Word is now saying Gruden isn't interested in college, only pro. So what little enthusiasm I have left for Vol football these days is on life support. I'm not sure who might be considered next in line, but in my opinion it will have to be a big name otherwise the recruiting class will be dismal and we'll head right back down the path we've been on. I see only one answer now:
See Vinnie...he can still be your coach. Of the Cowboys.
I say bring in Charlie Strong if a change happens. Our problems are almost entirely on on the D. Surely a defensive guru like Strong can right the ship and at least be...below average to average looks really good right now.
My next suggestion will be less popular, but on the offensive side, retain much of the staff. At a min, Graham but I would like to see the OLine coach back and even Chaney.
On the D side, retain only the DL coach. I do think continuty is important. As little as I think of Suneri, that is a big part of the problem this year IMO.
