I'm putting up 1,000 of my e-dollars that we don't hire Butch Jones. That way if I'm wrong, I don't ruin my e-cred.

you know who we want as our next football coach at tennessee, you need not to waiver in your pursuit to get the guy we need. you are going to have alot of upset volmaniacs at harts door. a survey was done in the news sentinal and 72 percent out of 50000 votes said they do not have confidence in dave hart. another survey was done on govols and asked who should be our next coach 55 percent said u know who. u know whats needs to be done, if not the university will suffer the consquences for decades to come.

Today is going to suck. The country will be laughing at us today. I take my hat off to the pigs, good hire. Damn, even KY made a good hire.

I'm going to hold my judgment on the OG's. But, if my Gruden dream don't come true. I will never take anything they say serious.

What if we haven't really offered anyone?

What if Hart is taking his time, which he said he would, to ensure that he meets a previously specified timeframe?

What if the excitement or disappointment is all premature conjecture due to us being over anxious and passionate?

I would love to have GRUDEN!

Rocky Top has really fallen in prominence because we "can't get a coach", which none of us want to believe............OR we've got a fantastic coach to be revealed at the right time!

So, it's the 4th quarter and we're behind on the scoreboard...are we going to walk out before the final whistle?? Or are we going to embrace the opportunity to cheer on our players and team? I

Even though I live in Ohio, I love Tennessee football! Each Saturday my boys and I build a fire and pull the vehicle by the fire pit and turn on the XM radio.

I may be proven wrong.....but until then I choose to believe that we WILL get the right coach. I believe they WILL get this turned around so that we can again have that feeling tha we had one night after the National Championship victory. GO VOLS!!!

From the Cincinnati Enquirer:
Under Jones’ contract, he will owe the school $1.4 million if he leaves UC before Jan. 1. That number will drop $300,000 to $1.1 million if he terminates his contract after Jan. 1

And then, we get ugly....from the UC sports blog:

It's early and I am about to get the first cup of coffee so SIAP. Wasn't Hargis supposed to have another story we were waiting for night before last? What if it's true Gruden was assembling a staff but for someone like Oakland or San Diego. Feeling queasy again.

I wasnt able to get on here yesterday and now i wake up and read butch jones. Damn, even dooley beat him. I am disgusted that his name even came up.
I have stayed the course w gruden, never waivering but with hart in charge i am thinking he is such an idiot he might go out on his own and hire some dumb azz.
Someone restore my faith....i was gonna order season tickets yesterday. Now must consider butch jones.
I now have morning sickness.

Good morning, first time site has worked in 12 hours for me.

I'm staying on the Gruden train until someone else is named. Butch Jones would be an utterly depressing hire.

Have your coffee and relax. Don't assume too much, like you said, it's early. Let the day play out first.

Today ladies and gentleman....I am afraid will be a very low point in our programs history.

I now want Fulmer back. I will happily accept Fulmer. Can't believe I said that.

Keep butch in Cincinnati! .

To be fair...

He said that before the Charlie Strong extravaganza.

Not before this mess.

I know that, but did Strong really want to make you puke? That hire would have been fine with me, especially given his recruiting ability and knowing the type of recruits that would have considered us again immediately.

SN: will the OGs PLEASE come back in here and reassure us that things are still going according to plan. Lex popped in here maybe twice yesterday and made an appearance in the recruiting forum, but the rest have been silent for 24 hours now.
