Why does nobody seem to want the UT job? Is it because Dooley was let go after 3 years or is it the probation?

Yes, the tradition, the fans and the facilities are great. But recruiting nationally is difficult. It takes a lot of work and some coaches don't want to put their reputation (and future job prospects) on the line facing such a task.

I think we're going to have to suck it up and hire the best non-head coach. We might even have to let Chaney try it. Hire Ellis Johnson for defense. Yea, I know. But we're in a hole and no one wants to climb in with us.

Chaney? Not just no, but hell frickin' no. He's worse than Dooley with high school coaches. Bring somebody in with some personality - somebody who can actually carry on a conversation with a high school coach, recruit, parent, or supporter without coming off as an arrogant prick.

According to Coaching Scoop Ellis Johnson will be Defensive Coordinator for Auburn under Mahlzan

If it has to be an assistant, I want Kliff Kingsbury.

I knew when they said negotiations that it was not going to happen. Jurich had said he would let Charlie go if Charlie did not want to be here, or absolutely wanted to be somewhere else, but that he would never lose Charlie to a contract.
I as still a little surprised that Charlie did not jump at the chance to get to the SEC, but not at all surprised that we had no chance in a bidding war.

CCS may want to win a few more years there and then jump to the NFL

Well I think $4 million is enough for Strong. Lousville slightly beat it, good for them, they can then have him. There are other coaches. Fedora would not be the worst hire, by far. There has been no mention of the guy at Stanford, and he is probably unlikely to leave, but I would love to have him. Art Briles...maybe even BDV's suggestion of Riley at Oregon State....there are still a few credible coaches around. If we stick with the BCS schools, then I am pretty much out of ideas. Wait...Dantonio at MSU has been mentioned a few times. Dropping down to mid-majors, Dykes is an obvious no. I can't recall the name of the guy at Western Kentucky, and he might have already gone elsewhere, but I'd prefer him to someone like Golden. Still other options out there, all of which are far better than Dooley, IMO.

Wind up? That's where we are right now. Well, except it hasn't been 20 years...yet. And I don't think it will be. But let's get a coach in here pretty soon!
