your candidates:

Arkansas
Mississippi
Missouri
Tennessee

talk all you want about Florida & Texas A&M - neither will be in the coaching market this

I am going to say Tennessee - the cupboard is certainly not bare in Knoxville

IF the Aggies get in the coach search - I would place them just slightly higher than the Vols

AU has a good chance, if there are any players left after this year.

Tennessee will probably end up 7-5. Can a first-year coach do THAT much better?

Appears that way, but there's a lot of football left to play. November looms.

Without knowing how the different styles will change with the coaching changes. The easy answer is Tennessee.

No reputable coach is going to touch Tennessee. They will have to settle for their 4th choice again.

I see 6-6 as more likely & Mizzou might get them for a 5-7 final record

Mizzou don't think it can get any worse than it is now.

First year turnarounds are usually flukes.


Just look at Gus

Based solely on the players on the rosters:
1. Tennessee
2. Mississippi
3. Arkansas
4. Missouri

Missouri, because it won't take as much to be considered a successful turn.

You have to wonder if most potential coaches will look at how Butch was treated in his final year and pass because of it. Not saying Butch doesn't deserve to be fired but he's faced an incredible amount of public backlash and hate.

Out of that list I'd go with Tennessee. They have the most talent of anyone there.

Indeed. Potential hires must be willing to deal with the Energy Vampires currently keeping Butch and his football team down.
