We don't need anyone or their opinions of us! As Tennessee fans, we must remember these people when we're back on top!

VFLs vs everybody! Let's fight!

Easiest to calculate would be treble damages. Multiply actual damages times 3.

In my example with knuck, you would have to figure out what his actual damages are. Knuck quit his job. How much was he making? How much will it cost him to find a new job? Will he make less money at the new job? What about costs of relocating? Add all the actual costs up and multiply by 3 for treble damages.

Are we paying Gruden or Schiano?

And in Schianos case how much would that be? Should be very minimal.

Thanks but not worried about him. Anyone coming in here trying to call me out after the **** show yesterday is just sad. It's not about me or exile or anyone else. It's about the program. Not going to lie, but I was told of some disgusting news tonight. I cannot and will not repeat. It has really hit me how bad the AD is, worse than I thought. I was very optimistic earlier. Now just here. Like Parker said, don't let up tomorrow. Keep it going. I told someone earlier I wish I never said 100% because of Haslam. I take it back. I am glad I said it, it was true and factual. Gruden signed and was going to be our next coach. How it went down is just depressing heartbreaking for so many people, the town, and region. With that I am going to sleep.


Keep it between the ditches y'all

Wow. That's heartbreaking that he actually signed....

Does the University of Tennessee even know what a public relations department is??? Even the SEC network today was talking about how out of touch our administration was with it's own fans. To me a fan base that supports and helps bring in top revenue has been getting it's nose stuck up at it for quite awhile now. When Joe Johnson and Doug Dickey types were here the University ran smooth. The last 10 years or so it's been all about Jimmy Haslam and him having all his puppets lined up throughout all departments. It's time for UT to stand up and be a real university, it's sickening that a small number overall are crippling the potential of the university all in the name of POWER! Full out war from this fan, I can't do it myself but I don't have to contribute to people that are working against the place I love. They need to GTFO!

I just saw SVP's take on this debacle and he pretty much called out everyone. The fans for expecting too much...but left open that our motives may have been leaning on the PSU stuff. Currie..for not realizing what the outrage would be from the fan base....but also mentioned how Florida got turned down twice...but eventually made a good hire with Mullen. Basically the gist was we all want a big time hire and think we deserve one..but there aren't enough home run hires to be had. That was my take on the piece.

Mine too, actually thought it was objective untill his guest came in.

Really? Someone in the AD with that kind of baggage?

It’s just the way I read it.
There are a lot of things that could make a persons stomach turn but considering what CGS was centered around that’s what I gathered. I’m probably wrong and it wouldn’t be the first time. It wouldn’t surprise me either. A lot of sick people out there.

Birds of a feather flock together

This whole fiasco is sucking all of my interest in cfb away. The idiotic spoiled children in the NFL have ruined that for me and all this power struggle among boosters ruins cfb for me. It's not about all the good things that used to make cfb fun,it's all about those who have $$$$ and their ability to control things. I know it's not isolated to UT, and that's what makes me sick thinking about it. The game has lost its innocence and for that, I'm quickly losing all interest.

VP also said that it was good to go big on a hire. One of the most reasonable evaluations of the situation I have heard. Reece can stick it--stuck up for Schiano. I guarantee you there is NO WAY he would have hired Schiano knowing he was linked, fairly or unfairly, to the Sandusky thing. He does not understand what went down and what we have been thru the last 10 years.

We are about where Bama was when they fired Mike Price.
