Ainge just said on his show he is hearing several of our larger booster ("Name on the building type" and those are his words) are telling Currie before we donate we need to see that you (Currie) are committed to winning with the next hire.

This is pretty out of character for Ainge.

He also did say Grudemonium is like a pink cloud haha......But I thought his comments on boosters were pretty interesting. Especially with what we believe happened yesterday.

Wait, what do we believe happened yesterday?

I don't want Frost, or any other young dynamic upstart. If UT was a young dynamic upstart that would be ok. We're not that. We are a blue-blood legacy SEC power, with facilities and funding to rival anyone in the country. We've moved away from seeing ourselves that way because of our self-inflicted decade of misery. It's time to change the perception in the same fashion that Alabama did.

I want an established, proven, championship level coach who will compete for championships against the best our conference has to offer. Who my list includes is irrelevant...but it doesn't include anybody at a current mid-major program, with less than 3 years of D1 experience, or who has started being spoken of because they are beating up on the scrubs at a non-P5 conference.

I still hold us to a higher standard than that....even if the powers that be don't seem to. I'll continue to, or I'll cease to care.

Solid.

Boro, I value your opinion and insight. Who would be your head coach choices, if not Gruden?

I agree with you. I just don't Want to.

Much of my extended family are Dawg fans. I am on a family Facebook group messenger with them, and last night they were offering all manner of sage advice on the coaching search while crowing about Kirby.

"You should get a proven coach, like Norvell or Fuente or Frost!"

I kid you not, that's what they said. In between posting GIFs of Fromm and Chubb and Michel...

Wish the powers that be had to sit through extended familial humiliation, might get them to make a move quicker.

I can certainly agree with that logic.

I still think Frost is on the rise in a way that is reminiscent of Meyer, but I appreciate your stance.
