Sounds like no coordinator. Also he has said nothing that would infer Gruden is a candidate outside of the stuff we've previously known.

Glad you posted this JP. I thought the same thing when he was commenting on coaches. I was scared it was just wishful thinking on my part.
"Old School"! A strong defense wins championships!

With Hart's comments on previous HC experience being "critical", seems that at least for right now, some of those names can be crossed off the list...

He's highly regarded and has been mentioned a lot on the hot coaches lists. But obviously, Tennessee fans could not handle another La Techer at this time.

We're on the same page.

Reported on TSR that Bob Stoops had contacted UT about possibility of coaching. and the Jon Gruden had contacted Rahim Mooris and George Quarrels about possibly being on staff in Knoxville. Care to comment Wes?

If Gruden comes to college and doesn't come here this entire AD is going to explode. If he decides to stay in the booth it is one thing but if we get outbid by Arkansas the fans are going to revolt. If they make money an object in this hiring process I will never send them a cent.

Reported by who on TSR?
And why would Gruden contact a high school coach?

If Gruden says no, I'd make calls to Art Briles and David Shaw next.

Jimbo Fisher, Will Muscahmp, and Dantonio seem to have been pretty successful

Not that impressed with Jimbo. I attended their game against Va. Tech and watched his team rush for -15 yards. The FSU play calling was awful.

I like Shaw but he's a Stanford alumnus. I don't see him leaving. Briles is more logical but he would have to have a very good defensive coordinator. Those two would be farther down the list as well.
