Charles Davis

.

A VFL people have heard of that speaks well.

And.. That's it. Dang Charles Davis resume for AD is even shorter than Fulmer.

In order for a bigger name to come, they will want a lot of control and that’s not the TN way. Until we give a coach control and a great support system, this is what we will end up with every 3-4 years.

Maybe things will be different when a different AD comes aboard. But they have to understand, that’s how it works. Just look around the league at the top Schools.

Step 1 of the TN playbook

Man I detest this "guy"

 

[rjd970]

Sankey can make our life difficult and give a stern recommendation, but at the end of the day he can't keep us from hiring who we want.

 

[VolGee4]

The Pruitt apologists are in full meltdown mode

I don’t think there were many. Just some who didn’t sling mud at him as he was going out.

 

[drvenner]

We’re starting a coaching search in mid-January.

The last time we did this, we hired Derek Dooley. Even more anxious now.

Step 1 of the TN playbook

Wes, you’ve been here long enough to know this is the Tennessee way. You don’t need to tweet everything that comes across your pee brain.

For ****s sake be better

 

[Smyrna ATL Vol]

We're going to lose a bunch of players if we don't hire the right guy. May lose them anyway

Some will leave but most will stay. Don’t worry.

*We can get Freeze if we want to

If this search takes longer than 2 weeks we are doomed.

Please stop calling JP "Gump" That's a damn disgrace to Forest Gump, one of the best movies all time.

 

[drvenner]

Really hope we don't regret this. I was in the camp of wanting to see Pruitt return. Hope you guys are right

You are very brave.

 

[KPT_VFL]

You absolutely can’t even consider Kevin Steele as HC. We need HC named before spring ball.

eh great movie, but he was still a bammer. so it kind of fits.

 

[LA Vol]

I’m leaning toward Pruitt and Phil may be wrapped up in it one way or another

Of course they are. Every SEC program colors outside the lines. Doing stuff is one thing; nailing yourself for it and inviting the NCAA to ZOOM in while you self-sacrifice is something else.

 

[Atlanta VOL]

Y’all remember about four weeks ago when i told you to buckle up?

 

[Volfanatic_20]

Also will be interesting to see if there is more staff removal as a part of this investigation.

This is why we will never have nice things. This is why I am not jumping up and down with today's news. Pruitt sucked. But we will roll out someone else that sucks too.

 

[A.J.]

That’s the kind of attitude I like to see. I’ll pull extra hard for the guys that stick around through this mess.

 

[White Bread]

Tony B on the money again.

any names being thrown out for HC and AD?

 

[LargePairOfVols]

This is going to be THE site on the internet for the next 3 weeks.

 

[UTProf]

Pruitt gone and Fulmer retiring per Hubbs

Get ready for Schiano 2.0. I seriously hope the boosters prove me wrong but this looks like nothing more than an internal power play for team Haslam. They will celebrate their return to power but will they do a damn thing to actually help this program? If Freeze, Herman, or Kiffin then maybe if the schlubs we’ve been hearing about then it’s always been about them getting their power back and has nothing to do with getting a coach that can win. I hope like hell they hire a legit coach and do something for the program for once.

 

[Atlanta VOL]

There will be more staff removal

 

[BruinVol]

Charles Davis

I like Charles a lot but doesn’t he need at least some experience in an AD?
