Tennessee Interviews Mike Gundy

Jimmy Hyams? @JimmyHyams Following Following @JimmyHyams More With Duke's David Cutcliffe and Iowa State's Matt Campbell out of the picture, Tennessee has turned its coaching search focus to Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy. Three sources told me UT has interviewed Gundy, perhaps in Dallas. UT offered Gundy in 2012 but he said declined.

talk about a homerun hire and massive upgrade from schiano.

This will be interesting for sure. I personally don't see Gundy doing well in the living rooms across the southeast or the nation. I just don't see Gundy out recruiting Saban, Orgeron, Smart, Mullen, or Malzahn.

Please make this happen!

I'd like to see Gundy in the east. it'd finally make their games fun to watch.

I hope Tennessee requires him to cut that God awful hair

His inroads in Texas would also help Tenn recruiting

Wasn’t there a rumor Florida offered Gundy and he already turned it down? Why would he turn down Florida outright but consider Tennessee?

Pat Jones says Florida offered Mike Gundy the job after Chip Kelly & Scott Frost. Says Mike didn’t use it to negotiate with #okstate. "This job was offered to Mike Gundy."

Gundy is awesome. Always said his hair epitomizes Oklahoma.

He and his hair will fit in just fine in Tennessee.

Much better than Schiano. Plus Gundy stands up for his players. :-)

Standard salary bump for Gundy. No way he goes off to Tennessee unless they offer him and his assistants a lot more money.

Hard to see Gundy taking the job. But he wouldn't have to replace too much of his wardrobe.
