Sell Me On UK: What Would YOU Say To Lure A Great Coach To UK?

Seems simple enough doesn't it? Just put an ad out there in College Football Magazine and say that an SEC school is looking for a head football coach. Experience preferred, but not mandatory, salary commensurate with current experience and success level. No problem. The resume' box should start filling up any second. People should be burning up the phone lines. So if it is you on the other end when they call, what are you going to say?



Does anyone know what it is going to take to get a top qualified candidate to look at UK and say, " yeah, I can see myself winning there"? Is there a "gipper" speech in any of you? Tell me and the rest of the world what YOU would say to our next potential coach. Tell me the words to give Mitch Barnhart that are gongto tip the scales in our favor with so many positins out there open. Make me believe I am the candidate that belongs at UK.

Who knows? Maybe Mitch will read your answer and use it to get the guy we really need in here. Give it your best shot, and you will have to do better than rah rah, sis boom bah. Tradition and the usual stuff are not going to get the right guy to walk through that door. You will have to do better than singing the fight song and showing me a sentimental video montage. I want to know why UK should be the destination of the next Bill Walsh. Tell me what is going to get this generation's Vince Lombardi to don the blue and white. And you better hurry. Interviews are now taking place.
