According to LWSVOL on tos, he doesnt think firing Currie will do anything but make things worse. Says coaches are onto the dysfunction of our whole administration including boosters. Says coaches want to know whomtomtrust and they don't think they can trust anyone. Says the whole coaching community is on to it.

I'll take the positive route here and say that good can come from bad. Now that the skeletons are out of the closet it becomes harder to pull your stunts. Maybe it finally brings change.

Also I don't care if I trust you or not if your paying me a lifetime worth of money

Jimmy is right again. In his show today he said Brohm gave very little interest and Morris sent word he is waiting in A&M job first. Unless something changes UT will hire Kevin Steele tomorrow
 
The solution isnt far from Knoxville. Venables has a Bob Stoops kind of feel to him.

Venables doesn't seem like someone who is looking to become a head coach, but if he is interested, I would be much more interested in him than someone like Steele.

We could sure change Venable's money situation without breaking the bank.

Goodness. Well it sure was nice to see UT win at a high level when I was a kid but 1998 I was 10 years old and I can barely remember it now. I guess the program is actually nuked now. :mf_surrender:

I doubt Steele would interview till after title game this weekend. No way he’s doing that on a Wed after practice right?
 
The Haslams did this. It's Big Jim's fault. He's the root of all our failings.

I'll never gas up at a Pilot again. I encourage all of you to do the same.

Les Miles makes the most sense. It will stabilize things. Give us time to get our house in order (get rid of Currie and get DB or Phil in there, or both. Get him some good staff.

My plan 2 would be sumlin. I think he could do the same. Sumlin may not want to entertain it due to his friendship with Butch.
 
This sucks in the short term but let's not lose sight of the fact that there are still plenty of good coaches that could potentially come to UT. Once we find our guy, Sunday and today will be distant memories. By next fall none of it will matter.

So, who could still be on the list?

Names we've heard: Chad Morris, Jeff Brohm, Kevin Steele, Jeremy Pruitt, Dave Doeren

Other names that are likely on the list: Tee Martin, Brent Venables, Mike Norvell

Some other names to keep an eye on: Wittingham, Leach, Calhoun, Mike Houston, Bobby Petrino, Sumlin, Fuente, Strong, Applewhite,

Unfortunately no one knows where Currie is or who Currie is pursuing. I don't think half the coaches have been or ever will be contacted.
