they win 80-90% of the fanbase with butch hiring, anyone else and the fan support will still be trash. butch can beat saban n fisher for recruits hes the only one who can, i didnt think fisher was a slam dunk hire when he was under bowden until he hit the trail, with bowden at the top fisher cud not recruit that well. when he took over he was a monster and everyone with a brain knew he would win, butch can compete with those guys recruiting and we will win like we always have not with x and os with fkin better players than everyone else.
if um fails at this next hire kiss our beloved team goodbye
Seems a little presumptuous since none of the current HS kids have even seen Butch coach a team while the others you mention are among the preeminent names in CFB coaching, right or wrong. I do agree, wholeheartedly, with your assertion about winning with defense even in this over penalized, spread offense era.
While I am a fan of bringing Butch back I am still not sure why a guy with Florida recruits coaching the top ranked defense, again, wouldn't be at least a decent consideration.
