wilcox is a good, not great head coach. Not a great recruiter. Dykes is a just flat out mediocre power 5 head coach and can’t recruit worth shit outside of the state of Texas. Neither make a lot of sense to even interview for tenn, but dykes makes no sense.
The one thing our last three coaches had in common (other than losing) is that everyone around them seemed to hate them. Can we not do that this time?
According to a Minnesota reporter, Fleck turned down the job. Hoping that’s just his way of controlling the narrative and that we didn’t actually extend that offer. If so, it’s probably true that the search has fallen to the Tony Elliott level.
I honestly have a hard time believing that. Fleck would walk here to coach. He loves attention and that would be magnified 100 times at UT.
The choice of having an IRL conversation with Indy or getting AIDS would definitely give Tenny pause. Followed by him pulling up his socks and saying, “Let’s hurry this up, Magic.”
