I agree. But Currie could be using the false info to weed out the emotes that can't keep their mouth ****. He is new to the position.

As I said earlier, this isn't a matter of national security. A misinformation campaign sounds like a bad plot point, not a real thing concerning a FOOTBALL COACH.

I don't want to name the other poster because he/she has been relatively quiet with short nuggets - & I want them to keep posting. Also, the connecting dots are somewhat tenuous, but combined with my OCD reading of this board, my woman's intuition, & my hopes/dreams for UT football, it's enough for me. Let's face it, we won't know for sure until we know for sure. However, I think MIT's screen name is DIRECTLY connected to one of the $ sources, so that makes me think he does know what he's talking about.

You read my mind exactly!

Look at it this way. He's the CEO of a company that brings in over $100 million a year. He's limited in who he can talk with because of contractual agreements. You don't fire The person in charge of the operation of the $100 million dollar company until you have every duck in a row, or you risk even bigger downfalls. I can assure you that Currie will have someone named within the week when Butch is finally let go.

So we've pretty much established that MIT is someone connected to Ergen and DISH and Bubba could be Ergen's son who is a big wig at a Venture Capitalist Co. in California. :) They did both pop in about the same time.
This is neat.

We will not hear anything solid until Butch is fired.

NAILS,
Your dead on and nothing is happening.

Currie looks like a deer in the headlights.

We still have big problems with things that Cheeks started and the days of Dickey and JJ are long gone.

They don't even care about the women's BB program anymore.

What good HC (Gruden) would want to deal with the problems that we still have, even though, Cheeks was shown the door????

These internal problems are way above Currie's head and control.

Butch will not be given a pass to lose the LSU game.... IF he was told he could be back..IF IF IF he was told that, he would have to run the table completely. That is ridiculous to hear that as long as he wins every game BUT LSU... that's the biggest game for the vols from here on out, if anything he would have to win that game. I'm convinced butch is gone no matter what. The ad and university will
Lose millions if he isn't. Knowing our fan base, we will not show up until he is gone like we did for Dooley final games.

This is what my insider says...

If Butch runs the table except for the LSU game, then he will be the Vols HC coach in 2018.

And MY insider says that Butch hired this guy from MIT to revamp the offense, and that he drew up this play called "Spider 2 Y Banana BMW Golf Course LA" that literally cannot be stopped. Guaranteed TD every time.

Odds of UT winning the NC just went to 1:1.

UK is dead meat.

Go Vols.

This MIT guy just might be very much connected, I am starting to think he is closely related to the big money. And then again he may not know anything,kinda doubt that though.

No, but when there are legal consequences and real money at stake then you do what you have to.

I'm sure the back channels are humming right along, but it's like coaches that chest at recruiting. Currie must keep himself at a distance from all of it. Nothing can lead back to him even though he is well aware of what is going on.

How would it look for Currie, first year on the job, openly negotiating with another coach while Jones is employed? His name would be mud after the lawsuit.

Take that one step further. If Currie has to be covert in all this, with his ass on the line, why would he NOT float out some bad info to weed out the rats?

He has to be able to trust the people around him in order to keep this quiet. And that doesn't just apply to negotiating with Gruden but any coach before Butch is fired.

How many times did Saban publicly deny the bama job? Harbaugh? And those positions were open at the time. So how important do you think it is to be quiet about this situation?

I find two things here hard to believe

1. Anyone thinks Butch will run the table
2. A five loss sec coach can keep his job at UT

If that is true this administration thinks the fans are gullable as all get out. And they would be gravely wrong. SOON!!!! GBO!!!!!

You see it as misinformation. I look at it like someone lying to avoid hassle.

I’m not a conspiracy theorist, but someone has shut the leak of info down completely. There is literally nothing getting out of the AD now
