I couldn't agree more. I believe the Hart/Cheek admin really dropped the ball. They let the good opportunities slip away and I'm sure this wasn't a booster pull at all. He was never in play until the last few days. And I really think Hart made this hire out of desperation.

haha. this is absolutely ridiculous. seriously?!?! welcome to more sub-par seasons...everyone has better coaches in the sec...i guess the only good thing for this hire is he actually has a winning record.. well i edited it because i wanted to add...i should of said "had" winning seasons...

I don't know all the coaches available but I am sure there are still coaches available. I'm sure tressell would be great. Even if we get the sanctions to come along with it. It would take Tennessee a few years to be good anyways.

You made a good point in Gruden. No wonder he wanted full control of the department. Maybe all the coaching candidates are seeing the dysfunction. Wonder why Hart got fired from FSU? Lol

Agreed. Becoming nervous about the announced hire.

I can almost guarantee that we will have to google the guys name that we hire. It will be some lame Derek Dooley hire again because so many coaches are afraid to risk their career at Tennessee. It's not that it's a bad place to coach just that when they look for other jobs and people see a...

Yes. People are afraid to come coach here because its become a dumpster fire. This has become the school where coaches come to get tarnished. Look at who they have to play against tho...miles, saban, spurrier

I feel like this has become a torch other people thread. How about the topic? Coaching rumors and speculation. Not, bashing one another. Real rumors and speculation like: Gundy did interview at tenn, but I think we all know he won't come because he's at his alma mater. And he's done it with...

Everyone starts with a small name before they become a big name. Unless you're dale Earnhardt jr haha

I would love some fire from a coach like Gundy. "I'm a man!"--Gundy That's the stuff I am talking about, but correctly stated he is not leaving his alma mater

Vegas odds on who the next Tennessee coach will be: Butch Davis (3/1) Larry Fedora (15/4) Jim Tressel (9/2) Dan Mullen (5/1) Al Golden (21/4) Jimbo Fisher (7/1) Saw this on another post. Notice no gruden!

I am not on the gruden wagon either. All I want is someone with a winning record at their current school. I've heard BUtch Davis was an option. Any one else heard that?

I feel like if Hart did land someone like Stoops that VN would be disappointed after all of the talk about Gruden. Everyone wants Gruden that bad "Oh...its just Bob Stoops..." btw, not saying he is on the line, but just making a point. And no I am not out for Harts head. I think he's doing...

I really believe the truth of the matter is that Tennessee is not going to hire someone worth recognition. Here is my opinion: 1.) If I have to Google his name to find out that he coached at Louisiana-Tech or some other school that's not worth mentioning...He is not our guy 2.) If he has a...
