Tommy West talks about the Memphis firing

I think Tommy has a point here, but Memphis fans are going to look at it the same way we looked at Bowden's complaints about facilities.

These opinions are not necessarily those of the Proprietors of Shakin' The Southland.

Give 'Em Hell Tommy

I always liked Tommy. I hate that he was given the Clemson job when he obviously was not ready to be a big-time college head coach and was chosen to be a Danny clone. I hope he gets a decent job offer next year.

I dont see him coaching this next season, he still didnt win at a mid-major.

Not As A Head Coach...

I think he’s proven that the head coaching route may not be for him….even though I think he did the best he could at Memphis. But he deserves at least a shot as a position coach at a major school, possibly leading to a DC position somewhere down the line. Bobby Robinson gave this guy an opportunity he wasn’t prepared for, for all the wrong reasons. But I never questioned his gameday coaching….his recruiting lacked a lot, though….
