Bama is the one team that I guarantee will get whoever they want when Saban is done. Whoever the top coach is at that time, they will back up the money truck and hand him the keys to the kingdom.
Id love to whip them but if they are the reason coaches dont want to come here (remains to be seen of course) then I dont want to hold out hope for some future day when the tables turn. Id rather fix things now by just ditching the series and plan on meeting them every year in the SEC title game, which we would do most years with Arkansas as our rival.
Sorry but to be a top notch football program, we've gotta find a coach that can manage players like Jennings. He's not some anomoly or horrible person. He's a college football player with some issues. Lots of great players have them. They don't have to be angels. But you have to have a coach that can keep players like that engaged and in the program. The goal is to build the best football team, not the best Sunday school class.
Egos are a part of it. Maybe Jennings was too far gone. Sounds like that's possible. But he's also the kind of player that would have died on the field for the Vols to help us win. It's a shame to see a guy like that tossed aside to me.
I didnt need his opinion to figure that out.
That quote from Hubbs is very weird. I would think a coach would choose his own staff. We must have a coach.
