I'm sure he'll do well there. Tulsa has elevated itself from a doormat career-killer to a stepping stone program.

they are going to miss the assistant coaches too. About 2 years ago it began to unravel when Malzhan left. That 2008 Tulsa Coaching Staff has guys all over the BCS map now-and they were the ones that built the program-it was one of the youngest staff in the NCAA. Can Blankenship rebuild the staff most of which went to Pitt and the OC to Clemson. Another guy is at Vandy. I forgot where there DC from 2008 is but I think it is the SEC.

Tulsa starting to lose recruits-that big ole 6-4 WR Keyarris Garrett is now showing HIGH interest in Pitt and is visting next weekend. I saw where Graham stated that Pitt which still focus on Texas

They have not made a correction so I would imagine he is actually going to be a naked head coach.

As I recall, when Graham left his last coaching job, he took some of his best commitments with him.

While I know most on here can't stand the MOB, they did a pretty nice tribute to Graham the following year....
