We hit the absolute bottom this year.
Not until you guys go 3-9, zero wins in SEC with an out of conference loss to MTSU. Only then will I be happy to see you guys climb back into SEC power 6 status.
Cut would be good though with Tee as CIW

Kiffin scares the most there, zero doubt. So hopefully not him.

We should hire Kiffin but it's not happening.

For the life of me, I just don't understand the fixation on Lane Kiffin that so many fans on this board have. For sure, he can call offensive plays & utilize the talent he has at his disposal. No one has ever doubted that.
But is this really the man that you would want leading your program? Seriously! Everywhere he's been, he's left bitterness & wreckage in his wake. Did Tennessee not learn this in 2009? For my part, I still can't tell if Tennessee's fateful error was to fire Phil Fulmer or to hire Lane Kiffin as his replacement, though I'd lean toward the latter. Say what you will about Fulmer - his program was in a steady decline from its glory days, & maybe he was too over-the-hill to get it righted - but on balance he was a darn good coach whose blood ran orange & who probably didn't deserve to be pushed out as he was. Kiffin, by contrast, is loyal to no one but himself. On top of that, he's always struck me as an immature child of privilege, the type of person who was "born on 3rd base & thinks he hit a triple", who behaves recklessly just because he can & then leaves for other people to deal with the consequences & clean up his messes. Most good coaches absolutely detest distractions, but Kiffin by his very nature is a continuous fount of distraction & drama.
Being a head coach is as much a matter of character as it is of coaching acumen or play-calling ability. This is where Kiffin comes up far short. Has he changed, now that he's once again leading a program at FAU? Maybe he's grown up a bit, but I'm not convinced. If his recent Twitter trolling is any indication, the answer is likely no.

Reports that Tennessee and Arkansas both talked to Gundy in Tulsa recently.
Also saw an article saying Leach has an offer from Tennessee.
Think we will just have to see when we see. I don't believe i have ever seen so many high profile schools with openings.
