Chip Kelly to be fired

[UT_Tix79]

And message boards saying Tennessee would be a good fit.

What would your reaction be to firing Butch now, and taking Chip Kelly?

 

[joevol33]

Wake up, you're dreaming again 😬

 

[dduncan4163]

Butch isn't getting fired and I wouldn't want him fired right now. The timing would be terrible and would ruin what looks like a very solid recruiting class.

 

[ReaderVol]

Wow. Just wow

 

[Vols_74]

I'll take him as OC and we can get saban as DC

No one is saying UT would be a good fit.

With Butch's buyout plus asst buyouts plus what it would take to land Chip plus new asst contracts....what are we talking over a 5 year period.....30 mil?

Would he have to win multiple NCs to make the math work??

 

[Volnbeers]

UT would be a good fit

I'm not saying it, major analysts are.

I'm asking what would be our fan bases reaction after the bowl win, if they fired Butch, to hire Chip Kelly

 

[VolFreakJosh]

Butch isn't a great coach but realistically, he's not getting fired anytime soon. It's not possible right now to hire a new HC.

You said message boards. Which major analysts are saying UT should fire Butch and hire Kelly?

 

[dduncan4163]

Hart is not firing Butch. He is about to retire

Go look at twitter feeds. Yes there are people saying TN would be a good fit.

Oh it's on Twitter? Well that changes everything!

Just no.

Hey smarta** the comment was made that no one is saying it and I am looking at it. That's all I said. Didn't say it was reliable or I agreed with it.

 

[utvolpj]

Look harder.

Of course no one can provide a legit source. Tweets are just people typing out random crap that pop in their head

It would not matter if Nick Saban came out and said "I'm sick of Alabama my true calling is Tennessee and I will coach there for free". Butch is not going to be dismissed. He doesn't deserve that for what he's produced with the program, like it or not, the economics of the situation won't allow it, and we won't have an AD until mid next year no way Hart cuts Butch loose.

You're just working yourselves up building blind hopes that won't be fulfilled for many reasons and in my own opinion are unfounded at this time.

Message boards or major analysts? Which is it?

Regardless you do realize that there are those that just love to put things out there to get the 10% of this fan base that likes to complain to react.

Meanwhile the idiot team gives Colin Kaepernic an award, while his silly taking a knee has clobbered NFL ratings. Oh yeah Chip, you really screwed the pooch this year.

Yep. You said it. See there, people are saying..

Kelly would not be a fit at UT. There, now people are saying Kelly would not be a good fit. See how that works?

If a terrible backup QB clobbered your ratings then maybe your business model need to be revamped
