12/18 Official Coaching Search Thread

[Steve]

Paul Clark wanting Loney and not Fulmer. THAT is hilarious...and sad.

My take is that is based on a desire to have access to "inside" information - something that he didn't have with Chizik and likely won't have with other outside candidates.

Head Coach with a National Title on his resume. Nuff said
Posted via Mobile Device

Howard Schnellenberger won a title, too. Why dont we pull him from Florida Atlantic:wink:

 

[intrepid27]

I respect Steve Loney but to me it is that same as taking a chance on a young coordinator. Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't his only HC job at Drake? Let me think about that one...............National Championship winning HC or Drake HC??.....Times up........FULMER!!

All of this talk about Fulmer sure has ended the speculation about Skip Holtz.

Ok Debbie Downer

I guess that comes from being a Cylclone fan for 25 years. Somebody around here needs to be a realist.

After wasting a few work days, and riding this rollercoaster, I can officially say I want a coach announced soon. My production level can't handle this.

no kidding..I haven't been productive at all and I am starting to have dreams about the coaching search.

the last thing I want is to be dreaming of sweaty Fulmer.

Rivals recruiting rankings over the last eight years for Tennessee:

2009 - 21
2008 - 35
2007 - 3
2006 - 23
2005 - 4
2004 - 11
2003 - 18
2002 - 2

Sure, his 2009 recruiting class would be great for us, but it does look like his recruiting has tapered off a bit lately.

I'm not so sure he would be a "no-brainer", but we definitely should take a close look at him, if he is indeed interested.

The fact is that any candidate that we will be able to hire will have some red flags. The red flags for Fulmer seem to be smaller than for the other candidates, IMO.

If we get Fulmer, does he bring with him some of the recruits that commited to Fulmer & not necessarily U Tenn.? :jiggy:

Has there even been any serious speculation about Skip Holtz, other than a few posters dropping his name?

If Fulmer wants the job.....it is his to have.

Simple as that.

Good, I'm not the only one. I've had dreams about this crap the last two nights. I haven't done more than 1/2 hour of actual work in the past 3 days. I'm like the guy in Office Space.

If I get fired I will not renew my season tickets. For cryin' out loud, we need a coach now!

Amen to that

Fulmer to Iowa St? - VolNation

Quick everybody contact their lawmakers and force ISU to allow tracking of the plane. i mean it is a public funded university, so we should be allowed to know where they are flying.

Marty & Miller and KXnO.com and 62andeven have learned that ISU AD Jamie Pollard is ‘actively’
negotiating with Arizona head coach Mike Stoops about the ISU head coaching job…

For what it is worth

 

[CrossCyed]

He is just saying dispite his record he has a horrible track record with the NCAA, and he thinks that it is a slap in the face to Johnny Majors for some reason, where I think if anything Johnny is maybe recruiting him a bit on our behalf. He goes on to say it would be a bad hire and he is a bad candiate to even consider.

Johnny Majors hates Fulmer.

I don't believe it for a second.

Can't say that he would be MY first choice, but I assume Pollard knows what he is doing.

Regardless, I hope we hear something today.

 

[gocubs2118]

Right now Stoops is 4th on my list. So I wouldn't mind the hire.
