Nardog

I almost added him, but do you think his first two seasons get him at least another year?

Yeah. He's not in danger this year. But next year the heat will be on. His defenses have been surprisngly awful.

John Gruden to Tennessee??

Peyton Manning to Tennessee

My bowel movement to Tennessee?

Bump for first open SEC job. Who are the top candidates?

My bowel movement will be submitting his résumé.

Regarding Nardog and other great assistants: besides Saban, how many other great coordinators have left their school and we’re able to bring their specialty to a new school as head coach and didn’t take a step back with it. My thought is that you just can’t be that same coach on whatever side of the ball you’re known for. Too many other things you have to do as head coach.

Butch officially shown the door

As first reported by Bruce Feldman, @Volquest_Rivals can confirm that Tennessee has fired head coach Butch Jones. Brady Hoke to serve as the interim.

Well damn. There goes my Saugatuck mafia connection. ( not that I ever got one damn ticket).

Is that two open jobs in the SEC now? Florida and Tennessee? I expect Arkansas to have an opening, and possibly TAMU. There will be some good shuffling this year.

Dantonio to what SEC school?

Have to see where Harbaugh lands first..

I'm shocked Mike Riley still has his job.

I think it's because they can't officially name Frost as the HC until after the season is over. Done deal. No need to fire him now and have to answer a lot more questions.

If they already have him locked up, that makes sense. But I heard a rumor that Florida is going after him pretty hard. If they wait too long they might miss their chance.

The pirate is on deck if Frost falls through.

Did you guys read that piece I posted regarding Frost and Nebraska? It wouldn’t surprise me if he takes another job.

Missed it. Does he have some sort of resentment toward them? My wife worked with a girl who went to Nebraska with him. She claimed they were "best friends" in college (probably with benefits). If they were to miss out on him this year that would be an epic fail for their new AD.

From 1977-2008, Tennessee had 2 football coaches. Its next coach will be its fifth in 10 seasons (Fulmer, Kiffin, Dooley, Jones and the new guy).

Bet Kiffin would take and keep the job now.

FIXED. #runplaysthetaren’texpecting.

It would be hilarious to see Hoke succeed at Tenn (if given the chance) while Harbz is racking up 3rd place B1G East championships.

A guy can dream.

The secret weapon of every great coach. Herbie let the cat out of the bag.

I remember reading something - probably what you posted.  IIRC, it seemed to me that the divisions Frost and UNL went away as the NC team advanced that '97 season.  Add 20 years and any hard feelings might be put aside or forgotten.

If he doesn't take the job, it would be hilarious having The Pirate in the B1G

Report: Tennessee interested in Jets Defensive Coordinator Kacy Rodgers

This is the first story that didn't mention Kiffin, Gruden, Mullen, Kelly, Paterson, Brohm, etc.

USF is in Tampa.

USF is playing Tulsa

Jon Gruden lives in Tampa.

All of those things begin with a T.

Tennessee begins with a T.

Bret Bielema's still Arkansas' head coach, but you can already bet money on the next one




Would Leach really leave Wazzou for Arkzoo?

Malzahn

Jerry Jones.

UT not so dumb?

Finally some sanity. Gruden should stick w/the broadcast booth. He's pretty good at it. And schools only need look at how Gruden hasn't coached college in 25+ years.

Chip Kelly to UCLA
