Recruiting Forum Football Talk XLVII

Hutch07 is getting destroyed on VQ lol

They are actually saying this is all part of the Gruden plan!!!!

Wtf! I mean seriously, no one is going to buy into the Gruden **** ever again

 

[VFLBerg]

Brohm has huge buyout?

Looks like $4 million

Bonuses, buyout details revealed in Brohm's Purdue contract

 

[BruinVol]

Gruden clearly has an extremely low opinion of our fan base and does not love the University of Tennessee like some have said on here.

Seriously **** that guy. Get bent.

Currie is going to get blamed for it very soon

 

[Chief Vol 13]

Hutch07 is getting destroyed on VQ lol

Who would have thunk it?

 

[chargervol]

How does every other school do this so much better than we do?

Simple answer, Haslams.


Side note not related to Jave.
Ron and Ziti wanting Gruden didn't cause today to happen.

Invol and Grant saying Mehlen in a thread with about 30 regular fans, wasn't the cause of Florida hiring Mullen instead of us.

The remarks are petty or filled with complete ignorance of how things work. 1 of the 2.

Sorry if you answered already, but is there any chance Currie really is fired over this?

 

[Volwark]

Campbell would be my pick. He was even my pick over Mullen. But I realize we were never gonna pay his buyout, because...

Haslam. We will have to get lucky with a hire, because we're not gonna pay good money for a coach while they're in control. I've sadly just resigned myself to that fact.

I've even given up hope for a good AD, cause Haslam is just going to make sure his guy gets picked.

 

[theutvolunteers]

As he should be, all "insiders" that fed the gruden monster should be

Ban hammer

 

[Nashvegas31]

Report: Dan Mullen was leaning toward taking Tennessee job until Florida swooped in


They are saying Mullen was wrapped up and last minute switch when Florida swooped in.

Now more reason to hate these ***

 

[csprig9]

Wow just can’t admit he showed his ass.

Haha, the 11th hour bull****...just like what supposedly happened in 2012. Newsflash, gruden wasn't an option then either

Perfect. Thanks

 

[Kingston Vol]

I'm wondering who it was that stopped the hire? Because it doesn't look like it was Currie.

Have heard it was Big Jim. They were concerned about the optics re: Bill becoming UT system President with Schiano under his jurisdiction.

 

[John Wick]

"I can promise you I have never condone child rape. Oh, and if you are the AD, it's gonna cost you $8M/year"

Well, we were going to pay Gruden anywhere from 10-12, so I'd shoot for 11.

 

[drvenner]

It shows his moral compass is off. That with sworn testimony is enough to make me think the hire is a bad decision.

What was in the video? For some reason the link takes me to the main video page.

 

[VolsnCards5]

Now more reason to hate these ***

Come on man, you're better than that

 

[Ace]

I am going to bed, but before I do I have just one name for VN: Taggart

 

[HankHill]

Sorry if you answered already, but is there any chance Currie really is fired over this?

I don’t think it’s out of the question. The question is if anyone currently on payroll would want to step in and make the biggest decision (hire) of their life...first day on the job.

 

[engineerVOL]

I think it's highly probable it's already happened.

 

[VolsnCards5]

I meant cost Currie $8M/year. UT still gonna have to pay me $10M

 

[McGeesPub]

We didn't behave like this for Dooley, and GS is a far better coach than he is. We wouldn't have behaved like this for Bobo, who is a far worse option than GS as far as football goes. It's just easy to dump on us, so the lazy media does it.

Just like when Forde insinuated inherent racism against Cuonzo being the reason he left, yet so many people wanted Shaka Smart, some wanted Danny Manning, and so on.

 

[drylo]

Yep - if it's Brohm or anyone else, this fanbase is going to go twice as hard for the guy to prove our only concern was the Penn State stuff with Schiano.

I sure hope so. And I do think that’s possible.

 

[BruinVol]

Fulmer would

Step up to the plate, Hank. Your time to shine.

Shiano imploring his defense to go for the knees on a kneel down with 4 seconds left

 

[InVOLuntary]

He should've been fired in 2015 or been allowed to walk after 2014. We couldn't really fire him with a lame duck AD last season.

That's probably the only thing that saved him.
