Wait...didn't we hire a strength coach? Nelson from Idaho, right? Are you suggesting that because this guy from Tennessee is available now and may've been higher on RV's X-mas list that we'd go after him and fire our guy?

I think he is saying our guy may go to Tennessee

Ahhh...gotcha. Damn.

H-towngreen · May 22, 2009

They did pass on him 6 months ago....you never know.

Censored by Laurie · May 22, 2009

Is he under contract? Is he not a douche?

2 yeses and he stays.

H-towngreen · May 22, 2009

Contracts don't mean anything, coaches up and leave all the time. But with that being said, for some reason I think he stays.

I don't want a strength coach who's a quitter. This job is not a stepping stone.

Coach Ausmus got stung by Kiffin, so, I really do not think,

Coach Ausmus will bolt back to the wasp nest.

From what I have heard, Coach Ausmus likes his job here

at NT, the players, the staff, and the Mean Green scene.

Personally, I would avoid the Lane Kiffin/Tennessee scene like the plague. Yes, Kiffin has brought some top recruits and top coaches. But if he doesn't win big at Tennessee, and do it fairly quickly, he has set himself up for massive failure. If Coach Ausmus does want to move on to a bigger name school at some time, the offers are sure to come.

Kiffin has already committed at least 2 recruiting violations, so I would stay away from him as he may not last long if the NCAA had an huevos when it comes to BCS schools.

Assuming that he wants to move back to a "big time" program, I can't think of a better way to make myself more attractive to those programs than helping the North Texas program positively change their DL (and other defensive) statistics.

This guy is one of the best things to have happend in two years since I have been so involved in the program. I don't think he is moving on. Only rumors.
