You would think it was Arkansas, I mean they had a 6 month head start. If it isn't all but a formality signing/introduction press conference then they really messed this up.

I wouldn't be surprised if you guys already have someone but if they are currently still coaching I don't see it being announced until after that coach has completed the regular season.

I think most coaches would want to see what jobs come up before committing. Not that Arkansas isn't a good job, but hot coaches won't need to worry about being passed by.

I wouldn't. It's the same problem you have in April. A lot of coaches aren't through the Monday after April. Gary Patterson, for instance, still has 1 more game to play at that point.

arkansas makes the 1st hire, imo... i honestly think dave hart didn't make the decision until last week after mizzou.

no way auburn's got a clue at this point.

Arkansas's known for the better part of 9 months they'll need a new HC.

I think losing to South Carolina was enough to ensure that Dooley wouldn't return.

This. I'm really begging to think The Vols land Gruden.


Im starting to believe this as well. Grudens name alone could do wonders for UT in the recruiting department. If he gets the right assistants on staff UT could become a factor again very quickly

You bastards are trying to get my hopes up.

I'm preparing myself for Joe Lee Dunn to Tennessee.
