Hyatt, in a Kiffin offense...... SO MUCH FUN!!!!!!

 

[snowvols]

White hired Leipold at Buffalo and Heupel at UCF.

Frost too

 

[Jimmy Football]

Can’t like because Woken.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

How many more photos do you have from your trip out west. I think we all need one.

I need another trip...

What is wrong with him reading message boards?If he wants to share that kind of information on his show to maybe some people who don’t read message boards then what is wrong with that?

The problem is that he comes in saying "i'm hearing now" like he's just breaking the news. Danny white was the guy an hour ago on this board and others.

FWIW I think we will like the AD hire a lot more than the HC hire.

This is why I refuse to get excited until I see who the HC is behind the podium.

 

[nicksjuzunk]

That gives me the sads thinking of him playing at UGA or Bama lining up against Tennessee

Guess that’s what he means by is not goodbye

 

[HawkVol2213]

Fantastic hire

 

[TheMookieMonster]

I was expecting more praise from the national media about this AD hire, but it seems their initial impression is lukewarm.

What the hell am I talking about, I knew they'd poo poo this hire no matter who it was. They hate us.

 

[Captain Mitch]

Hiring Kiffin would be a nice redemption story...

 

[90 Vol]

Hubbs said they aren’t hiring kiffin

Hubbs thinks they aren't hiring Kiffin. I would wager that he doesn't know jack sh!t. It's comical that these guys present their opinions as if was fact.

 

[jp1]

Alright, time for me to play dream crusher. Our excitement about White is making this pretty obvious.

 

[Gilbert]

Bring me Kiffin now.

 

[Leeleesteeth]

And it took about two minutes for some to find the cloud inside the silver lining. Some folks just love being miserable.

[eVOLve]

White and motherfuqqin KIFFIN!

LETSSSSSS FREAKIN GOOOOO!

 

[HoleInTheRoof]

We can either hire Lane...

Or not hire Lane and watch him poach the best talent from Memphis every year. Probably the best skill position guys throughout the state as well.

 

[butchna]

You guys do realize it would be totally Tennessee to nail the AD hire and totally flop on the coach hire, right?

Those two realities can’t coexist. That’s WHY you hire the AD.

 

[Dudleys87]

What do you have against Jay? I mean, other than his initials?

I don’t think he’s a very good coach. Can he bring talent to Tennessee sure but I didn’t see any of his talent develop.

Gray relied heavily on natural ability.
Watch Chandler take the next step and run for 1k next season at Carolina.

Like everything, you're missing basically everything.

He's been the UCF AD since 2015 Dawkins is the first basketball coach to take them to the NCAA in 15+ years, and the first to win 24 games in 15+ years as well.
He hired Frost & Heupel and UCF had 3 straight 10 win seasons, first time in school history.

At Buffalo he hired Hurley & Oats, and those 2 coaches took Buffalo to the NCAA 4 of their 6 seasons there (also the only appearances for Buffalo in the NCAA tournament).
In football there he made the Leipold hire, who in his 4th season won 10 games for the first time in school history and has gone to 3 straight bowls now.

Thanks! This actually answers my question. I also watched some interviews with him. In one in particular, he talked about the need for innovation and constant change within his athletic department. That’s good news for us.

[I4Jay]

It would make me feel better about the prospects of a great HC hire...but..

True.
Very true.

 

[windrider]

You guys do realize it would be totally Tennessee to nail the AD hire and totally flop on the coach hire, right?

I think there's a new sheriff in town.

 

[BigOrangeFanatic]

Some of you guys still think we’re going to give the keys to Kevin Steele??

There's still plenty of time for it to all be screwed up. We've been down this road before.

Hopefully we turn around this time.
