I know this is an old thread, but I always thought if we are going to sing "Dixieland Delight", it would be more fitting for those of us from East Tennessee to change those added lyrics even more during the chorus. I'm all about the "F--k Bama" and the slight uncertainty over "...and...

Go Vols!

Let us fans also hope Tennessee makes a good hire in football, so that the team can achieve greater success and come closer to the success of the 90s. Go Vols! Hopefully, all the sports at Tennessee will do well.

Freak is being very generous. I hope we all get similar opportunities in the future where we can be just as generous to others.

As someone who would love to see Gruden come to Tennessee, if it turned out to not be the case (heaven forbid such a thought), who would the fans in the Gruden thread like to see as the next preferred choice? This does not mean I think Gruden isn't coming or that I don't want him to come. By...

If I can't have Gruden, I would perfectly willing to support a Petersen hire. I did briefly enjoy the Wikipedia page for him saying he was the coach at UT, but it's been changed back. Just make sure the money is good enough for him and the pool for assistant coaches is large enough for him to...

If we went the Petersen route, I agree with many others in this thread that it would be a great hire. If I'm honest, I would start somewhere in the $7.0-7.5 million range around 5-7 years with the typical incentives and bonuses you would offer to a top 5 to top 10 coach in college football. I'm...

I look forward to when the coaching search finishes and we hopefully have a good coach. Like many others have said, UT and their previous poor coaching hires have placed the fanbase near the precipice and people could tune out for good if the administration seems to muff this hire as well. It...

As a long time lurker of the message board, I certainly hope Tennessee makes the right decision here. I would certainly love to see Gruden coach this football team. It would generate a great deal of positive excitement around this program, sometime we could desperately use more of around here...

Best I can hope for is Tennessee realizes it is playing with house money next week and decides to sling around the yard and have some fun. No one expects a win against Georgia so play with the pressure off and nothing to lose. Whether that will actually happen is unknown, though it does seem...

Somehow, I don't doubt that this thread will hit Gruden XV. I certainly possess less of an excitement level that the Grude will coach at UT. However, I have not completely given up that possibility. I am willing to acknowledge the buyout TB is paying to Gruden may stop him and that the last MNF...

If we're down to a choice between Shannon and Steele (acknowledging Dooley may go in another completely different direction), I lean towards Shannon. Back when he was the DC at Miami, his defenses were very good (yes, he had great recruits as well). I like the fact his time at Miami could give...

I'm curious if anyone knows how loud Neyland Stadium can get? Broadcasters talk about Oregon's Autzen Stadium and how LOUD it is there. I'd love it if Tennessee could have a stadium design that maximizes that. I do love Neyland, a great stadium for gameday if not the best. I've read Michigan...

If the presidents didn't vote A&M into the SEC, man, it would really suck to be the Aggies at that point. They would be vilified and crucified by the rest of the Big 12-2 for trying to leave, not that A&M's relationship with Texas could get any worse. That would be hard to imagine having every...

In honor of you, TrueOrange, I'll give you the easier to read post. Explanation in my longer post. My preferred 14th SEC team: 1. Virginia Tech 2. Florida State 3. NC State 4. Oklahoma 5. Missouri Posted via VolNation Mobile
