My patience is and hope is really deteriorating as well. Its great Turd is allegedly running a tight and quiet search, but man this is rough on the fans. Usually a couple leaks would happen to at least generate a discussion, but there has been nothing.
Also, Turd mentioned we would be hearing lots of names, well the only names are the ones coming from fans, there is anything coming from NU.
I feel like the longer this lasts, the less likely he gets anyone competent.
Removing the emotion out of this as best I can and trying to regain some sort of grip and objectively looking at things; we simply don’t know that to be true and I’m having trouble accepting the “The longer this goes the more likely it becomes we don’t get anyone any good” argument. We were always going to have to wait till at least Black Friday.
One step further, Turd doesn’t strike me as a bullshitter. I believed everything he said in his presser after Frost was fired. He just had that look about him. Being in sales for as long as I have and reading the way people conduct themselves, he didn’t strike me as a guy up there feeding us a line of bullshit. Also, he doesn’t strike me as a guy who is going to let anything “leak” that he doesn’t want to. So when the press know names, it’s because they are suppose to. I doubt he’s told more than 2 people outside of the search firm what’s going on and those 2 people aren’t telling anyone.
My confidence is starting to teeter because I don’t know if he’s looking high enough. I want him to shoot to be the 2024/2025 Tennessee. That takes a lot from the top down in terms of NIL, recruiting, transfers, etc but it can be done. But it certainly starts with a head coach that makes people willing to cut the checks to pay the type of talent an overhaul like that takes.
