The CheckerBoard

I agree with a lot that Fedora has really moved up in my mind these past few weeks. I think we all forget that Tennessee is an easy place to win at so we don't need a home run hire you need a guy who will come in and motivate guys that's the difference in winnning 8 and winning 10 games and I think Fedora can do that. I think a lot of people can do that but I think Fedora would be in my top three.

You want to keep most of the O staff? If it ain't broke, don't fix it! Get a Top DC and turn him loose. The answer is like a slow rising tide. There is one man who is rested, reinvigorated and a VFL. Think about what Bill Snyder has done returning to Kansas State. I and many others who have been around for a while are beginning to love us some Phillip Fumer.

Before you dismiss this, remember, he has been sitting by watching the pot boil for four years. He is very intelligent and loyal. He has seen his errors and could be even better now than he was winning a National Championship and SEC Championships. He is one of the best recruiters in the country. Maybe crow wouldn't taste so bad smoked and slathered with some top notch B B Q sauce. Name one candidate who has a resume' even close to his.

An Old Fart and loyal fan for over 55 years humble opinon and I am no longer alone. We are coming out of the woods and growling.

ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!!!!!!

I don't know if Fedora would be a good fit or not ... is he a 7 1/4?

Here's something else I don't know .... maybe someone on here could educate me on the subject. Has Dave Hart ever hired a Head Football Coach? I don't mean a former Head Coach who came to FSU as an Assistant and then moved into the Head Coach spot .... but an actual Head Football Coach. If not, this may not be something that Dave Hart is going to be very good at ..... from a former basketball player's persepective (which if I'm not mistaken, is where Dave Hart gets most of his actual sports experience from).

I do know that when Dave Hart fired Coach Mark McHale along with Jeff Bowden (which can be likened to throwing the baby out with the bath water), Bobby Bowden responded by leading his team to the worst Win/Loss record in his 34 year coaching carreer ... and this was under Dave Hart as FSU AD.

I STILL think that Coach Mark McHale would be a great fit for Head Coach of UT's Football program
