No, Lovie Smith was less than 10 years removed from coaching when he went to Illinois.

Lovie smith doesnt have the personality gruden does. Gruden is more of a ceo/marketing hire. Get him some great coordinators, and things would be interesting.
He'll troll saban like no other could. On the field be giving him his chuckie stare from across the field, and on the recruiting trail. Gruden would pull attention away from saban, and he'd hate it. For all this alone the sec needs chuckie at UT. Ha. Other than that him alone as a coach he'd be a meh hire.

No Lovie Smith was a worse coach in the NFL and is nowhere close to star status like Gruden is.

No. I think Tennessee fans believe their program is better than what it actually is, but the University of Illinois is fricked beyond athletics. The Chambana area and more specifically, the University itself has had quite a few issues in the national spotlight the last few years that has honestly hurt them. Also the state is not a talent rich producing state. Most talent is either from Chicago area or Stl suburbs.
Lovie was a big name hire after Beckman (iirc) to cover the hazing and issues within the athletic department. Gruden however is the type of guy if he does accept a college position, he would be all in and probably have quite a few big names on his staff. With the budget issues in Illinois it blows my mind that Lovie was given that type of money.

Yeah, some people just wanna be mad all the time.

You are not getting Gruden... he is not leaving the booth. Esp when he can stay where he is at and make more money than Tenn would be willing to pay.....

Lovie Smith went to the Super Bowl with Rex Grossman as his quarterback.

And how has this worked out so for the Fighting Illini? Everyone says to give him time. Hes getting 2-3* talent. He will be removed sooner rather than later.

Also refer back to my previous post about the budget. There are tons of kids being brought in to Champaign and Charleston from up north who are project kids, that dont work out, and are destroying the community and athletic programs.

That’s not the type of coach he was at all in the NFL
