Let's get some ORANGE back on the sidelines for the Vols.

HC: Sparky Woods

OC: Randy Sanders

QB: Bo Hardegree

RB: Jay Graham

WR/TE's: Tee Martin

DC: Tommy West

DL: Bill Duff

LB: Dale Jones

DB: Mikki Allen

ST: Bill Bates

Duff and Bates may not be hosting MNF, but they at least have the tv time to draw recruits.

Woods is the proven winner this program needs.

The most successful HC we can afford.....whomever that may be. Chaney can stay as OC, but, the DC HAS to be, like the HC, the most successful DC we can afford and not a mediocre linebacker coach, whom we would be promoting.

Greg Roman - HC
Kippy Brown Asst HC/OC
Jay Graham - RB
Tony Oden - DC
Sal Sunseri LB

Also for anyone thinking Bumpas wants to come here if Gary Patterson goes to Arkansas just look where he is from and his alma mater. Secondly, the guy does not really go out and recruit. He is similar in recruiting style only, to Monte Kiffin. He will have recruits come to him and see his style. Very difficult for us to be down one guy.

I stopped believing you after Steele was mentioned for DC. Do you not know what happened at Clemson?

HC - Mike Leach
DC - Leonard Little
OC- Stallworth

This combination gives us the best chance of intimidating the opponents both on and off the field. The opponents might even be afraid to get on the road, or run into leach in the locker rooms....thoughts?

Boooooo!

Honestly I don't see even Smart keeping Sunseri on as DC if he happened to be hired. He proved he is not a DC this season.

Ok, saying all the money in the world was a bit of an exaggeration. If we are willing to spend a billion dollars on a coordinator though, I think we would end up with a bigger name head coach than Strong.

Spurrier? That makes for a pretty interesting question...

What about this option: HC James Franklin! With the $ we`d save he could hire an all star staff. He`d recruit lights out! He has Vandy at 4-3 in SEC! VANDY!!! He`s proven he can recruit kids to come to Vandy,imagine what he could bring to UT! After he embarrases us this Sat,I hope we give him a spot on the possibles list. Go Vols!

The problem with a James Franklin is how exactly does the man walk into a recruits living room and tell him, "I know I said all those things about Tennessee but you need to forget that....Vandy is the devil"!

Come on. There are alot better options than Franklin. I am also not so sure we would save money. He is already paid better than Dooley. If he were to leave Vandy, I think he would be looking at another 750 grand to 1 million in salary. Alot of good coaches out there in the 3 million dollar range IMO.

agree that no one could possibly want him, but was thinking that it could be forced depending on hart and what the money situation really is.

shoot, if the money is bad enough next year we could see

HC dooley
