Recruiting Forum Football Talk XLVII

[JacketVol]

Fact or speculation? If fact, she gains a lot of respect among many here for doing the right thing.

Speculation Probably giving her too much credit but she would probably be a good dilly to dally in just one time. Maybe twice.

 

[SpringBokVol]

This program won’t be right until the Haslams are not in control.

Sucks.

 

[McGeesPub]

So did Austin Price post that we are looking to Cut now?

 

[31VFL]

Austin Price says we have reached out to Cutcliffe.

 

[DD4ME]

Gotta get some sleep. If I plan to take over the head booster spot I need to be more productive in making millions.

Dilly dilly!

Better still, get Jon Gruden to outright say I am not interested in the UT job.

For a bunch of "hicks" we are tech savvy and well read. They could easily have planted their own version of beav.

The problem is that he was never approached in a capacity that would have allowed him to express his lack of interest. Currie had his guy according to the newest narrative.

I mean, we would've all been ok with "ahh shucks, Gruden still wants to coach in the NFL or work as a TV analyst."

I don't think he was even asked.

Sucks.

Guess power is more important than anything.

Praise the Lord. never needed a trusted Grandpa to make me feel better about the future than now.

What part did the AD play in perpetuating the lie, though? This wasn't just a rabid fanbase desperate for something new. We've been through this enough to have (more) reasonable expectations than would we would otherwise. Wasn't it the AD's job to set their customer's expectations prior to delivering a product?

That’s 100% their job.

If you manage anything, you set expectations. It’s total mismanagement to ignore that aspect.

They didn’t push a lie.. but they didn’t control them. It’s one thing to not address silly rumors. It’s another thing to deliberately allow misinformation to sway your target audience to a point that in hamstrings success. And I’m not blaming the fan base here. You can’t allow expectations to run wild then roll out someone with a losing record at various levels and a shady past.

Defcon 1 in effect? Stage one box Currie's **** up. Stage two call Cut.

Then where in the wide world of sports does all of these damn grumors come from? I mean are their teams of paid trolls?

Phd trolling.

 

[RockyTop85]

Someone on VQ made a good point when it was going to be Schiano. Said they took something that, while a lackluster product for a decade, was still fun and turned it into something that was morally and ethically questionable.

This is how I feel as well.

I don’t know what he knew. I don’t care. I’m a criminal defense attorney. I absolutely believe in due process more than most... when stripping somebody of their liberty. When it comes to making someone the face of the state’s flagship university and paying them millions, proof beyond a reasonable doubt isn’t necessary to step back and say “this isn’t a good idea.”

That’s what Penn State’s admin and fans did to defend Joe Paterno. And it was disgusting.

We may go 0-36 for the next three years and I still won’t give a **** about Pat Forde, Kirk Herbstreet, Dan Wolken or any other moralizing jack ass media mouthpiece. Some things are bigger than football.

 

[Catbone]

Tennessee be like

 

[Aesius]

Who the hell is reaching out to Tee, Brohm, and Cut?

Surely not Currie.

 

[BigTimeVol95]

How much of this could have been avoided if the AD had actually floated Schiano's name as the lead candidate for the job starting when Butch was fired? Maybe they did and we all wrote it off as a joke. Next time they shouldn't be so subtle.

Great point

 

[volatil]

Who the hell is reaching out to Tee, Brohm, and Cut?

Surely not Currie.

I’m sure they listen to Fulmer. Probably not Currie

 

[Nash_Vol97]

I wonder, at this moment, what Currie is doing? Is he back in Knoxville? Is he in a hotel somewhere? Is he thinking about his next move? Must suck to be him right now.

[Specs]

Surely not Currie.

Hell yeah it's currie. He's gonna walk out there wednesday-ish, announce someone, and play like this schiano thing was just overactive media.

Don't believe anything unless you hear it from me!
