Maybe the coordinators shouldn't retain Mason....

That's what happens right before you get canned.

Love it when there is chaos at Andy. This means new OC and DC will fire the other assistants and bring in there own staffs. Be hard for Andy to sign any more kids this cycle without knowing who their coaches are going to be. You JUST HATE TO HEAR IT FOR Andy.

Butch can apply for OC.

Your right. When they win Mason claims he runs the defense. Guess he has his scape goats. lol

Who would go there when Masons leash is 1 chain link

Mason is a fool for not getting out when he had an opportunity. He was so sure he could be a powerhouse in Nashville. Hahaha

Mason is the perfect example of the “Peter Principle”. He’s a good defensive coordinator but he’s risen to his level of incompetence as a HC.

Yeah, he is the other football powerhouse with the Titans.

Meh, he's a "fool" who's $15 million richer than most of us (and I'm sure he'll get a sweet buyout in a year or two as well).

I don't think he's a great head coach, but he was given an opportunity to make a lot of money as one and was smart to take it. At some point, he'll go back to being a DC, but his net worth will be $10+ million higher than it would've been otherwise.

Have you followed Vandy for the last 40 years? I don't think it's all Mason. It's a place where elite players rarely go. And not a great stepping stone for a coach. Gerry Denardo (remember him) escaped and went on to LSU, but he Peter Principled in Baton Rouge. Franklin escaped and went on to better things, however jury still out if he Peter Principals out at Penn State.

They put on the Jumbotron during the Vandy game that it would take 43 victories (in a row) to catch UT in the W-L of the series. Dang, I'll be dead if they ever do that.

No one said the cat didn't have $$$, hell any coach in the league is filthy rich. My point was he had an opportunity to take other head jobs outside the SEC. Only a fool believes they can build a long term contender in Nashville. They are who we knew they were. Franklin knew he could not sustain in Nashville and looked to get out.
