No way in h**l Huepel takes the Oklahoma job, not after how they did him in 2014. And honestly even if he did leave I wouldn’t be worried, now that the ncaa stuff is behind us and we are overall in a much better position than last year we could easily make a splash hire. It won’t come to that but still no need to worry imho

 

[Pridedad]

Even if that is indeed the case, we don't have a staff opening, even for Cut. And I hope we don't have any openings for another couple years at least. Let's just add him as an 'analyst' instead.

@mrMet beat me to this line of rationale.

With cut here that might cause people to think we have a shot at Arch.

We could easily make a splash hire"...? What in the heck are you smoking?

a LOT of anti-depressants lmao

When are we gonna learn, Tennessee doesn't make "splash" hires? We lucked into Heupel.

How a Tennessee Wide Receiver Went From Two-Star to Superstar | Rocky Top Insider

Tillman played at Bishop Gorman...playing in big games, in front of large crowds, and showing out, is nothing new to him. All he needed was someone/coach/qb to get him the ball.

tank?

Jabari smith. Dude looks like a young Tim Duncan.

Oklahoma, fortunately for us, will have to fall down several rungs of their coaching search ladder to get to Heupel.

 

[Pridedad]

Haha. Not a large enough body of work. . .

Some would say the same thing about his year

Even if they get to him, I'm not convinced he leaves. The grass isn't always greener elsewhere.

I actually think LSU might have to fall a few before they land on Riley.

The NCAA stuff is nowhere near behind us....

Who would be above him? Jimbo (not happening) then ….?

 

[SmokinBob]

Good evening folks! Quick question folks. My son, whom is high functioning Autistic, asked to go to the S. Alabama game on Saturday for his birthday, Friday. He has been to a couple games through our down years, but I'm hoping this game will be awesome a night for him, he's ok with the cold. However, noticed it's Salute to Services this weekend an that we could get in free, but was worried about the seating, he would not do upper deck. Y'all think it would be better to just buy tickets or go this route? It would be 3 of us.

siap - maybe this will help.

And the other one is on a banana peel. Lol

Yeah and he would hate to get hit by golf balls too.

 

[Orange Studs]

Nice to have a healthy program in the making once again. Players actually wanting to play for their coach. Imagine that. lol

 

[Tennessee Golfer]

Who would be above him? Jimbo (not happening) then ….?

Meyer, Campbell, Brady

 

[MrVolton]

Campbell, Aranda, Kiffin, Cristobal, Fickell, Napier even Franklin (although I wouldn’t necessarily want him) have all done more with less than Riley. Not that I think Riley is bad, I just think he was handed a really good situation by a really good predecessor, and the only real competition in his conference has been stuck in a rut of historic lows.

 

[engineerVOL]

It’s worse than we thought…. Haha! Someone go icognito and pitch Tebow.

 

[TheRain]

With just a little work, that could be a great jersey.

 

[SugarCC]

We have some pretty fickle fans

The ficklest.

Not sure that's even a word, but...

 

[Weezer]

Seriously, if Riley were to leave OU for LSU, which I don't think happens, and Heupel were to leave UT for OU, which I really don't think happens, then we really would be a dead program.
