|  Coaches for TUF 10
Has anyone heard Rampage and Lyoto being tapped as coaches for the next season of TUF?
I really hope not, just because it will take these guys out of action until probably December. And while both fighters have been through long waits like that before I would be surprised if either of them welcomed another long wait so soon after their most recent (Rampage waited 9 months between Hendo and Griffin, Lyoto waited a similar amount of time between Tito and T. Silva).

I hope they don't do this either, but I can see it happening. I know Rampage has stated since his fight with Griffin that He doesn't want to take that much time off between fights, so who knows. Like someone else said in another thread, the language barrier would be a problem for Machida's team. Sopmething else to take into account is that Lyoto has a very, very unique style that probably would be harder to teach to a team of guys who train a little more conventionally. You would be asking guys to almost change their styles completely which would either show some success, or none at all.

I'd like to see them do another "Comeback" season. They don't need coaches that way, so no one is held up.

I was thinking about another "Comeback" TUF today. I think it could work. It wasn't that bad.
But I'd like to still see Rampage/Lyoto try and become coachs.

With these fights coming right around the corner its a shame they couldnt do BJ and Kenny since Evans and Page just got thrown out the window.

Rampage just did a season with Forrest. Although Dana White said the coaches are already lined up.. I'm thinking it's rampage vs. lyoto machida as the coaches, with them fighting in december..

I'd like to see them hold off a bit, maybe wait and see if they could set up a Lesnar/Crocop superfight and TUF down the road. Could be interesting.
I'd like a Comeback season again too.

I think instead of having active fighters as coaches they should have set coaches. Like Chuck as one. That would give him an active role in the UFC for awhile, and have some other recently retired fighter as the other set coach. And just use those two for the rest of the TUF's
