So from Gruden, to McGee, to Bud Foster, to John L Fkn Smith..





This coaching search has been so great.

Way more enjoyable than Auburn's search in 2008/09

Fulmer declined a meeting. Wasn't interested and I don't blame him. Want to be remembered on top of UT fiasco for running another Top 5 team into dirt? Too much pressure. He is having fun being a pappaw and fishing 2 or 3 times a year out in Wyoming

I''d like to take this time to thank Jeff Long and Jessica Dorrell for our Cotton Bowl bid. This wouldn't have been possible without you.

Wow!

What a joke. Guy had to have been promised a long term position on the staff if he is not named head coach next. He just took a HC job in 2012 and already bailed on them. BAD BUSINESS

He is now supposed to go recruiting and talk to young people about being committed and to stay true to their word and have values???

What a joke.

Holding out hope that guy just wants traffic to his twitter.

IF THIS IS TRUE:

As far as an interim, he's as good as anybody else, and better than most people we could have gotten from the outside.

He's Petrino's mentor, and already knows the offense and defense. He won't be calling plays anyway.

He will be there to keep shite organized and keep morale up. Pretty much it.

If we hire John L. Long should just hand in his fricking resignation now. If this is his "best interim" solution then I can only imagine how bad he will frick up a legitimate coaching search.
