Randy Sanders to Western Carolina

[volfanbill]

That's the rumors I'm hearing from Kentucky friends. Anyone in Kentucky know more about this?

 

[duckman398686]

didn't see that one coming.

 

[volfanbill]

still not finding anything about this anywhere, just from friends. Good for him if he did get the job.

 

[Volsguy12]

happy for him if this turns out to be true

is this for head coach?

 

[Jaytrain5]

A little hard to believe that a guy could get let go, mid-season, as a coordinator...and get a head coaching job 2 years later after only working as a position coach for an average football team.

That said, good for Randy if it's true.

 

[volfanbill]

correct me if i'm wrong, but sanders wasn't let go midseason was he?

He "stepped down" after the South Carolina game in 2005.

I for some reason thought it was at the end of the season that he stepped down. Thanks for the clarification.

I'm pretty sure that Sanders stayed on as QB coach but was relieved of the play calling responsibilities and did not leave until the end of the year.

that's more along the lines of what I thought. I thought after the SC game, all calls went through Fulmer, but Sanders stayed on.

Hubbs said it's Sanders's job for the taking.

That is what happened. You may remember the offense got even worse after that.

the dropoff was a complete shock

Western Carolina has a very peaceful campus.

My next door neighbors daughter attends UK. She says there's been rumors flying around campus since Sunday afternoon. The latest rumor has Randy meeting with them this weekend. Remember it's a rumor........

I love that area, great place to live.

They actually reported this on the local news last night. This is probably a done deal.

It was mentioned in the newspaper here a couple of days ago. Western's program is at rock bottom right now, he could be a hero if he came in and led them to 4 wins next year.
