Folks, when the players know, we'll all know that they know. They will tweet like crazy. They may not say the coach's name, but you will absolutely know the second that they know, regardless of who it is. So let's stop with "the players have been told" stuff.

I have a felling something BIG is going down...
All the names we keep hearing seem like smokescreens to keep us off balance...
Even the media has no clue what is going on...
Other schools have made their hires already and we are still talking to folks...
Seems rather odd all that is going on with Fulmer...

Hope he walks to the stand and goes BOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Here is your new head coach...

My biggest fear about Fulmer taking over the reigns of AD look like they are being realized.

I know he loves Tennessee, but I've always felt like he would struggle hiring someone that could potentially overshadow his legacy. If Pruitt is the hire, I'll feel even more sure of it.

Roll Damn Vols.

One of the reasons I didn't want him to get AD.

You guys wonder why people are so hesitant to post any info they receive. Their source could be FOS or make assumptions, also most of these things are fluid.

The people who come on here and give info are crucified to no end. Sure some are trolls but some love UT football just like you , and are passing along what they have been told.

Has anyone even taken the time to notice, that while the New York stuff was happening, ALOT of people werent active in this thread who otherwise had been. Now that its the next day some are back.

I mean I know Im a nobody that anyone listens to (until They piss me off) but that bears noticing.

If we have some "Really, Really Great" Coach to announce, they will do it before the 5pm sports shows kick off. If its a brutal let down, expect it after SportsCenter. That being said, if were getting a Great hire today, I'd expect a presser to be announced anytime now.

Which his legacy as an AD gets cemented as either a success early on or as a failure with this hire.

He has one shot at getting this right.

Yeah, history is repeating itself. But the fans don’t have a say so in who is hired, no matter who the AD is. It’s just as political as the government, so just support whoever is hired.

I think if anything this sh*tshow has shown that the fans DO have a say so and if we accept this mediocrity and continue to fund it then its what we will get and continue to be.

No other fan base does this. Do you think Tallahassee would not be on fire if they trotted Pruitt out as a head coach? What about UF? You think if Saban said I quit they would be happy with Pruitt? UGA? Hell if Richt doesn't get fired then Pruitt would have.

Just one quick question before you leave.... before you jumped ship did you tell anyone to GTFO when they brought another coaching candidate into this thread??

No. If I’ve ever said that it was in response to someone purposefully trying to get a rise out of someone else by trolling. And sorry to disappoint you, but I’m not leaving. ;)
