Title: Oh, BTW- we still don't have an OC. Post by: Black Diamond Vol on December 11, 2018, 07:58:47 EST Does anyone even care anymore? I'm overcome by apathy. :frown:

Title: Re: Oh, BTW- we still don't have an OC. Post by: JeffCountyVolFan on December 11, 2018, 08:44:19 EST More than anything else, I think it is important to get it right. Over the long run, that is the priority.
In the short term I think that not having an OC in place could influence the early signing period, so that is worrisome. It doesn't, however, warrant hiring someone who isn't the right person just to fill the spot for recruiting purposes. Having said that, the dynamics of this search concern me "if" we are having trouble filling the vacancy because people are turning us down. It very well could be that nobody has been offered the position. It is also possible that coaches have simply opted not to take the open spot on our staff. We just don't know. At this point, we must put our faith in CJP. He needs to get this right. It very well could be the decision that ultimately helps to determine whether or not he will be successful here.

Title: Re: Oh, BTW- we still don't have an OC. Post by: VinnieVOL on December 12, 2018, 06:23:59 EST Doug Matthews just said on radio that TN knows who they're going to hire. "Wasted time worrying". For whatever that's worth.
“I stand by what I said before. Tennessee knows what they are going to do at OC. Maybe it’s a coach that’s coaching for a championship, maybe there’s a buyout to work through, but they know who they are going to hire.”- Doug Mathews Title: Re: Oh, BTW- we still don't have an OC. Post by: VinnieVOL on December 12, 2018, 06:46:59 EST “There are so many reasons to not name the OC right now and NONE of them are negative. Maybe they don’t want to take the 10th person they have on the road recruiting right now. That would happen if they officially hired an OC.”- Doug Mathews

I'm not sure Doug knows what he's talking about. I know he and Fulmer have been tight in the past but I'm wondering where his information is coming from.

I'm not sure Doug knows what he's talking about. I know he and Fulmer have been tight in the past but I'm wondering where his information is coming from. Yep. That's cover. Pruitt pitched Cheney over the weekend. If a hire has been made there is no need to continue to talk to potential candidates. Title: Re: Oh, BTW- we still don't have an OC.

Title: Re: Oh, BTW- we still don't have an OC. Post by: murfvol on December 15, 2018, 07:25:59 EST I love Doug Mathews, but he'll lose credibility if he carries Fulmer's water. What he said about keeping the OC secret last Sunday made no sense.
