🏈 The Coaching Carousel : UT promotes Kelsey Pope to WR coach

[UAgrad93]

Tucker may be an excellent coach one day, but “What in the Hell has he proven to garner an $8million+ contract?” Seriously? I’d like to know.

More they want to lock him in now than anything else. They already lost one coach to LSU that we all might remember. They don't want to risk losing another to LSU or another school.

I am in agreement with you. I bet the brass loved that Playoff appearance under Dantonio. and saw the money and attention it brought, so the fact they're sniffing it right now makes them wanna leap.

It's that time of year when Jimmy Sexton does Jimmy Sexton things then relaxes in his vault...

Sparty wants to compete on the national scale, and (as another poster already mentioned) doesn't want their head coach to leave like a certain head coach did back in 1999.

I hope Tucker makes a really loud statement this weekend.

I have heard Bill O'Brien is being looked at by VT.

A lot of fans would not be disappointed if they stole him away. But I thought he was committed to 2 years at the Capstone.

Contracts are made to be broken. I think those who want him gone are uninformed and aren't fully considering the generational players we lost last year. Mac set records for accuracy, Najee's ability to run-catch-vault is legendary, Devonta's speed and hands won him/and us a trophy, and Waddle has that Palmer/Prothro/Javy combination of vision-quickness-acceleration. You just can't replace all of that.

$8million+ contract?”

Izzo to make 3.92 million this season after taking a pay cut (forfeited pay) due to the changes in schedules that were Covid related.

He is probably well respected in that conference.

1995–1997	Georgia Tech (GA)
1998–2000	Georgia Tech (RB)
2001–2002	Georgia Tech (OC/QB)
2003–2004	Maryland (RB)
2005–2006	Duke (OC/QB)

I have seen his name linked to a few jobs and some that aren't open, yet.

 

[NickelDoubleDog]

BoB will be able to get a better job after 2022 than 2021. The offense next year is going to be even better, and it's a top offense this year.

Nomad… I wonder what his end goal is.

 

[64Tide]

To do at least one female in each county of the continental US.

Nomad… I wonder what his end goal is.

If he's at Miami, he's back in south Florida where Joey Freshwater had a blast. He's also in a much better place (sooner than Ole $i$$) to win a conference championship.

That said, if Miami doesn't offer a hefty salary to Mario Cristobal to come back home, then it's even harder to take da u too seriously (at all).

 

[Rolltide24]

I hear you. But moving around so much, he must have some type of longer term goals, right? He’s had what, 5 head coaching jobs in the last 12-13 years? Plus an OC job. That’s a lot of fits and starts. UT, USC, Raiders, FAU, Ole Miss

Spend millions as a program...save hundreds using a bus for one game...stupidly
