How much will the fans blow up with that decision? Could be Morris but not sure he is ready to leave Texas yet. He might since aTm Locked up Jimbo for 10 yrs

I think maybe Les.....I dunno. I think there is pressure to hire someone with head coaching experience.
Fans don't seem to want Kevin.

Fulmer probably sees a kindred spirit in Les Miles.

Nobody besides Art Briles has ever done anything at Baylor and we know how that turned out.

True, but Baylor was extra bad when Steele was their coach.

I’m sure it wasn’t entirely his fault, but that stint for him was clearly damaging since he hasn’t been on anyone’s head coach short list since.

Chance of riot: Steele(despite being alum) 60%. Morris about 75% They want big name proven guy, except Les Miles, who's too old.

It would kind of make more sense than going after BV. Steele has HC experience even though Baylor was terrible but they always have been when they have any integrity, and maybe cannibalizing the top of the conference probably only helps them.

Personally, would love for Chad to get it... Except if Steele

gets it, then I think we would continue to raid Tenn for recruits.
But I think Chad would do well there.

Kind of like the Rooney rule. They want to at least have the look of diversity in their candidates

Morris would be a great hire for a University that really screwed this process up. If they want some upsets they will need to build a new fresh offense. They're not going to be beating Bama at their own game. The SEC is boring and a HUNH can win games there. It's exactly what a you need to get a program out of a slump. Chad should get a HUGE amount of credit for getting Clemson out of our slump.
Everyone likes offense and Chad knows offense. Get people excited about the team and recruiting will skyrocket and wins will pile up.

He would be a great hire but Tennessee fans were already complaining of his record when his name was mentioned. Not even taking into account he is doing this at smu where it’s almost impossible to win

if I'm the AD,I'm hiring either
Dec 4, 2017, 11:27 PM

The Chad
Or
Less Miles to a 3 year deal with Tee Martin as OC with coach in waiting tag. I would hire the Chief to be he DC for those 3 years with a young DC grooming to take his place. Those two leave in the sunset with Phil and they hire a new AD to take over while Tee Martin is taking Head ball coach.
