I think we need to realize that HFC rarely ever leave a P5 gig once they have it. Fuentes is already making a mint at a place with far less scrutiny and a far less shittastic athletic department.
Justin Fuente would shove Bud Foster's lunch pail up John Currie's ass if we offered him this job right now.
I think Sumlin gets out of the SEC. I can see him going to ASU where he doesn't have to worry about a defense.
Only criteria missing here is being beaten like a drum by the coach we just fired. Maybe Schiano was the closest thing they could find to meeting these 3.
If you're looking for a high paying assistant job with no pressure of getting fired, come work for Tee
I'm fragile. Is there any indication Currie is on his way out? Because "should be" apparently doesn't mean shit in Knoxville.
We wouldn't fire Butch after he got his vagina blown apart 41-0 at home by UGA. Why the hell would we fire Currie just because he blew this in a mind-bendingly impossible fashion?
This is what I believe, too, but I was hoping someone had a crumb of info to share. Office Depot order (possibly containing bankers boxes) arriving at the athletic offices? Certain tipsters strutting like McGregor down Volunteer Blvd?
It does have to be a Tennessee staff and it doesn’t have to be rushed. Just take a few days, determine what options are actually available, and go from there. Stop panicking. Don’t sign anyone to an enormous deal. This won’t end well, but it doesn’t have to be something which guarantees failure for the next 10 years, either.
National media apparently is on his side. My guess nothing will happen to him and Tennessee trucks on being Tennessee.
Maybe there’s no chance at this point, but right now give me Brohm. Early returns are good, and if we can’t poach from Purdue, we’re probably off better with a year-long interim.
