Bring Back Kiffin

[OrangeWayOfLife]

There. I said it

 

[KeyVol14]

He would come back

 

[BanditVol]

Not just no, but hell no.

 

[zydane47]

I’d take him back, he did more with less.

 

[UTK]

Not just no, but hell no.

Over Pruitt though? Anyday.

 

[deezvols]

I mean.... a 5-7 Conference USA coach is our style as far as hires go.

 

[BigOrangeAl 1979]

Pruitt can’t hold Lanes jockstrap

 

[JMSqb11]

If and only if we had a contract with him that protects Tennessee more than it rewards Kiffin

 

[K-town Vol Fan]

He is overrated. He was fired at the airport at USC. Is 1-2 this season at FAU. I don't understand why this guy comes here and wins 7 games and people think he is a god.

I’m so desperate I could get behind it, but only with a very UT friendly contract.

I agree

 

[VFLCodyGBO]

I’m on the fence. He struggled at USC, granted he had some sanctions he was fighting against. He had an ok season here. He’s been mediocre at FAU. Not sure it’s a home run, but not sure it’d be a disaster either.

How many times have we won 7 regular season games since then?

 

[roymcavoy83]

Kiffin made it fun to watch. He took the Sullins twins - two dudes that were walk ons and 260 lbs, plugged them in the O-line and made them serviceable. He drastically improved Crompton.

If he can make us competitive, bring him back.

Trying to coach with the debilitating penalties from the NCAA after the Reggie Bush scandal. Does everyone forget about the loss of 30 scholarships over 3 years?

 

[Bigorangedan23]

Kiffin is a thug..always will be. Don’t let this pric@ take the Vols for fools again! This program is in a spiral losing to a team like Florida....losing I mean embarrassed! No pride with this group. The fan base deserves better than this...no excuses. The only thing we have left is our outstanding fan base. After that there is NOTHING!

Butch won 9, should we want him back?

 

[knoxchief]

Right now I'd be happy for a 5-7 year.

And kiffin got us in trouble, plus ran off

 

[Vato]

There. I said it

I second that

 

[joevol33]

We'll be 1-11

 

[FranklinVFL]

Butch won 9, should we want him back?

That was not the question I asked.

 

[Smokey1990]

As much as I'd like that, we can't realistically fire Pruitt right now. We're still having to pay Butch. It's also getting to the point where it may be hard to convince any decent coaches to come here. We're in pretty bad shape.

 

[FranklinVFL]

NCAA trouble? I must have missed the NCAA investigation, penalties, lost scholarships and probation we have been playing under since he left.

 

[Nerwen Aldarion]

Hes not that good guys, but he's like the prom queen that rejected us in high school. We think he's better than he actually was. He had a halfway decent year but he hasn't actually accomplished much in any of his other HC positions either.
