So I put together the hot board and Kevin's name goes on the thread, huh?
Privileges of being the boss, I suppose...

Interesting to not see Goldens name on the list... I'm sure this came from sources but is there any particular reason he was left off?

He's 3rd on the list

Any of those are an upgrade from what we've had the past 3 years. What a breath of fresh air.

Are there sources involved Kevin or is this educated speculation?

Sonny Dykes? You're messing with us. I like how you nonchalantly slipped that in there.

Is there any reason why Vic Fangio isnt up there? He's built a heckuva defense at pretty much every location he's coached.

Good stuff! Question about Fisher - why do you think he'd possibly favor Auburn over UT? Also- how likely is it that Chizik will be fired? I know the buyout for Auburn's current staff is much greater than UT's....

Pay Saban 12 million a year problem solved ! If not bring us Mike Gundy or Greg Roman and bring Kirby Smart to coach defense.
