6:05 Press Conference

[SpaceCoastVol]

Bama have a practice today at 1?

 

[bag12day]

I guess there's not enough time to get his family on a flight ilot:

Nah... since its Jimmy it probably is at 1 and he's just late again with the breaking news.

 

[BowlBrother85]

I had heard 8 yr. 58 mill from a co-worker, but its all just speculation.

No, that's just plain crazy. :crazy:

 

[Brave Volunteer]

Looking forward to it!

 

[VFL_in_MD]

Honestly, I wouldn’t want him.

He leads us on like a troll instead of being honest and saying no to the job. He clearly did it to get more attention. We don’t need that kind of self centered-ness in a coach.

Yea. Agree. I was trying hard to be sarcastic and failed miserably

 

[Vol_til_I_die]

Any news on what the contract terms are?

Saw last night 6 years at $4.1-$4.2 per. Sounds a lot better than the $7+ million per that some of these guys are saying. Who knows.

It was also reported that he was willing to take less in order to hire some of the best coordinators. Hoping its the 4 mil range and we save about 1 mil to add to assistant salaries

 

[RollerVol]

not yet, but just guessing 4.9 million per year, 5 year contract.
needs to be a clause in there with a large payback ($20 million?) when leaving for Bama

and all the skittles he wants...compliments of the Weakly's...

GO AD FULMER AND GO VOLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Uh...

UT will pay approximately $5 million for assistant coaches in 2017.

Tennessee Vols football coaching staff plus head coach Butch Jones are in uncharted salary waters

[Give_All_Vol]

Can't wait to hear a real coach speak

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

 

[Volstylexx]

I’m excited. Really excited.

 

[Honky]

WATE Facebook has live video

 

[GAVol]

I’m excited. Really excited.

To say she seems relieved would be an understatement.

 

[KBVol]

Why the hell is Davenport speaking? No good can come of it. Let Phil give brief remarks and introduce JP and then let’s hear from him.

 

[Cartervol]

Ok she can go now..

 

[Grand Vol]

She's awfully chipper today. Way more than last time
