Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[crazyguy]

Kiffin is out but not because of this. This dude is making **** up. Kiffin is out because tennesse does tennessee stuff.

Kiffin is out because he's not the best candidate out there and has already left us at the altar once.

 

[Mike4Vols]

Danny Dub would be travelling to see him if this was real, not the other way around.

I would think so too. But who knows. Just telling you what I heard.

 

[Mike4Vols]

So Herman is in the C pool of candidates?

Not Herman. The other Texas coach.

 

[Deebowbear]

Didn't the plane go to Charlotte this morning? And now Feldman is mentioning Healy? Probably who they're interviewing right now if that puzzle fits together.

Maybe for OC

 

[head1]

We won’t have a coach until Neyland Rising catches up.

Texas tech?

 

[BigOrangeGoose]

BOOM
Are you AV's alternate account?

 

[Newman]

Texas tech?

Dykes at SMU

 

[Ten_Titans]

Not Herman. The other Texas coach.

Charlie Strong it is. Let's ride.

 

[Nuctech777]

Real Madrid's probably going to fire their manager (Zinedine Zidane) who just won the Champions League title 3 times in a row. Not to mention, he is also a club legend from his playing days.

The headbutt guy?

 

[Type Orange+]

What's the point if you're not going to tell us?

That's what I thought.
Why even mention it.

 

[Volsfaninva917]

Well, I would prefer to hire a HC that would not be overwhelmed by a place like UT, but the list of those that are willing to make that move a week from NSD is pretty slim.

Beyond that, I think that no matter who we hire, the next couple of years may be rocky. And no matter who we hire, we will have to continue to cheat at some point.

Finally, I would argue that the mess we have is what it is no matter who is in charge. I don’t think the NCAA stuff is going to be resolved any time soon. I think DW has a plan for how to deal with it. I think we have some talent on the roster. I think our QB room may be the best it has been in a long time. Do we have gaps? Sure. But I think that there are a lot of coaches that could come in and get us moving in the right direction pretty quickly. I am not convinced that a G5 coach is any better prepared for that than a top level coordinator.

it is actually pretty rare for a G5 coach to go to a top program and succeed. Who is the last G5 coach to really hit it big at a power school?

Probably BK at ND

But this place is different than other jobs, it will chew you up and spit you out. I don't think Elliott and a few others mentioned are cut out for it.

Didn’t know that about Pulisic liking him, that’s good. I haven’t had time today to look more in depth about the way Tuchel likes to play, but just from his experience at PSG I’m excited. I also know that Silva is happy about being reconnected to his former manager.

Just have to gain some confidence back and see what Tuchel can install before next months return to Champions League.

Was his coach at BVB wasn’t he?

 

[tvolsfan]

The headbutt guy?

Yes

 

[itsme]

Campbell dream is over.

It ain’t over until a new head coach is announced at Tennessee. They know the same thing we do. Nothing.

 

[daugag02]

Not sure if I believe you. Tell us who you saw at least? Hell, post a video to prove you were there. Anyone could google and find a picture.

 

[Nash_Vol97]

It's because they've spent like 200 or 300 million on players in that timeframe and it's still not working. Chelsea in particular go through managers like crazy.

Yup. Love Lampard as a player, but as a coach he isnt going to cut it there. Too much firepower invested in Werner, Havertz, Silva, etc to not be more competitive.

 

[Volsfaninva917]

Sweeping generalization and it implies that coordinators never go on to become successful HC (spoiler: it happens every year).

Pruitt and TE could not be more different from background to pedigree

Again, with the current climate here at UT with our recent troubles this is not the place for someone to learn on the job. Especially someone from a program that would be considered "being born with a silver spoon" for lack of better words.

 

[Leeleesteeth]

Not Herman. The other Texas coach.

Not the guy whose name is synonymous with multiple lesbians?

 

[jave36]

Charlie Strong it is. Let's ride.

I'd get behind that. He got a raw deal at Texas, I think he's better than that record suggests. Not my top choice by any means, but solid.

 

[DustyRockSolid]

Not Herman. The other Texas coach.

There's like 9 guys that coach teams in texas. Tech, a&m, tcu and more I'm sure.

 

[5FingerVolPunch]

LMAO. Well he ain't lying about being there.

 

[tvolsfan]

Dykes at SMU

Well if that's the case, we can go ahead and start talking about our 2025 coaching search.

 

[InstrumentalVol]

For the record I think that guy might actually be outside the search firm, it looks similar to the building on Google Streetview. Pretty pathetic if he is making up stuff about a candidate's wife though.
