[jakez4ut]

This tells me AD was being vetted already & this week has basically been interviews.

tells me the list was short.

 

[pierce60]

Kirby Hocutt?

Texas Tech. Well respected and I think would be a really good hire.

 

[Ron Swanson]

Plowman and Boyd ain’t playing around

Bout Fn time

 

[volfaninpa]

Kirby Hocutt timeline: I do believe he would have been at OU when Stoops came and won a title and competed for another.
Just saying...

If it’s white we’re at least committed to spending big on a new AD, which is good to see.

 

[TheTimeIsNow]

Danny White incoming

 

[itsme]

Chadwell is still my pick, but Mayo is going to be an NFL head coach within the next 5 years. Strike early and get a guy to change the culture here.

I could be on board with this.

 

[jakez4ut]

Basilio scoffed at us talking about the AD rumors in his chat then he called someone to confirm it was true

but i've hears lately how plugged in he is?

lulz.

 

[butchna]

same. white is intriguing. won't be mad if it's him.

Like him a lot better than a day ago...when I didn’t know who he was. Hocutt would classify as a homerun with his resume...and I prefer White.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

100% disagree. Florida and Georgia do not scare me at all. If we hired Matt Campbell, we would have the best coach in the SEC not named Saban. In three years, we would be beating Florida and Georgia.

If they hire Campbell I will eat every word I have said in anger towards them....but they won't so..

 

[UTProf]

This article, written Tuesday, has some insight. Not my opinions, but wanted to share, because it seemed relevant.

The main reason Lane Kiffin won't be Tennessee's next head coach

Peyton needs to remove himself then. This hire has to be about the university of Tennessee and Tennessee only. It absolutely cannot be about how it might hurt your brother or dad’s alma mater. If Kiffin is the best available candidate then we have to hire Kiffin. If Peyton is half the professional he is made out to be he knows that as well. Besides, OM would turn around and hire Freeze. Half of them want to do that ASAP anyway.

Basilio scoffed at us talking about the AD rumors in his chat then he called someone to confirm it was true

That's exactly what happened. I am in the periscope and chat broke the news citing VQs VolzOwn and he acknowledged the rumor and then went to break and came back confirmed it.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Danny White has a massive buyout for an AD, so maybe that’s where the FU Money is going?

 

[BruinVol]

I’m dreaming of a white Thursday

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Kirby Hocutt?

Yeah. Had no clue how to spell it.

 

[KB5252]

first we're not pregnant....well, at least i'm not. lol.

2nd, agreed.

Lol I really need to start proof reading. Damn autocorrect!

 

[jbuchanan]

but i've hears lately how plugged in he is?

lulz.

People were also talking about Monday's rumors in his Periscope and they turned out true as well.

 

[Souce]

Let's ride?

 

[butchna]

I know it's been posted, but to summarize Danny White's hires (if it's him):

Bobby Hurley
Nate Oats
Scott Frost
Josh Heupel
Lance Leipold

The guy is either A) incredibly lucky or B) knows what the he!! he's doing.

Or C) All of the above (even better)

 

[SLICKYINC]

I’m dreaming of a white Thursday

Racist imo

 

[PolkVol]

If y’all had to choose between White and Ingram who would it be?

White would have the b@lls to hire a Kiffin like coach...Ingram has a history of promoting current staff to HC

 

[DarthVol1]

Also in case folks dont know, but Danny White and Mike White (gators BB coach) are brothers. Florida basketball coach Mike White, brother of UCF AD Danny White, comments on feud between Gators, Knights

 

[jakez4ut]

Like him a lot better than a day ago...when I didn’t know who he was. Hocutt would classify as a homerun with his resume...and I prefer White.

yeah, i didn't exactly conduct a wide ranging search when i came up with m list of 1 either.

 

[KB5252]

100% disagree. Florida and Georgia do not scare me at all. If we hired Matt Campbell, we would have the best coach in the SEC not named Saban. In three years, we would be beating Florida and Georgia.

There are only a handful of coaches that would agree to take over this mess, and that name isn't among them IMO.
