Official Jon Gruden thread 32.

[SGMVols]

Hyams just screamed about Gruden not coming here. He’s going to look so incredibly stupid when Gruden is announced

He also said no chance at Kiffin all the way up to the very day the news broke that he was hired.

 

[ER Vol]

They're already back tracking this morning

I have a feeling there is a less than 5% chance that Butch gets fired before the end of the season.

Our AD is looking more incompetent by the week. I really hope I am wrong and Currie surprises us SOON....

 

[MBVolFan]

I Got your 6 on this!

I see what you did there. Nice.:rock:

 

[Jake]

The SMU Death Penalty in 1987 didn’t cause as much heartache as this season at UT. At least SMU knew what to expect the following season...much less, every Saturday.

 

[Boca Vol]

Hyams said he talked to Gruden’s best friend and he’s not going to coach in College.

That's BS. Hyams never called me!:loco:

 

[volgr]

Lol...then why are you here if everybody should just accept that we are a bad football team? Check out the recruiting forum...it doesn't start at the end of the year. Firing Butch doesn't fix, but it starts the process.

He has 2 games left at UT. Let it play out.

 

[Squints]

So true, but I do love the high of that hope. My question is, when should be change the name of this thread? I hope to pete it isn't when they trot Brohm to the podium.

I'm out, O U T, if Brohm is trotted to the podium. I can tolerate a lot of things, but not that BS.

 

[newyorkvol]

Let an interim take a shot. It honestly can’t be worse.
And it tells the nation and fan base that we are not accepting this mediocrity.

Don’t get me wrong, I expect we will ride this pathetic coach through vandy. Then when not only the wheels but also the chassis falls off

I get it.
But at this point I tend to believe the “what” certain people say rather than the “when” other people claim. One thing that has been said is that People involved do not want to proceed with an in-season firing. So far that has held up. Compare that to the “when” crowd that said he was leaving after the USCe, Bama, UK, SoMiss, and Mizz games!!!

No way they raise over 300 mil for renovations to trot Brohm out there. I just can’t believe it.

I believe it ends well but would like to stop the hemorraghing.

This.

It really is every week. I think it’s just the only way we can get through the embarrment of the losses, is to believe he will pay for it each Sunday.

 

[John Vol Jones]

Jimmy Hyams is such a condescending *******. He treats his callers like garbage

I completely agree. It gets especially bad during coaching searches. Near the end of the Dooley coaching search, I thought he was gonna explode on a couple callers . It’s like we a bothering him. Drives me nuts.

Brohm isn't going to be the UTHC next year.

 

[FleeceItOut]

It’s going to be so awesome when UT finally fires Butch and trots out Larry Fedora.

 

[wildorange]

If Jones is here after last night, it better be a GREAT reason. Having said that, the hire is the most important thing. I don't think we gain much by putting someone on this staff in charge at this point, but on the other hand staying with Butch doesn't make much sense either. I got tickets next week and the trip has been planned awhile. And guess where I am staying next week? Yep the Holiday Inn at cedar bluff. Oh the irony! We have to get this right, at this point all we can do is hope and pray the the administration and Currie get it DONE and get GRUDEN. SOON VERY SOON!!!!!!! GRUDEN TO TENNEESSEE!!!!!

 

[volgr]

You’re missing the point

No, I'm not. This is a really bad team no matter who coaches the next 2 weeks. Period. Would it be fun to fire Butch and make you feel good short term, sure.

 

[BigOfan]

You are just sucking up in hopes of getting some of her wings!

Wings are good….. However I respect her take on things. Seems to do her homework. A lot of people seem to have their inside sources. My only source is post made by VFLnSFD

 

[Volsfaninva917]

Lol. No one believes he is back next year. Why do that to yourself?

Hubbs said last night that Currie has been resisting boosters to fire Butch

 

[Squints]

Be careful what you convince yourself of. This thread is proof of that very statement. A Brohm-type hire would not surprise me.

My thought has remained the same as far as in-season firing. I think a weight would be lifted off of most of the fans (not you Volgr) and the fans would see that the AD isn't the incompetent a** he is appearing to be with each passing week.

Until they hire Bobo, Mullen, etc...

That's a whole other story as far as incompetence.

He's wrong about a lot of things to. Even people with him will tell him he's crazy. He's not as bad as Adams though

 

[Grayvol4life]

Help us Gruden wan kenobi, your our only hope.

 

[volgr]

Hubbs said last night that Currie has been resisting boosters to fire Butch

And? You interpret that as he wants to keep him? Lol.

 

[Big Orange Rock]

Not the news I️ wanted to wake up to this morning. I️ truly believe we have an inept administration. Prepare for mediocrity and losses vs. LSU and Vandy.

Who are you kidding? I would gladly take mediocrity over the **** show that is Tennessee football at this moment.
