No inside sources... just a feeling.
I heard Tanner say on TV that they would like to hire someone with ties to the university, but it was not a requirement.
I thought that was pretty interesting... why even bring it up?
Monte has been very careful to never rule it out...using the normal coach speak: "I'm happy at Clemson", "I am planning on being here a while", etc.
If O'Sullivan is willing to listen, Tanner will give that a shot first, but I can't see it working out.
Monte does not have the resume as a head coach I'd like to see, but obviously Ray thinks VERY highly of him, so I'll trust his judgement. I've never heard of anyone that did not like and respect Monte.
Hiring him would be kind of a slap in Clemson's face as well, a nice side benefit. Why would anyone in their right mind leave that wonderful family in the hills????
