Why do people think that Saban is leaving anytime soon? Just because he's been so successful there's not much else for him to do? He's not that old and could easily coach for another decade.

Just like now a change needs to happen but I'm not sure it's Butch. Definitely DeBord. I'll wait and see what happens the rest of the season before I'm ready to call it quits on Butch.

KICK BAMA KICK posted:First, gently caress Clay Travis, but I was wondering where Butch stands -- I assume the current level is will return but officially in danger next year but is it hot enough that any more losses this year could be the end? I know their schedule is so soft that another loss would necessarily be a bad one. Yeah he'll stick around at least another year unless we drop one to Kentucky or mizzou. Or got forbid Vandy. I don't know if it would be an immediate firing but his seat would heat up considerably.

Kim Jong Il posted:Is it? They turned to Jones after pretty much everyone turned them down, and something similar happened with Dooley. I know Jones has recruited very well, and the east is weak - a good coach would win right away. Well that's the difference right? After Kiffin and Dooley UT was a tire fire that had next to zero talent. Coffers are pretty full with talent now so in the hypothetical situation of looking for a new HC, it's an easier sell. And I don't remember the search for before Butch being that bad. I think our #1 target was Charlie Strong? Or maybe that was the Dooley search, I can't remember. I think the only person to flat out say no was Kirby Smart and I think we dodged a bullet there anyway.

Spacebump posted:2009 and 2010 saw Tennessee have two top 10 recruiting classes. Hardly "next to zero" talent. After Dooley there was zero talent. The 2010 class Kiffin pulled in went to poo poo because he was telling them all not to go to class so they could transfer when he left. The 2009 class two of the top three kids transferred and the third, Jansen Jackson, transferred after a year and had recently been tried for murder. Yeah we had next to zero talent when Butch got here.

I admittedly have lost track of him because it's Duke, but why has no one looked Cutcliff's way? Is it just because of age or has he said that he doesn't want to coach anywhere else?

Meanwhile Tennessee still doesn't have an AD to be fair the new chancellor doesn't take office until March 1 and they've said for a while an AD wouldn't be hired until early Feb. All signs point to Dave Blackburn being the guy Joey Freshwater fucked around with this message at 05:25 on Jan 16, 2017 |

Vols fired Willie Martinez and hired Charleton Warren from UNC to be the DB coach. Don't know much about the guy but UNC's passing defense was pretty good this year so it sounds like a good hire.

I'm skeptical of it at best - I really wanted Blackburn - but to play devils advocate, what's he done to suggest that he wouldn't be good at it? Or at least bad enough to warrant the response it's gotten in this thread? I've just chalked most of the reactions up to the general "lol tennessee" attitude people here seem to have recently, but since the questions been asked, I'm genuinely curious.

I think the Fulmer thing is less fan service and more making boosters happy. From what I've read there's several large ones that are pushing hard for it to happen. Most fans I've talked to or read about have wanted Blackburn.

DJExile posted:Bubba Cunningham, current UNC AD, is now in the picture for the Tennessee job. Seems like a good thing, but UNC already opened the bank for them to keep him from going to Florida. I wonder if they'd do it again. It's also really weird how they're treating Blackburn. It seems like the guy really wants to go to Knoxville but they're not letting him - wonder what happened.
