Would Jeff Tedford be a bad hire?

[pharmDvol11]

Personally I think Cal's A.D. pulled a Hamilton by firing him too early. I think he has a strong resumé but could he win in the SEC?

 

[EaglesVols91]

Would take Fulmer back over him.

 

[Captainzach1]

He couldn't handle the stress and started having health issues.

I would too but I don't think ol Phil's coming back so we have to cross him off the list

 

[NashVol11]

Fulmer and Tedford would both be awful, awful hires.

A coach that couldn't hack it in the PAC 12 and you think he could make it in the toughest conference in college football !?? Would be worse then Dooley !!

 

[davethevol]

He has 7 letters in his last name, so yes.

 

[Remy]

Yes he would. UT job is helluva lot better than Cal and he's bombed out there recently. We need a huge turn around person ... a name with coaching chops & credibility... Gruden seems to be it.

Really? I didn't know that... Da Bears are actually worse than we are this year.. Tedford's overall record is like 82 - 57 so he's a proven winner in my book

Remember that time Cal won the PAC under Ted? I dont

He was a pretty good coach at Cal not counting this year... Had to compete with UCLA and USC for talent... Worse than Dooley? You've got to be kidding

Wasn't that the year Jon Gruden won the SEC?

Here's article I read about it

BearInsider.com - Dave Newhouse on Jeff Tedford

Aw, you so clever.

 

[orangeaid]

I don't want to rehire coach Fulmer but to compare Tedford to him is just wrong. Fulmer is light years away from Tedford.

That Super Bowl win may or may not make up for it

 

[pharmDvol11]

Aw, you so clever.

Thanks... My point was that one of those guys has proven he can win in college... Don't get me wrong I'd be excited to land Grudes but I wouldnt know what to expect

What's that got to do with College FB?

Tedfords been the coach at cal since the Bronze Age and what does he have to show for it besides some holiday bowl titles?

You must be young bc he's been there since 2002 which is only 10 years... He has experience in recruiting and he also knows a thing or 2 about coaching QBs... I'm not saying cut him a check I'm just making an argument...

Inherited a dump on probation with a 1-10 record and pathetic facilities. Proceeds to pump out Boller, Rodgers, a new weight room, facilities, renovated stadium with top deck, and the all time winningest record in school history. Total joke. That program was in ruins before Tedford was there.

 

[PennVol]

This might be the worst thread started in this forum. Good Lord this would be an awful hire.

 

[Velo Vol]

Is this a serious thread?

 

[VolsFanRJ]

Tedford would be a retarded hire.

Great Post. Very underrated coach.
