"our football program has the history, the facilities, the tradition, and the resources, to play with ANYONE, ANYTIME, and that's what we're gonna do again. this is an important time in our history.. our first job is to turn around our football program. our football teams in recent years have struggled for a variety of reasons, but through it all we have been supported by the most passionate fan base in the country. THESE GREAT FANS DESERVE TEAMS THAT MAKE THEM PROUD. it will not be easy and it will take some time but we will succeed. we first must find us a coach who WANTS TO BE AT TN, who APPRECIATES the unique opportunity that we have to offer at this very special place at this historical time, and WHO IS DRIVEN TO WIN AT THE HIGHEST LEVEL in college football. the kind of head coach that WILL HONOR OUR UNIVERSITY'S VALUES, WILL BE PROUD TO REPRESENT OUR STATE, and be a role model for our student athletes. I have been a part of the university of TN athletics program when it's been at it's best. I have seen what honest communication, trust, and hard work achieves. it is my mission to lead our entire athletic dept. in a way that honors our university's legacy, and insist on excellence.. I'm asking all of our fans, our alumni, student athletes, and coaches, let's go have fun WINNING CHAMPIONSHIPS."
sure hope he gets it right, a lot of bold statements in there..
