Chris Petersen thread (merged)

[Volwark]

Please let this be true. My excitement level for UT football would be at pre-2001 levels, maybe even higher.

 

[Volz4lif3]

Just curious, what is that connection? If I may ask my good man!

Like to know this as well

Time to go watch some ball.

Larry, before you go. Please calm everyone’s fears and say you haven’t heard anything about Schiano being the guy....

 

[Vols410]

Explosive and expensive. Sounds about right...

He already did. Said almost zero chance.

Thanks, and he’s been involved with this search this tells me this is great news..

Thanks man. That mess was scary

Petersen> Gruden. Tennessee could not make a better hire outside of Saban and Meyer. I might spontaneously combust if it happens.

 

[tim]

I believe he has serious interest in Tennessee. Has in the past. He has a close connection with Tennessee..

Wonder what the connection is.....

 

[Manning Up]

With the way the last 2 hires evolved, I'll take a wait and see attitude. I am still VERY skeptical.

Bingo.

Petersen would be better than my wildest dreams for the coaching search. I didn't think he was realistic to be honest. He would make me more excited for Tennessee football than I have been in 15 years. Here's hoping there is some truth to these rumors.

Look at couple above posts, Blackburn..

Doesn’t matter. If you name your coach this weekend you still have near a month before the early signing period. Chip Kelly isn’t coaching at the moment. Why hasn’t he been hired yet? Because no one hires a new coach before the completion of their regular season.

Kinda not true

Gotcha. Thx

 

[Perspective]

Petersen would be like getting Gruden, but with essentially no risk.

He’s a savant. It would be a bigger get than when Bama hired Saban.

Same for me. Which is why I’m trying to temper my enthusiasm.

What’s the story on that one?

 

[ukvols]

Dear God, no Jeff Brohm please

Do you know anything about Brohm?

I hear you. I would be surprised to say the least.

UW Coach Petersen


Petersen is my #2. Went over to their board and found a discussion about no commits since late July early August and it was started by a crimson turd. Lol

He would be my No. 1.
Petersen over Gruden. Not even close.
Petersen is among the elite coaches in college football.
Gruden has been out of coaching entirely for a long time.
Easy choice.

 

[Power T-Rev]

Do you know anything about Brohm?

I don’t want to know anything about Jeff Brohm

 

[General Jack]

Is it Perersens decision or UT?

If Peterson wants the job I don’t see any need for a decision on our part.

 

[ukvols]

Bless your heart

IMO, it would be moronic to choose Gruden over Petersen if they are both options.
