If we hire Gundy we are going to change our stadium renovation plans to match his hair cut. Business in the front and party in the back. Would be awesome. Get us some bars on the backside of Neyland by the river.

He probably already did. I bet Currie or someone was working the phones feverishly yesterday offering to double salaries or pay $8 million. And they probably got a lot of nos.

This hire has to be done fast. Can't play cat and mouse with these coaches or wait and see what they need in order to get into the details of the offer. Gundy probably said "get to Stillwater tomorrow and we'll talk," and here we are.

After trying to sneak Schiano in through the back door I wouldn't give Haslem/Currie that much credit.

That's an 8-4 record on average. 8.4m for 8-4 doesn't really get me pumped. Just because Schiano was a turd sandwhich doesnt make this great.



its not bad either. Its not like that evens out to be 8-4 every yr. If you cant see that hes a good hire then i cant help you. dont respond.

They're in save face mode right now. Boosters are probably threatening a mutiny. This hire restores status quo and puts their AD stooge back in good standing, even if it means a small (and I mean small) hit to their pocketbook.
 
Currie will be fine if we hire Mike Gundy. That's the point here. Haslams don't want egg on their faces and they don't want to lose their guy. They are willing to overpay to protect their image and their stooge AD.

History shows the Haslems don't care.
 
Gundy has beaten 11-win TCU, Oklahoma, Baylor, and Stanford teams. Has Patterson, Stoops, Briles, and Shaw scalps. He's cool with me.

He's not going to square up and punch Saban in the nose every year, but he'll have us competitive in the East annually after a year or two, IMO.

I believe the bold. But Im not sure they can cover the stinch up enough that somebody legit would be willing to do deal with it.

We're a bad hire away from death, now. Gundy is a great hire.
