I don’t like the sound of your post and don’t like what you’re implying. Yes, I’m new. Was a always a lurker, never a poster in 2012.

AV came on here and asked if anyone that’s a vet or has young children would like tickets to the game. I asked, he gave. There was a delivery mix up, he gave again.

I’m as shocked as you. Kindest thing to ever happen to my family. He’s a total stranger to me.

So, you can stop now. Ok?

That was TOTAL BS perpetrated by the Tide insiders to lower expectations of the idiot fan base, just like UGA did when Smart took over. They had a LOT of talent, far more than the Vols have had most of the last 10 years.
QB's: John Parker Wilson and Greg McElroy
RB's: Roy Upchurch, Glen Coffee, Ali Sharif

And a host of others that made NFL rosters including Justin Britt, Antoine Caldwell, William Vlachos, Mike Johnson, Wallace Gilberry, Brandon Deaderick, Lorenzo Washington, Josh Chapman, Rolando McClain, Simeon Castille, Kareem Jackson, Cory Reamer, Marquis Johnson, Justin Woodall, Javier Arenas and Rashad Johnson.

I am not sure what it sounds like he is implying to you. He says you had a fairy tale ending. He said there was a n issue with UPS. It does not sound like he is saying anything negative, just asking other peoples story's. Or I could be misunderstanding the tone of his post.

Well considering the basketball team is a major part of the athletics and are in a tournament, I would expect Currie to be there for it.

I think I recall Currie saying this would be his single focus. The Basketvols can handle one tourney without Currie there while we get a coach.

They sucked until saban got there. He turned them around. Gruden can turn Tennessee around too. Turnarounds happen often now, we just need coaches that can develop talent. With the right staff recruits will flock here. FACT! SOON! GRUDEN TO THE HILL!

Actually 5-7 MAY get us into a bowl game. Nebraska made one 2 years ago at 5-7...and a few others have made it as well. UT is a fanbase they would love to invite to a bowl. Just sayin'. It's embarrassing to accept a bid at 5-7..imo...but don't be surprised if we pull off a miracle vs Vandy we get a bid.

You need to read it again. It's very clear what he is implying. But this is what the guy wants.... He is trolling

This. They weren’t his personal seats. When we talked last night about the UPS mix up, he said he was going to call some people. Then he said the AD had us covered. Boy, did they ever.

I just have to share what this night was like.

We get there, pick up up the tickets and go through the gate, and there’s greeters putting arm bands on us. I look at my husband, all bewildered and he says, “Whoa”. We’ve never been to a UT football game and needed arm bands.

They usher us to the elevators and we step out to this awesome lobby. My girls were like, “Whoa”. There’s a Calhoun’s booth set up slicing off brisket. There’s a panini booth in the other corner. TV’s everywhere with tables and chairs. It looks like a swanky club and I guarantee our faces looked like we didn’t belong. There were even greeters in the bathroom!

We get to our seats and they are perfect, Section F, right on the 50 yard line. My girls faces when they saw the enormity of Neyland is something I’ll never forget. The jets flying over, the band, they were amazed by everything.

AtlantaVol, my girls said to tell you “Thank you”. They said they had the best time ever and can’t wait to go back. My husband and I can’t thank you enough.

Rain or no rain, this was a night to remember.

What's wrong with it? If Gruden is scared to take the team as it is and isn't up for the challenge like we all think he is, then we don't need the guy. If you listen to Clay Travis, he would say that's mosquito d*ck thinking. Tennessee needs to make a helicopter d*ck hire. I stand by what I said

Edit:

Apologies, been drinking, re-read your post and I overreacted. Alcohol does that. But Travis is a bag of feminine products.

When the coaching search is done there is going to be a lot of people eating crow or answering for their trolling.

After 2012, I’m just hoping for a good hire, whether that is Gruden or someone else.
