Some of you people are pansies already scared of Florida if Frost goes there. He’s beat a whooping 1 power 5 team and it was Maryland for god’s sake.

That’s whats wrong with Tennessee football

I can think of a lot of things wrong with Tennessee football.

Fans not wanting a certain coach to go to a rival school because they feel he would be successful is pretty far down my list. JMO

In the same 5 year span Florida got fed their own butt by Louisville, no bowl, BIRMINGHAM Bowl trophy, ate their own butt again in the Citrus and an OUTBACK Bowl trophy. I understand the jealousy. :lol:

And two east titles. And yet, they fired their coach because they want to win championships. Meanwhile, we're.... uh, I don't know what the heck we're doing but it isn't working, thats for sure.

I would put money on Taggart being the guy that Florida announces as their next head coach. Oregon isn't going to make it to a big bowl game this year so he will just up and leave after their game against Oregon State.

Scott Frost to Nebraska.

You believe everything you read or just the things that you don't want to be true? Do I need to link you some quotes where other people had Norvell at the top for them?

Austin Price isn't the go to guy for UT coaching search news much less Florida. Not surprised you are buying it. It fits your hashtags.

To answer your question this is what’s wrong.

2 LSU 84-27
3 UGA 80-34

No, it fits what has been reality for us. Florida makes a good decision while we're doing nothing.

I applaud your optimism. I lost mine after Florida. Hopefully Currie will give it back to me, but I doubt it.

Do you think they would've fired him if he had beaten GA and was going to win the east again? Nope. Back to back east titles and they found a way out because they want to be elite.

A lot of truth to this.

Florida AD is one of, if not the, best run in college sports. Pains me to say it.

Dude, it is fake news. Clear as day without a cloud in the sky. National guys with real connections would leak that faster that you can blink and there isn't a single thing in the media about it. Not a single word. Fake news.

Sorry, I am freaking out a little bit. But I think we can all agree that the tea leaves don't bode well for us right now.

Can anyone truly say that, regardless of what you hope might happen, that you approve of John Currie's handling of this coaching transition up to this point?
Click to expand...

I, for one approve. He's being very professional about it. Just because we don't know every detail doesn't translate into "he's fumbling this hire". That's just a knee jerk reaction by impatient fans.

He's keeping everything behind closed doors, and all these rumors are just that, rumors.

Now if we end up hiring Joe Smo from cal tech poly community college, then it's time to FREAK.

I don't have much doubt, because of his handling of the baseball hire. Think that was a great hire. But Footvall is a different beast all together and so are its fans

They're committed to doing nothing, because no matter what, vol fans keep showing up and padding their wallets. Its all they care about.

Florida fans are front runners. If they aren't winning, and the team isn't exciting, their fans don't show up. So they take action, because they have to in order to keep the butts in the seats. Vol fans loyalty hurts us because we show up no matter what. It's admirable, but harmful at the same time.

Lol no, Florida fans were showing up even on their 4-8 season. They were having packed houses this year even though most UF fans didnt like Mac. They didn't fire him because the stadium was empty😂😂

We better make a big hire or we're about to get ran for 15 years

Don't worry. Mike Bobo will do fine here competing against Saban, Smart, and Frost, and we'll only have to pay him 3.5 million a year! The AD can save money on the hire and still make big bucks because Vol fans will keep showing up!

I can respect you coming out and backing him. But my disapproval doesn't come from impatience or a personal desire to know what's going on. It arises from the fact that his silence and insistence on doing things on his own timeline is damaging the program right now.

Since Urban they’ve hired two failed HC’s. We’ve hired two and an incomplete. When you’re tying the rock to your neck check that part.
