Its on you now Fulmer. Don't bring us Steele, nor Tee. We need an experience coach to get us through all this that has happened. Grow some Fulmer and get us the best possible hire!

Would love Tee. Would unite the fanbase. Tennessee man may be just what we need.

If not, go back and get Leach

Currie was going to be fired or "stripped of power" yesterday by DiPietro and Davenport. They called him and told him to come back to Knoxville and he ignored them and instead moved forward with Leach.

My gut tells me DiPietro and Fulmer are trying to take power away from the Haslams and their hand picked AD Currie.

That's what I'm hearing.

I still can’t wrap my head around this. How do you screw something like this up so badly?

Sorry I love the guy for what he did for the Vols but I do not trust Fulmer to bring us a winner. I just do not.

I just knew last night before going to bed, as fans were rallying to the Pirate and getting excited, that we were going to "Tennessee" this Leach hire and sure enough we did.

This whole topple the HOH thing is so stupid. Big Jim and Jimmy have no formal power. None. They're mega-boosters, not feudal lords. No need for all the jousting and high drama. Just stop listening to them. If they pull funding, find it somewhere else or scale back. It's a business, after all, not a fiefdom.

That’s the problem though, the president nor the BOT are willing to do that.

Biggest difference in Fulmer vs Hamilton, Hart and Currie

Fulmer loves UT and wants to see UT win. That is fact.

Also, Currie is hated by coaches and has a terrible reputation. Coaches would LOVE to work for Fulmer.

Maybe Fulmer is on the side of TN and just plays the game with boosters better than others?

It is sounding like Fulmer is on the side of Fulmer. I hope that is wrong.

While I am not against having VFL's as coaches, I think they need to be fully qualified. When we can have coaches who have the capabilities to win championships, I don't want someone else who just happens to be a VFL just to make a few people happy.

We need to let the dust settle on this... People are making assumptions that are way off IMO.

Couple of things we know.... The Haslams did NOT want Fulmer as AD. The Haslams used a ramrod to get Currie hired as AD in the middle of the night.

This thing may get worse before it gets better but we were not going to win with Currie here. He has a terrible reputation and he is a Haslam puppet.

Fulmer better have somebody better than Kevin Steele in his pocket after making that move. I would like this a lot more if he hadn't torpedoed a hire that could have really worked out well.
