yup  :frown:

And HC experience or not, how would Tee be any worse?  He wants the job.  Just go get him.  It isn't that hard. :rolleyes:

I'm ready to say pull the trigger on Tee too, because the other options are just horrid. It would be Currie's smartest move, because with Tee comes patience from the fan base due to known lack of experience and  the ring he wears. Give him a LONG term contract, to the tune of 6 or more years & lots of money to get a great staff. With the commitment in years and money, he could then lure in the help he would need without the fear associated with the puppeteer Haslem

No to Morris and Doeren. Leach, Kiffin, Norvell, and Tee would be fine.

I wish Tee had two or three more years of experience, but IF he's great administratively he'll be fine.

I do not see the infatuation with Tee
I get he is a VFL
However, he is damn young and inexperienced for what proports to be a major program
also, his offenses aren’t all fat

oh pipe down, patch eye

If Brohm truly is out of the picture, leach maybe? I've lost track of who's in and who's out. As for Tee, yes, young, but he would be passionate and he would at least bring the fanbase back in from the pasture

I can gravitate to Morris if need be. I think Tee is 3-5 years away from a HC position. I remember that USC took the play calling away from Tee after the Alabama game and I don't know if he ever got them back. If he is not calling plays and an OC just in name only helping to develop the game plan, then that is a major concern.

We may have one more shot to throw the $6-7M number around this week because it looks like we want to be able to trot someone out during the SEC Championship game. If it fails which I think it will due to the neutered AD, then we should go back to Knoxville and re-group as best we can. Then on Sunday, someone needs to go see the likes of Morris, Durkin, Bobo, Pruitt, and/or Venables to end this nightmare by Monday evening.

What is the appeal for Morris? SMU was 7-5. Who's the North Dakota State coach? Chris Klieman. He would be more accomplished. Especially if he could get another Carson Wentz type at QB. He just signed a 6 year extension though.

Leach >>> Morris

I'd take Tee over Morris and soem of the other names thrown around.  I recall that in 2013, Fedora was far from my first choice but I did have him ahead of Butch.  The bloom is a bit off Fedora now, but I'd still take him over Morris.  In other words, no Morris!

Here is a list that Tamu is considering.  They can take Moorhead off, he's going to MSU.   :naughty:

Morris is on there...some names not considered here.  All have ties on that side of the South, but having ties in Texas might be good for a Tennessee coach,no?

The only one I might consider is the Ark State guy.  That did work out pretty well for Auburn.  Then again, he's not Malzahn.  I'm not sure if the above list has any real relation to Tamu search or is just an author grabbing at straws, but I look at that list and feel slightly better about our prospects.   :naughty:  Just slightly though.   :doh:

Tee would be okay but they would absolutely have to hire some stellar assistants for him. And if they did, would he be running the show or would the experienced assistants?
