I remember boro being repeatedly "verified" as legit in 2012. Gruden was a sure thing.

I'll believe it when I see it.

Until then, embrace the SWAGGERFIELD.

I doubt 10 is the number, but to be honest, what's the difference between 7.5 and 10?

If Gruden is named coach, ticket sales, apparel, and every thing else start getting sold...and fast.

Which one? The one that started as a true freshman and is very talented but hurt right now or the one that is a back up right now but is a top linebacker in the league in tackling efficiency?

Oh you mean the walk on that for some reason Butch loves.

That. Or the High rated DTs that they stay in the LBs lap a lot of the game. The all world juco DE who has no bend at all on the edge. The WRs who couldn’t get separation against umass. Every OL except Trey Smith. I could go on and on. Is some of it on development? Absolutely. But besides gaulden, Kelly, and at times bituli...there isn’t a lot of good players out there.

What about Atlanta Vol? You know what he's done on this board.

I know he’s given money to OB. That doesn’t make him legit insider source. And he could just as easily be getting trolled by beaver.

I don’t buy every story he brings to the board and I’m talking about stuff outside of Gruden/beaver talk.

LWS is the only “inside” source I trust.

Nobody knows what is happening. I love all the inside info that you guys believe and act like you know it for a fact. Matthews said they haven’t even made a decision on Butch yet. I trust him more than message board “insiders”

If you really believe this, why do you freak out at every little nugget of "inside info" that gets thrown around on here? Do you really trust Matthews that much, or does what he said just fit your agenda atm? FWIW, Matthews has been very outspoken in saying we have the right guys in place in the AD to make a good hire this time around. Do you trust that?

Currie could be doing a great job behind the scenes right now or he could be bungling it. We likely won't know for at least a month or so (and then for a few years depending on how the new coach works out).

There's no use in jumping to conclusions about it right now and calling for everybody to be fired just because you're incapable of being patient.

Will be honest I thought Gruden was always a pipe dream in 2012 but after the fact while many called it BS I tend to believe there was more to it then most now believe. Still skeptical this year.

People seem to think rich people are incapable of being trolled.

Either all these guys are liars or are being fooled. It's playing out the exact same way as 2012. People's will to believe outweighs their common sense.

I am skeptical of anyone who is in the loop with the actual decision makers and then brings sensitive information to a message board. Just doesn’t add up. Either being fed bs and don’t realize it or they are just making up stuff or embellishing cause other “insiders” make them feel left out.

LWS is a rare breed. Doesn’t hide his identity and always shoots straight. Brings solid info.

I feel like 90% of the football forum is going to be devestated at the hire we end up with.

I think 90% of the fans will be devastated when we trot out Mike Bobo. I will be one of them. I have no faith that the UT administration can or is will to make a good, let alone a homerun hire.

did ya'll see where Currie tried to tweet out support for the tennis team? He got obliterated by fans about firing butch and hiring a coach before worrying about tennis... This type of thing is starting to confirm that he is either smart and smoke screening, or an absolute clueless idiot.

Or he could be doing his job as AD by supporting all sports and was willing to endure the asshats he knew would tweet at him.

Bobo could be announced and within 3 weeks 90% would talk themselves into believing. 70% immediately after his presser and the other 20 within a few weeks of listening to the sports animal.
