Saw where he is a potential candidate for UT now. What is the story on this guy?

Followed Kelly to every job he has left.

Has had success doing so.

Would be better than any other hire in the SEC so far, Tenn needs to grab him..

He's a living, breathing human being. That automatically makes him a candidate to be the UT HC.

I think UT could do worse...but I think they're better off waiting until after the NFL regular season. Some names (no, not Gruden) may pop up that we haven't heard.

He's the only guy Dooley managed to beat.

Give their success hiring to date, he would be a decent choice...

UK chose to hire Mark Stoops instead of him.

Yeah, he took over a program where Brian Kelly had gone 34-6 and had led them to a BCS bowl and has gone 23-14 in his three seasons there.

Home Run hire, no doubt.

He was smart enough to not take the Colorado job, so that's a good start.

And as brought up, he's pretty much Kelly 2.0. TN could and has done worse.
