I moved back to East TN for family. Travel back to Nashville last night for a work event -- couldn't wait to leave.

Jimmy Hyams is basically saying hire a lower tier coach. Saying hire a coach to win not just a big name to please the fans.
If you don't get a big name (a proven winner) then its gonna be the same and they will lose

Why are y'all dogging on Nashville?

 

[VolNExile]

Going to ask this again.. I think it got lost in the latest troll bash.

Speaking of Dooley.. I know they had a press conference at 2 on Sunday when he was fired. Does anyone remember when the release was made that they were going to have a press conference?

If you (or someone) remembers the date and will post it here, I'll go look on one of the Original Original Jon Gruden threads to see.

I would imagine that there would have been a ton of OMG-it's-happening posts when the conference was announced.


edit to add: nm, I found the date. Checking now.

Yeah, like others have said, Nashville is all orange. Live about 30 miles east of Nashville and my estimate is 80% of the fans here are Tennessee fans.

This.

It’s the same all across middle Tennessee.

Find a lower tier coach to win in the SEC, don't try for a big time hire? Little mans expectations and little man dreams. That is Hyams in a nutshell, low exectations all the time. I quit listening to him for anything a long time ago.:rock: SOON!!!!! GRUDEN TO THE HILL!!!!!

If the Titans are so beloved, why can’t they get 50,000 to watch them play. There were more people at the Vol Walk last Saturday than the Titans would draw for a playoff game.

?

Attendance today will be 65k+. .

Trey Wallace just tweeted or Im'd or whatever you call it on periscope that the conversation between Butch and Currie after the game was not pleasant. I'm very new at the periscope thing so it could be a fake account I don't know.

Around 2 weeks ago, there was a huge argument between the two at their offices. All non staff were kept away.

Jimmy is wrong again. Surprise surprise

Do you ever sleep VG? I realize eviscerating trolls is a 24/7 job but a girl has to get her beauty sleep.

My aunt is not doing well. We were called to her house at 1:30 this morning. She's still hanging on, bless get heart. My cousin has it hard right now.

Ftr, I haven't done anything. Ignore the trolls and they'll go away.

Morning DTO.
I hope you are feeling better today

Where you be going?

Lyles. A little south of Dickson.

If Butch was on the Butch Jones show this morning, am I wrong in thinking he is not being fired today?

No correlation.

Dooley was on his Sunday morning show before his firing was announced that same day I believe

November 18, 2012. My search thing is not working right for the threads.

I don't think Kelly is a good fit in the SEC. But that is just my opinion, many factors in my thinking on him. SOON! GRUDEN TO TENNESSEE!!!!!

I just dont know how you could make a statement like this. I dont think we will get Kelly, but he could coach anywhere in CFB. He is just waiting for the right job. Gruden is not a sure fire success if he is hired. He would create a lot of excitement for sure.

You never know. It's broadcast on Sunday mornings, but it's taped Saturdays after the game.

It used to be pre recorded right after a game. I’m assuming it still is.

 

[RagingOrange]

I swear Bob Kiesling just did an eye-roll and mouthed "Soon.....".

The radio show last night toward the end...Keslimg was barely able to mumble along...

When your radio crew runs out of ish to say ish is bad.

Speaking of Ish...howd that kid get his name?

 

[VolGee4]

Why would Butch and Currie get into an argument? There's nothing to argue about. Just fire him.

I'm very sorry to hear that! Peace upon your family.

(someone did do something --the post count dropped by 10-12 or so. )

At this point, they could pre-record most of Butch’s commentary before the game.
