I think Martin would be a fantastic hire. I don't mean this as degradation ... it's the best UT fans should hope for, and IMO it's exactly what the school needs.

If they could hire a new AD, Martin could succeed there.

Never said you said he would. Am saying when throwing out potential coaches one must consider if just throwing out names to say things.

Boo, that gif is like a 5 year old getting upset and telling everyone that he's a big boy, and totally not a little baby anymore.

I don't think anyone after the year of 1997 can heavily succeed with a mullet.

It's still amazing to me that a bunch of Twitter blowhards were able to derail a university from hiring a coach because they thought they deserved, especially the man who made Rutgers a respectable program for the first time in a long time.

They should have vetted him more to begin with, but not hiring Schiano, was the correct move.

I don't think many of you have read the deposition/court testimonies...and no, not the one where his fellow coach and two of kids stated under oath that Schiano knew, the root case. There was close to 50 contacts with Penn coaches and the victims/victim families, and that was just the first 12 boys. They have paid off about 40 now. (33 plus however many the other day...not disclosed.)

It's almost impossible for him to not have known, basically working directly under the molester. But if he was totally ignorant, and completely blind to what apparently almost every coach knew, then he is completely unqualified to be a head coach.

Ohio State should fire him, and the complete Paterno staff should be blackballed from the sport. We choose who are friends are and who we work with. Schiano either chose to be blind to his friends or more simply, was an enabler to keep his job.

This is spot on. Thanks for shedding some much-needed light on this issue. PSU should have gotten the death penalty for what happened there under Paterno's watch (or lack thereof).

Mike Gundy just turned down $42 million from the Vols.

Freaking hilarious how bad UT has screwed this up.

So kids who played there and future kids all whom had nothing to do with this should be the ones to get punished by not being able to play? Yeah that makes a lot of sense. NOT!

Pretty sure he was referring to the coaches. Although, it was hard not to notice that 99% of the young men, not kids, under Paterno, were 100% supporting him, and basically called all the real kids in this liars.

This was not a one time thing, but a system of abuse that spanned decades. As they like to say, We are Penn State. I would be hesitant to hire anyone with a Penn degree at this point.

If Penn State wishes to clean its slate, and regain its position among institutions, it needs to stop signing no disclosure payoffs. You don't get forgiveness for something you only admit in private with lawyers.

For example the 33 million dollar payout this last week that no one knows what exactly it was for, or even how many people it went to.

They should also tell Paterno's son to shut up and that he doesn't represent the college.

Makes sense to eliminate a program that for years facilitated the sexual abuse of children. Current PSU fans joking about taking their opponents "to the showers" (which I believe can be found in the Big 10 thread) reflect the lack of learning in this sad situation.

UT AD John Currie made an offer to Jeff Brohm that Brohm accepted. Currie then asked the chancellor to approve the offer — buyout included — and chancellor said no. So Currie went back to Brohm with lesser offer and Brohm said no.

Seems TN is looking to hire a coach on the cheap. Won't get much if you want to pay a guy peanuts. Maybe can go to clown college to hire someone. But that means TN would have to hire from within then.

Not a Tennessee fan but IF it's about winning and no care for moral compass, Bobby Petrino would take that type of program back to winning quickly

Isn't happening but that dirt bag can recruit but hide your female trainers and be prepared for him to split on a dime
