Official Jon Gruden Thread XX

[InVOLuntary]

I always thought that was the beginning of the downfall of Tennessee football :banghead2:

The down fall of Tennessee football cane when the AD was placed under the UT Chancellor. Imo

 

[joevol33]

and if you can't beat them then I doubt we can beat Southern Miss. they played each other in Sept this year. Kentucky won 24-17 but statistically Southern Miss won. Neither team could run, 78 to 55 net yards rushing. Southern Miss 300 plus yards passing to <200 for KY. Turnovers looked to be key as SM had 3. first downs were SM19 to 12 for Ky.

I honestly don’t think we’ll win another game, I hope I’m wrong.

 

[VolDefense]

Some of us just don’t fall hook line and sinker for everyone claiming to be an insider, that doesn’t mean we don’t wanna hope for Gruden.

that's fine and I agree, then why not simply ignore his posts. easy solution.

 

[joevol33]

Why do you have to point out Strong is a minority? Why be all racist and whatnot?

Isn’t that my job?

 

[5FingerVolPunch]

The longer Jones is in Knoxville the more I think he's gonna survive the season and possibly be our coach next year. At this point I'm starting to believe they don't want to pony up the cash to buy him out.

Me too, but I'm still hanging on to hope that Haynesworth knows something because of his tweet. I think Leonard Little does too with his response, even though he denied it shortly after. They obviously heard something.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

I give you credit for not backing off. My only question is, will we see you here if it doesn’t happen? To own up to being wrong?

Even if he does show back up once it doesn't happen, how will you know he isn't just making crap up about why it didn't happen?

 

[joevol33]

Fair point.

 

[Volnbeers]

For those who may still doubt LWS, that's almost word for word the exact language of Butch's contract.

his contract is on the internet for all to see.

 

[Volwark]

If you're gonna put your arse out on the internet, you better be sure that people are gonna call you out on it. Comes with the territory.

 

[Hawkpilot]

in the last 10 years we are 26-50 in the SEC. We have a long way to go (no matter who they hire) to begin winning in the SEC.

Penn st. probably thought the same thing.

The irony; why don't you just ignore his?

 

[vols72]

If we can't get Gruden,I wouldn't mind Campbell. Maybe get Kingsbury as OC and maybe a NFL DC. The guy can flat out coach and Kingsbury would have this O firing on all cylinders. Keep Warren at D backs coach upgrade LB coach and D line Coach. Somebody give me some names at Oline coach,I kinda like the idea of Bruce Matthews he would make our line mean and dominant like the 90s. I don't know who we could get at wide receivers coach. Maybe Singletary for lb coach?

Well we know how much AH dislikes butch so maybe something is done sooner than later??.....

I doubt he does cause he has stated it’s done, so if it’s not he has zero excuses.

I remember a certain needing a long way to go also at one point in time. We played them yesterday. The POINT is trying to hire coaches without any real legit success in big time football is not going to cut it. Tennessee's fan base supports UT way to much to have a mid-level coach. The last 2 were WEAK hires and the fan base deserved better, they deserve better NOW. Tennessee fans will stick with their team in loses, but the revenue that UT gets from donors and loyal fans that travel to games needs to be rewarded with a very good staff. Nobody is a slam dunk, WE GET THAT. But at least hire somebody that has a punchers chance against the like of Saban. Alabama's success should be what Tennessee administration strives for. The fanbase is doing their part. The other has not,YET! SOON!!!! Let's get it right! GBO!!!!!

And cam Sutton's "We caught our white whale."

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Fair point.

Also a fair point he could take his own advice.

 

[#1ManningFan]

It won’t happen. LSU will take over Neyland when they come to town. That is all the AD will need to see.

Which makes you so sure? Every weekend we lose we think this is it. Announcement is coming. But here he is still UT coach.

Cam Sutton said something??

That’s true also!

Doubt it. I'm about 90% sure Penn St. isn't even in the SEC.

 

[wildorange]

This team would have a lot better record with a better coach. We need improvement but the cupboard is far from bare. Any good coach should be able to see this. Couple with our resources and fan base no way a good coach would not come at the right price. To say Tennessee has miles to go no matter who is coach really doesn't hold any water at all. Good coaches can turn things around quickly. It has been done before, especially one that has some talent to begin with. This is much more about x and o's than anything else. SOON!!!! GBO!!!! VFL!!!!!

Our AD may not care about winning, but when they lose butts in the seats then they will start to care.

Blue font? Popcorn Sutton is not Cam's Twitter handle.

I didn't know that happened?
