I wonder that too. And if so, that is a tar-and-feathering worthy grift.

 

I say some crazy stuff but this Carpetbagger takes the cake!!

My man.

I think we need to bring it back

 

Lol. Put on a little Crosby Stills and Nash and let it ride. “There’s a girl right next to you and she’s waiting for something to do”

 

I guess Pruitt has somebody to sell his smocks too.

 

Oh please. No one wanted the job because it’s a dog shit job right now. It’s as simple as that.

 

Then we weren't offering 8 million a year. And if we weren't, go look up coach salaries at top 10 schools. Top 25 schools.

 

I just don’t believe this. If you’re serious about winning pay the premium required in this situation and roll.

 

Worked for Bama. They identified their guy and wouldn’t let up until he said yes.

 

By several accounts, we were offering that and still couldn’t get a bite. Believe what you want but the perception most Tennessee fans have of this program is very far removed from reality.

 

Most all these guys make good money. It’s not 1983. A guy making 4/5M isn’t gonna jump into this situation. All the guys we wanted are in a position to be picky.

 

Lexvol liked your post, so I am going to keep going because no one needs to be liking this knee-jerk no-analysis bullshit talk. Last year, Kentucky paid Mark Stoops over 5 million. Mississippi State paid Mike Leach 5 million. South Carolina paid 4.37 million. Elia Drinkowitz at Missouri was brought in at 3.9 million. Derek Mason at Vandy was paid 3.5 million.

James Franklin made 6.7 million last year. Pat Fitzgerald made 5.2 million this past year. Purdue and Nebraska paid their coaches 4.8 million. Ferentz at Iowa made 4.7 million.

If we are spending 4 million on a coach, AGAIN, we are not competing. We aren't. That has nothing to do with the job, that has everything to do with the [uck fay]ing market. The industry. We are not PAYING the cost of top coaching. AGAIN. We've done this with Dooley, Jones, and Pruitt too. And the worst [uck fay]ing part is that we will give out raises for the most nominal improvements once they get here, that would have for the same price opened us up to better hires.

 

It all comes down to the contract we give this Batman clown. If it looks like he’s a placeholder with upside if he does well. Well, I guess I’ll live with that.
If we sign him for all eternity with a bajillion $ buyout. I’m done.

 

I don’t know what’s so hard to understand about this.

 

Im saying reset the market if you have to. Any number of people here on this board, and I’m serious about this, could have made a far better hire assuming they had the money backing them. Napier wants an army of analysts and 100% control? You got it pal. Kiffin wants 8m and to pay each coordinator 2m? Ain’t no thing.

 

I’m taking this opportunity to say I told you so. I told you all so. There, I said it. Shouldn’t have fired Pruitt after watching auburns search play out. Nobody worth 8M a year would come here to wade and eat through the diarrhea that this job comes with
