Civil war: Haslem+Currie vs fans+Boosters

[Old Geezer]

There is now zero doubt that Currie was hired to do the bidding of Haslam - and he did exactly that. Haslam's failures in the football enterprise are simply obvious.
As we ponder events, powerful boosters, such as Charlie Ergen and their appointed advocates are doing everything they can to wrestle power away and right the ship from Haslem and his puppet Currie. Atlanta Vol is in that mix too. They were blindsided by Currie and Haslams underhanded move.
Currie has no credibility and will not be the UT AD after his debacle. Nobody want's to sign with a failed AD who will be booted shortly for incompetence.
Please keep up the pressure on DiPeitre to remove Currie and install Blackburn - the man who should have been AD if not for Haslams meddling. The next hire will require a solid, serious AD, not a dead man walking. We need an AD free from Haslam's influence. Then we can hire a serious coach. UT is loaded with money and resources - along with the best fan base in the country. We are taking back this team. Sunday was the shot across the bow. UT fans rule.

Good luck with that one

Like him or not, Jimmy Haslam has done more for my alma mater than you, me, or just about anyone not named Fulmer or Manning.

Currie on the other hand is awful and needs to go ASAP.

Haslam: I choose not. He's done such a bang up job with the company he was given, the Cleveland Browns organization, and now the destruction of the UT football program.

The Academic side yes but he is completely destroying our football program right in front of our eyes. It's time to light up every admin twitter and email account from the top to the AD.

I’m sure he has, he just needs to stay out of football stuff. He’s obviously not competent in this area and there’s a pretty good sample size to back that up.

This guy is literally the only Haslam sympathizer on here. I understand he donates money but he is running the football program into the ground. One good deed does not make one bad deed acceptable.

Jimmy Haslam hasn't done jack squat other than diminish the value of what his father accomplished both with the company and with UT.

Jim Haslam is deserved of our gratitude and respect for what he did and what he stood for. His son Jimmy is a shell of his father and is interested in power not support. People need to understand that this is not the same Haslam that built the empire and helped build the UT infrastructure. This is a irresponsible son.

Brewferr, If you think Schiano was not a Haslam idea, you are deluded. If you think Haslam is competent making football decisions, you are insane.

Haslam and his puppet are grossly incompetent. I don't care how much money he has. He is destroying UT football. I care about UT football. I don't care about the personal benefits you derived from Haslams pockets.

Done a lot but at what price?? To be able to thumb his nose at the rest of fans and tell them to 'eat cake'??

And Currie was handpicked by Haslam. There's some more he's 'done' for UT.

Brilliant

 

[Lt. Nordberg]

Haslam will be indicted in 2018 anyway, so eff him and let's get a great coach without his filthy fingerprints all over it.

The University of Tennessee belongs to the taxpayers of the state of Tennessee, not the Haslams. Let's make our university something to be proud of again. With Tennessee people !!!

Yeah he's done more to destroy your alma mater than anyone else too. He is the cancer that plagues the program. We need to completely cut ties with him if we ever plan to have a good program again.

Regret leaving your Strat and migrating to the Jazzmaster? I did it back in 1967 and have regretted it ever since. The smaller Stratocaster was such a nice fit. Easy on strings too.
