opinion do you think UT will be an 11-1 10-2 type of team with Fisher or do you think they will be an 8-4 or 9-3 type of team?

Honestly its hard to say even with Gruden it would be a gamble.. You just dont know. I think he could be a 10-2 type.. Not right away of course but I would think in 3 years we could be there. If he can bring good defenses and keep most of the offensive talent we have .. We could have a vast improvement next year over this year

Now that Gruden is out of the picture, Jimbo is number one for Hart. 1b is Golden and 1c is Gundy. I don't get it with Golden, and not a huge fan of Gundy. Butch Davis is after these guys, but I like him better than b and c. ACC championship tomorrow so we should know about Jimbo soon. He is Harts guy, has been for a long time. He made him the coach in waiting at fsu.

Plus he lost his Stoops to UK and Eddie Gran is being considered for job as well.

I don't know if this is any info you all don't know already. Just thought I would post what I was told per Sexton as of Sunday. He told me and my dad Sunday he was 95% sure Jimbo would be our next coach. This was even in the midst of all the Gruden talk. Haven't spoken to him since then, but just thought I would pass this along.

So I don't understand everyone's thought process, we just had Dooley for 3 years and at this point everyone agrees we was a waste. Then everyone gets all excited about Gruden and we can all understand why would be a great hire on nothing else but name alone. He turned us down now people are saying Jimbo Fisher and everyone acts like he would be the worst hire known to man he recruits well and as long as we don't play Wake Forest we will be fine IMO thoughts?

nope acc is entirely different from the sec. end of thread. thanks for playing.

 

[gator haters]

Ok so take a coach who can recruit that we'll for the ACC imagine how we'll he can do here since he knows Florida well and more kids want to play in the SEC then ACC

so only people who have been successful in the sec can be successful in the sec?

Fisher would be a huge improvement over what we have had. Only lost 1 game, even if it was to a team Dooley beat.

Its not worth it man, he has no clue just wants to be a smart azz like most people on this board.

Strong Strong and Strong....

Watch Auburn get him while Hart has his finger up his A$$

 

[keckjm]

Ill take Fisher all day over Golden or Strong.

You're right. Did FSU beat any Top 25 teams this year?

Strong, Fisher or Franklin. I honestly wouldnt be disappointed with either.

 

[lovavol]

don't think he comes here, rather have patterson, but in the end this hire will make or break hart

Only #10 Clemson

Yep those 7 seasons of SEC experience, multiple SEC west & SEC championships, including 1 national championship team don't matter at all.

Patterson is a dream. More so then Gruden was. Strong, Golden, Fedora, or Fisher will be your next coach at UT IMO.

Exactly, why would we want a coach with good connections and past recruiting success in Florida, Louisiana, and Texas? I'll take Jimbo any day of the week over Golden, Petrino, Fedora, Davis, Jones, etc. Besides, how would someone named Jimbo not do well in the SEC?

Do you know how ignorant you sound?

 

[lamar_cmpbll]

we need a coach who actually believes in running the ball ... and not out of shotgun!

 

[1985Vols]

Strong, Fisher or Franklin. I honestly wouldnt be disappointed with either.

Franklin has NEVER beaten a team with a winning record. I'm done if Hart hires that bozo!!

 

[lexkyvol]

Me really wants Petrino. so what, give him 2 or 3 randoms to pound on and let him do his thing

You do know that he has been at both Auburn and LSU, right?
