I totally understand those reasons, as opposed to Sheath Huler's post re: the "product on the field".

Travel would be worth the effort if the "product on the field" was better.

Case in point: I'd consider going to Eugene next season if anybody BUT Doolz is coaching. He's an awful coach. We'd at least have a chance, and there would be hope and excitement surrounding the team again. Would make the trip a lot more enjoyable for anybody that has to travel a long way to get to games (home or away).

All I know is that if Gruden is in next year, I'll more than likely make the six hour drive to Knoxville for a game. I can't imagine what the spring game attendance would be. 80K

For those who believe Gruden cant recruit...

Prospects can't help but hear the talk in Tennessee. When they hear Jon Gruden's name, they take notice. "That would be great," safety Jalen Tabor from Washington (D.C.) Friendship said when asked of the possibility that Gruden could be hired to replace third-year coach Derek Dooley.

Why all the commotion about the possibility of Gruden coaching at UT?

To me, if the present trend continues - (Dooley as HC) - soon the Vols may become 'that' team that gets invited to be the opponent at other schools Homecoming games.

Can you see the headlines? "Today's homecoming opponent for the Louisville Cardinals is the UT Vols". Talk about a downer.

Book your flight (if you are a true Grude believer ... Dooley will not be here).

I don't view the effort on the field by our UT student-athletes, as a "product". I don't believe in penalizing the boys in orange, because we don't like the coaching? That's just me.

Based on every single thing that I am hearing, things are still good. Don't get too down at any point. It might not be on the timeline that you or I want, but it's still going to happen.

C'mon he's not that bad. Every coach would have punished a player for their Grandmother dying. Players have to know better than have family problems mid-season.


















Total sarcasm, for those who may have sarcasm detection problems.

If I may borrow a line from my good buddy, Beecher: "I tried to tell you!"


About Dooley that is.
