Josh Heupel emerges (old thread)

[etsuvol13]

Why? Your posts yesterday were as dumb as the ones we have seen today.

“The ink is not on the contract, but Josh Heupel is emerging as the guy with the best shot at this job.” — Austin Price

Low just confirmed...it’s him.

 

[ChiefTKE]

Meh. Was hoping for better, but that was probably unrealistic with our situation. That being said, I will be in his corner to start and support in any way I can.

 

[OldLofter]

Let’s get behind him. And if you have a complaint, text it to your buddies.

I wanted the second coming of General Neyland, but coming back to the real world this might be the best we can do...given the crappy cards we’ve been dealt. I’ll support him and the University as best that I can, perhaps this will be a diamond in the rough...we shall see. GBO!

First priority for Heupel: close the loop on the old Heisman race by canning Weinke.

Has won 78% of his games at UCF and runs a high powered offense. One thing is for sure, I bet we don’t struggle to score 20 points. Our wide receivers should be licking their chops at this hire.

Really good hire considering the circumstances.

 

[tennesseeduke]

He checks the box on getting worse where he was coaching over 3 years as well.

Me too but didn’t happen

 

[tennesseeduke]

He’s not a great recruiter. At least not according to UCF fans.

Doesn’t need to be. Needs to be the head coach. We have and will hire great recruiters

 

[tennesseeduke]

28-8
Offense rank 5th, 6th, 2nd

I like the hire
also puts Chaney ass on the road hopefully!

Wonder what players he brings with him from UCF through portal?

Why? Mom I didn’t get my way! How is VN any different than the boosters the are all the time bitched about?

Bruh, we need to get this kid on a nutrition regimen.

WOW.

I never expected to get my way but I really did expect something bigger, better for $18.8 million being spent.

I still think Fulmer could have pulled off a Heupel like hire.

Brandon Johnson coming back.......jk. Would have loved to see Milton come here but that ship sailed. I'm excited to see what Heupel could do with Salter, Bailey, Hooker and the WR's Wideman, Hyatt, Beckwith. He is going to have some talented players here to build around but they are young. Will definitely need to be scouring the transfer portal for some bodies.

Makes sense that the new AD would turn to someone he has a history with after striking out with the bigger fish.

And you know this how?

 

[Perspective]

Not a great hire. Better hire than Pruitt.

Could be a good coach here. Should be much better than Pruitt.


More disappointment in how lowly Tennessee is thought of than in how low of chance Heupel has compared to other candidates. He’s a above Elliott. Coordinators living off the silver spoon are complete unknowns

wiki already has him listed as coach. so it's a done deal.

Okay. We could have done much worse.
He may do well.

 

[rocytop2624]

I sure hope White reached out to Kiffin.

 

[Voltroy]

Guys, it's Heupel. Guess it's better than Sonny Dykes

Good offensive guy, young fiery maybe be ok

 

[BLUTickbusdriver]

His offense was number 2 in the country....our offense was 102...this will be a huge upgrade on O!

 

[BalledUPfists]

Well, it’s better than Pruitt......
