All I'm gonna add is this....

"Five years ago, a member of the UT Board of Trustees told me Tennessee offered Gruden $5 million a year for six years – a $30 million guarantee."

Per Jimmy Hyams

Why we believe, because it all makes too much sense not to. Now the truth, which most of us knew, is coming out that the VOLS did indeed offer Gruden the job in 2012, he was close to saying yes but a few wrinkles messed the deal up. If the VOLS were gonna go after a home run hire again... why not go back to Gruden, come to the table with exactly what he wants, and do everything to land him this time! I don't understand why this doesn't make sense to people. Vegas even sees it, they have him as the #1 prospect to coach the VOLS in 2018... Vegas Knows, VOLS Alumni know, the Boosters know, and everything else points to this! I'm sure something could go wrong, because honestly it is the University of Tennessee... until then I'm a believer that it's gonna happen. 🙂

Really should've got Blackburn. I was dead set against Fulmer, but even Fulmer would've been better than this.

Terrible. Absolutely terrible.

Ladies and gentlemen...

We got the wrong AD.

Per LA Vol (who has ties to the AD) in the RF:

The only time I've left Neyland "wanting a better fan experience" was after a loss. There's a better way to fix that than taking out half the south end zone.

Nobody leaves at halftime because of the stadium.......

When I saw the expensive seats empty after halftime of the UGA game, I knew Butch was done and told my friends that at the time.

If the cheap seats are full and the expensive ones are empty, you've got a major problem!

Hey I've been on VN since 2010 Lost my last handle... AllVol0773 i believe it was... Couldn't remember password and didn't have access to that email either. I created this handle n 2015... I'm just really busy. Mostly don't have time to post. Although when it gets juicy on the hill I can't help myself. VN is addicting during these times...

Grudometer at 10%, down from 25. 10based on pure hope. Pretty clear that of this whole coalition of big boosters strong arming with their financial support was more than talk, we wouldn’t be looking at 340mm in spending on deck. But we are... and it’s not because a booster battle.

Business as usual. If we end up with a coach that will win championships, it will be because things went our way.

Are we all living the same nightmare? It's all about the fan experience at Neyland? I don't care about the damn seats because when the team looks great I stand pretty much the entire team cheering and yelling and having a great time. Championships should always be the goal but for some reason at UT no one cares about that. Thanks again Haslam for screwing us with your AD choice! I just would like to know where all the money for this renovation is coming from if this hire is the dumpster fire that is Tennessee football currently.
