Brian Kelly is the Clubhouse Leader for the Tennessee Job
1-liner, College Football November 20th. 2008, 6:00pmMike Leach is a “Gadgets” Guy: Cincinnati’s Brian Kelly is apparently the leader for the Tennessee job, according to Mike Griffith of the News Sentinel. But then Griffith went and said this about the Texas Tech mad scientist: “Mike Leach still has his name thrown around, but I don’t see it. No one is going to come into the SEC and win with Xs and Os – it takes talent, not gadgets. And, I just don’t see Leach (47) being able to handle the level of scrutiny that comes with the UT head football coach job. It’s a regal position – hardly a post for someone with erratic and eccentric personality traits.” (Rocky Top Talk via EDSBS)

A gadget guy? Pfff.
However, I think this guy is spot on about the personality and scrutiny.

Sweet jumpin’ jiminy! I’m a Vol fan and think that’s a crock of shite. It’s the kind of thing people said about Urban Meyer before he went to Florida — “He’ll never win the SEC with that kind of stuff.” Hell, I’d LOVE to have Leach as the Tennessee coach.

Who the fuck decribes a head football coach as ‘regal’. Who gives a shit what he is, as long as he wins?

Pete – Good point on Meyer.

Umm.. the Big 12 is arguably better than the SEC, and Texas Tech isn’t just winning with X’s and O’s. Name me an SEC other that wouldn’t trade for their o-line/qb/wr’s? Maybe Florida?

Um…Alabama’s O-line?

arguably better? sure, if you like seeing matador defense and no tackling.
SEC > Big XII
it’ll be fantastic seeing florida win by 30 over texas/TT/Okla.
