Robert Gillespie offered RB job

Tennessee: Sources tell us that both Georgia's Tony Ball and West Virginia's Robert Gillespie interviewed yesterday in Knoxville. We are told Ball "accepted Georgia's counter" today. Will update...

From football scoop

Oooo, would rather have Ball. Would have gave us Chubb plus good shots at Michel, Hurd, and Mixon, he has good relationships with all four, not to mention perhaps Autry and Stanley Williams. Would take ANY of these guys. Wow, we swung for the fences.

yeah butch knows what he is doing...cannot wait to see who he picks
 
Those WVU fans are almost as crazy as out fans.

Eerily similar. The best part is them trying to sugarcoat Holgerson losing his entire staff in 2 years. Sound familiar? Sounds like our fans with Dooley...."we're upgrading",LOL. Pure chaos causes one to lose an entire staff in two years. WVU fans have some dark days coming, mark my words.

i can see the similarities, and hopefully those days are all behind us
 
Little different, but I get you point. I just figured as good of a job they had done keeping Ball and Gillespie names quiet, that it might be.


Here's hoping...but I have to admit as much as I hated losing JG...there's always excitement and buzz in a coaching search..about the same as recruiting

I'll be happy with Gillispie but almost had the guy that recruited crowell #1 rb, marshall #1 rb, and gurley just in the last two years

being at Georgia helped get those players. RG has had to recruit to West Virgina

I know, I'm just saying. But, WVU has had some good backs over the years too. Noel Devine comes to mind. With that said, this guy is all over south florida, this puts us in the running to get SONY MICHEL :dance2:
