Well done Vols fans! We came together at* the right time to press our influence and stop the wrong hire, didn't let up until we got a UT person in charge of some things. Ms. Davenport has seen the picture and gave us our guy. Seriously, Congratulations.

That being said, can we please shut up on social media, get the national media off our behinds and let ADF make a great hire? PLEASE!

I would advise that people also stop living in fantasy land about Gruden, Kiffin or Petersen being back in play.

I can’t believe I am seeing people mention it

Yes Please. And, can we stop believing every rumor that comes along? It's now Phil's job to select our next coach. I trust him to get it right. I also trust he knows way more than I on this topic.

Most of us aren’t completely irrational, only a very loud lunatic fringe.

So please, keep the emails and tweets going. They still need encouragement to make the right decision. After what feels like two months, my goodness, I've spent more time with my Vol family than I ever imagined I would......I wouldn't have missed it for anything. Keep up the "Good Fight!" and help me bump this post, I don't want anyone traveling great distance

Never gonna happen. We have a right to voice our opinions.

Maybe UT should learn how to handle things differently.

Continued vigilance to keep the Haslams on the sideline will be required over the long term. Control freaks don't just quietly slink away - they scheme for revenge and a return to power.

Look I'm fine with supporting Kevin Steele or whoever but I'd like us to actually take a shot. If Phil thinks Dave Doeren is a good hire, I'm not sure he realizes our ceiling. I'd just like to swing for the fences on someone now. Idk if it can happen with as much turmoil that has went down but I'd lie him to try. Everyone wants Fulmer to be successful, I'm not sure hiring someone like Doeren, Steele, etc and them telling us they're rebuilding is going to cut it.

Fulmer has a lot of love from the fanbase but we're starved for a good football coach. We give tons of support and money and all it buys is excuses

And allow for some failure, losses will happen, sometimes to lesser teams.. Cant go into meltdown every time.. Recruits get overrated, injuries can change the game, 18 year olds are teenagers... chill and enjoy.. Encourage and build up. For every negative you speak, speak 10 positives..

Vols on social media are receiving some criticism for how this has gone down. But if it hadn't happened the way it did Greg Schiano would be our HC and John Currie would still be in place. No, we did the right thing and got the right result. Believe me a trend has been set. You're going to see this repeated elsewhere and probably soon.

The air in Tennessee smells so much sweeter today .

I think fans pressing their influence on social media is the new normal and the tooth paste is out of the tube.

I don't know man, fans are not even close to as passionate about their football as we are. I was talking to a Louisville fan at work about it today. Bama and TN, we are the craziest. He didn't agree. But what does he know, he is a Louisville fan.
