Recruiting Forum Football Talk XLVII

[kiloVOLt]

IF UT hires Mike Gundy many many people will owe Tennessee fans an apology.

Yes they will Ron. Yes they will.

This. But watch the national media try to argue that Schiano is a better option

 

[snowvols]

At some point OK St is going to get tired of him flirting with every school that comes around and just let him go.

 

[JCP201]

FWIW a poster on VQ that appears to teach HS ball says currie is actually at SMU

Of course he is. Gundy is a smokescreen.

I just don't see Gundy leaving HOME. Even for $8mil. That's a lot of $ but he has been a part of OSU for a long time. I think at first he will be excited about the $ but then would start having second thought. Just don't see it happening.

Bet they don't attempt to get into bidding war if our offer is really 8.4

Does he want to win?

The UT fanbase has adamantium balls at this point.

Ya mean I got TWO o' these!!!

Possible. I just don’t see this ending with him on a plane back to Knoxville today. He was too busy to meet with Bahama John yesterday — still can’t get past that.

 

[volfan4lyfe]

If we are going to go with a HC that is an offensive guru-type who has crappy offenses, I’d still rather have Leach.

 

[RiseToTheTop]

we were gonna hire a slimeball man who was 68-67 and instead may get a guy who is 113-53 over more than a decade. Yeh cant wait to see the national media bare down and tell us how thats a downgrade from psycho schiano.

Probably. But this is the most excited I've been since Saturday morning.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Now this is a guy who will need a top DC. We give him that then we will be rolling. Keep Gillespie

 

[ckilla27]

Can't wait to see all the new mullets around town. Gonna be awesome

 

[JCP201]

"And the man with the Mullet shall lead the rebellion of Volunteers"

Instead of Mullen we get Mullet.

I am in agreement here. I’d be shocked if Gundy leaves a place he seems to have been at forever.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Instead of Mullen we get Mullet.

This would be a better hire than Mullen also

 

[DeepPurpleFloyd]

My nuts are used to it

I've been saving up for surgery to have a foot removed from one of my nuts. Apparently "being a fan of Vols" is not covered by insurance.

 

[BeecherVol]

I'd say doubling his salary is more than fair.

Id make Petersen turn down 9 before I offered Mullet 7, much less 8+ (if thats legit)

 

[drylo]

Agree. They will call Gundy’s bluff and he will stay if they give him any kind of raise. If they just refuse to play ball at all, could see him walking.

 

[head1]

No way in hell Currie pulls that hire off. Getting fired up for him to bring Chad Morris back.

 

[JCP201]

Gundy would be a grand slam hire given what just transpired.

And he turned down Florida, apparently.

Kevin Steele?

Petersen may not be willing to come for ant amount of money.
