I just read it. Seperating the 2 would help with money and in coaching hires I understand fully and that's great. That needs to happen IMO but more importantly the academic side of things needs to improve. The only solution is cheek changes or is replace with a proper minded leader.

That's what I was saying, cheek is not "proper minded". So you can either remove the power by separating the two or hire proper minded chancellors. If you separate the two then you don't have to worry about it as a coach. The coach has full control, within reason, to admit as he sees fit.

I'll probably be seeing you soon. My wife knocked my Les Paul Custom off the stand and nearly broke the headstock in half.

I'm truly worried that Tennessee has not hit rock bottom, and that we have yet to see the worst.

Goat I have faith. Honestly I don't think we are that far away. Charlie strong fixes this thing very quickly. If it wasn't for the pr and bringing the fanbase together I would want him more than gruden

I like his defensive minded approach, but I'm not so sure he would be among the elite in the SEC. I think he would definitely be at the top of the second tier coaches, but I doubt he would be a Saban slayer. JMO. If he comes here, I'll be in his corner the second he is introduced.

Glad to hear it. I'm doing great too. A little irratable though because the fiance wants to do WeightWatchers. Today was the first day. God I'm starving.

:eek:lol: I bet. Eating healthy is expensive too. You would think it wouldn't be to provide motivation to folks who are bettering themselves.

I don't see us hiring another dud on the Dooley level. Might be a coach that isn't elite. But I don't see us being a laughing stock again.

It was a perfect storm to allow Dooley to coach here. I agree that it most likely won't be a dud, but it needs to be a home run. This fan base has suffered enough.

I hear you. I love wings. How many wings can you polish off at a time?

Man, in highschool, me and my buds would go to Hooters on Wednesday for all you can eat wings. I used to be able to put away 40+ wings. And I get them with the 3 mile island sauce. Pretty hot! Now, my guts can't handle all that. I could maybe eat 20 Hooters wings if I was really feeling froggy. What about you? I bet you can throw down.

I like them as hot as possible too. But I don't think I could ever approach 40. 20-30 on a good night. Most I have ever eaten was a large pizza by myself, or 15 Krystals.

The amendment of the UT-UTFI affiliation will be the key point of the meeting. That vote will be the defining moment that will tell us wheter UT football will be able to come back to prominence or continue to flounder.

A large pizza is certainly an accomplishment. I went to college with a girl that ate krystals competitively. She could eat 12 krystals in 2 minutes. She was smokin' hot too, but seeing her stuff soggy krystals in her pie hole made me think twice.
