Don't think Chaney is an option for Hart and I don't think he believes in power football, something every top team in our conference understands. Strong's star dimmed a bit the last two weeks with some questionable losses. Golden won at Temple, a nearly impossible task but Miami looked very average the last two years. Petrino has a creep factor, pretty sure Hart's integrity comments rule him out, along with Tressel, another excellent but flawed coach. Gruden and Stoops, even if either is interested, are too expensive for real consideration. Yes, I know we are supposed to "open the checkbook and buy the best guy" but seriously? We simply can't afford pay Gruden's likely $6 million+ salary and hire assistants, nor can we afford Stoops' salary plus buyout.... Ditto with Patterson. Looks like Fedora or Jones would be leading at this point. Jimbo Fisher is my darkhorse because (a), the ACC is a dying conference in the big BCS picture and (b), he worked with Hart before. His salary is manageable, he can recruit Florida, and he believes in power football on both sides of the ball. We'll see in the next week or so I guess. Go Vols!!!
