Fulmer is a different story for me. Strong is a good coach on the rise, you will see. Louisville didn't pony up near $5m a year just to keep an average coach.

The principle is the same though.

I'm not hating on you selling tix - I'd sell them too if I was unhappy with the product.

Fulmer is not an option. He will not unite the fanbase and many will not give him a chance even with winning.

100% on board wanting him, just not in my perceived spectrum of reality the chances of getting him but the door is not closed until we make a hire. Strong 100% was offered, if not there was nothing to turn down. He part of the smokescreen too? One truly just has to suspend all disbelief and reason to think this is all a master plan, not in my DNA.

Understand your stance.

I posted this last night and curious your thoughts.


Anybody thinking gruden is coming because everything is a smokescreen is foolish.

But....


This all could cause the big money boosters to cut the feet out from under hart/cheek and revisit gruden.

Completely off subject...listening to TSR. That commercial they pimp about the DUI lawyer cracks me up. "Just because you have been arrested for DUI doesn't mean you're guilty..."

You do know that Grider was one of the original sources right?

Those were his words. No mind reading to it.

I want Gruden as much as anyone, but the insinuations and assumptions don't prove anything.

May be his words but doesn't mean they're true. When it comes to sports, no matter what level I never believe 100% of what a coach or athlete says to the media.

This sounds like more of a possibility

This is a fact.

I was at a networking function last night in ATL - the buzz was Arkansas hire.... the joke was Tennessee. Even the Vandy fans were in on the laugh. It was embarrassing.


Though... a splash hire completely erases it. See Arkansas.

I can only think of one hire that would do that and I'm way too skeptical to believe it would ever happen.


I really hope it does tho

So tell me what happens the last few weeks differently if Gruden had to be announced today/next week for legal reasons.

We just don't carry on a search?

I will say this, as i have stated before if it is not Gruden or never was the University should have said so from the start PERIOD. But this has played out and now at the moment we are geting BURIED in the press. This has to be addressed and SOON because if it isn't Gruden or someone else totally out of left field "and I'm not talking Phil" this has been a PR disaster and a insult to UT fans. Again I'm sayin IF but now the University and Hart are clearly in the crosshairs, this is not how you build up a fanbase. UT better be holding a BIG ACE in the hole, I hope and pray it does and out of loyalty and faith in UT I am still on the ride, PLEASE UT GET IT DONE!!:rock::clapping:
