One of my good friends is a Tennessee fan and thinks it will be Charlie Strong, is there any real chance of that?

Strong is supposedly this defensive minded coach. Well, his defense can't stop anyone. There are better choices for Tennessee.

Strong did pretty well at UF w all of their talent, but at S. Carolina it was pretty routine to see 3rd and 18,22,27,31 converted.

Agree
If I were a vol my number one pick would be stoops
He's a proven big time coach and may or may not be looking for a way out of Norman
I know he has lost on the big stage a few times but he will flat out put a good team on the field year after year

Stoops is not leaving Norman.
I would love to see Strong get a big time job but I do not want to see him take the Tennessee job.

What makes you say that?
I have no idea just curious
He is always a popular name in these future head coach threads

I just don't think he has any interest in leaving unless something has happened at the Sooners want him to leave. I have always heard he is very happy in Norman. He has had some chances to leave Norman for some very good jobs over the years. I don't see Tennessee being the job to make him leave. Just my take.

People say the same thing about Saban though, maybe he is ready for a new challenge

Stoops is 11 wins away from being the all time winningest coach at Oklahoma. think about that for a second. Doubt he's leaving until he takes over that distinction.

He was a really shitty call away from a Super Bowl in Oakland as well. He's a good coach I just have lots of doubts about his ability to develop really young talent and would he be able to recruit.

Because the guy would effing kill it in recruiting. Absolutely crush it. He wont be at Tennessee though most likely obviously. I think Tubberville would be a realistic and good choice for Tennessee. The current roster doesnt respect Dooley. They'd respect Tubberville.

Obviously he has no established track record but to me asking if he can recruit is like asking if Oprah Winfrey could compete on the competitive eating tour.
The guy can sell a vision to you in thirty seconds or less like few others.

Rumor has it that Grudens kids were at the big Christian Acadamy in Knoxville today touring it. It's where all the high dollar kids go to school up there. Just hear say, so tifwiw.

I can see that. But would he WANT to do that type of high level recruiting? You see guys like Spurrier and Tubberville who just dislike recruiting their asses off. But you do have a point. If he went out and did it, it would be hard for a lot of kids to turn him down.
My biggest fear is his being able to develop talent. that's still a complete 100% mystery.
