Is apparently not going to be offered the head coaching job at Georgia Tech. 790 The Zone in Atlanta is hearing "strong rumors" the new coach will be current Navy coach Paul Johnson. This would open the door for Tenuta to come to BR to coach for the national champions.

Les might be upset with him if he's the one that ran his mouth to herby.

considering tenuta had no clue about those rumors I doubt it was him.

I think tenuta is more likely to come here than he was to UM

Herbie said his source was someone who would be directly involved in the Miles negotiations. A prospective DC that aint.

Les said that if Bo were to leave (it wasn't official yet) that Tenuta'd def. be one of the guys he'd look at. I can't remember where I read it, but I was a bit shocked he even replied to the question seeing as how Bo wasn't even gone yet.

Found it

quote:

Q. You just asked us to ask you, so I'm going to ask you, if Bo Pelini goes to Nebraska will you be interested in Jon Tenuta?

COACH MILES: I have no idea. I've given little thought to that. There's a number of guys that I'm considering if that happens. Thank you.

Q. Is he one of them?

COACH MILES: Sure.

Now he coulda been being a jackass to the guy, ol' Leslie was being kinda fiesty that day.

I would think with us probably having the most attractive DC spot open and tenuta being one of the best DCs in the country and the 2 names already being connected it seems likely.

I think he will be the guy. He see's what Bo did...stick around as a dc for 2-3 years, big up your repuatation even more with LSU's amazing athletes, and use that to get a good HC job down the road.

I doubt that happened. Report is Tenuta was just as surprised because he was vying for the GT job.

if radokovich ever wants the AD job at LSU, he won't name tenuta ga tech coach. would be suicidal.

Les pretty much blamed that on a UM athletic personel today on Brando's show...He also didn't deny that Tenuta was being considered but said that several people including inhouse personel were being considered...

I've got a bad feeling that we will go from within.

Miles passed over Monken for O Coordinator and went with Crowton. I doubt he promotes from within.

The only candidate from within would probably be Peveto and he is the worst coach in the history of organized sports.
