If I can be a "some of you", I wish it to take as long as it needs. Among other things, this is also about Little VFL's and those not yet conceived regardless of the outcome of the coup !!

Why aren't the boosters getting this out to all media outlets? I guarantee the average UT fan has no idea that this university is run by the corrupt evil Haslam family! This goes beyond football hires too- and if Bill becomes UT president as he wishes, we are doomed. They have to be stopped!

One week ago, we were all anxiously awaiting today. Gruden was going to be announced and the SEC world was going to be out on notice. My how things can change so drastically so quickly.

It feels lot like being on the receiving end of a bad breakup. Going to take a while to realize that dream is really over.

That is EXACTLY what they're doing.

Waiting until the annoying peasants go back to their huts so that they can continue business as usual.

Not entirely true this time. Unlike 2012, I think fellow big money boosters are fed up. After having Currie rammed down their throats and now this stab in the back...I'm hoping they have drawn a line in the sand.

My opinion? Until (1) everyone hears and understands what has happened for far too long with the undue influence of a couple of boosters over the UT AD and how it has dragged down Tennessee tradition and (2) a meaningful change is made.

This is our program, not theirs!

We need a organized march to the HILL! We need game day attendance, that would change things. The media would be all over it. The marches leaders needs to address the key issues to the media front and center! That would do it!!!!!

Has anybody mentioned the five million dollar buyout of John Currie? Not sure if that is accurate but that is what was reported this morning on FSN

Somebody needs to paint the rock with something to the effect of Haslams stay away from our athletic programs. We don't want you anymore.

I have seen a lot of Haslam hate on these threads but not sure if the public at large is aware of the damage that family has done.

Yes, everyday The Rock needs to say "We approve of no coach till Currie/Haslam are out".

It's an individual that some think has been full of **** but there are those that believe he has played an important part and still plays that part !
Yeah that's cryptic but that's the way some of us roll as does the Beav !!

I was told about 3 weeks ago that Currie and Butch had a conversation regarding the possibility that he will not be the Coach next year. Butch was pretty adamant during it that he would “get ever penny” of the buyout. I don’t see how UT could get out of paying him.

Your going to be even more entertained when you realize boosters aren’t putting up $12 million for Butch boys buyout to get PJ ****ing Fleck. We got our white whale and the Tennessee is returning to its rightful place on top.

Because they have the money to wait anyone out. My brother got screwed in a business deal by Big Jim and threatened to sue to recover his losses. Jim said go ahead. I'll keep you tied up in court so long it will bankrupt you. That's the kind of man pulling the strings in all of this. Makes me ill...

It's not a matter of them waiting us, the fans out. It's a matter of us the fans keeping enough public pressure on to 1. Prevent Currie from sliding another Haslam Hire in, and 2. Buying time for boosters like AV to do what they need to do behind the scenes.
