Cutcliffe Not Contacted Yet

According to Tennessee AD Mike Hamilton, Vols OC David Cutcliffe has not been contacted by any schools in regards to a head coaching vacancy. Cutcliffe, who coached Eli Manning and Deuce McAllister during his six full seasons at Ole Miss (44-29 record), had been mentioned by some as candidate for the job.

There are some concerns, however about Cutcliffe's health—he left an assistant job at Notre Dame in 2005 and spent a year out of coaching after undergoing a triple bypass in 2005. Ironically, his leave of absence at Notre Dame provided a job opportunity for Duke OC Peter Vaas, who filled Cutcliffe's former position as the Fighting Irish's QBs Coach.

UPDATE (12/4): Cutcliffe told the N&O that he wants to get back into head coaching and that he'd be receptive to such an offer.
