Not sure if this has been posted but this is who ESPN assumes we are going after..

"Tennessee's short list is believed to include (former NFL head coach Jon) Gruden, (former Arkansas head coach Bobby) Petrino and (Oklahoma State head coach Mike) Gundy," 247Sports.com wrote. "If a move is made on Dooley, Gruden will get the first call, but his salary demands may be too much for Tennessee to swallow.

It's been posted a few times, but that just shows how little that pundit knows. Petrino is 100% NOT on our list. A snowball has a better chance in hell than Petrino does getting hired here.

Thank God. I believe he ends up at the Barn, but he has flown to close to the sun a few times in the way he has handled things both personally and professionally. I do not want Dooley as our head coach but I believe he has done a great job, with the AD as a whole, in cleaning up the UT reputation. Bobby Petrino would basically destroying all of that in the media's eyes.

I said the other day that, if the powers that be think Petrino is our best shot, then this program is sc--wed for the foreseeable future.

Petrino's a scumbag. And whoever hires him will be telling the world that honor takes a back seat to maybe winning some games.

I still don't get how everyone thinks money is a big issue. The people with money will step up if they want a certain coach.

If that's the only reason people think Gruden won't come here, then I think Gruden can go ahead and start scouting out homes in the area.

Can't be serious. If Gundy left, it would be because of a lot of money. And if we are throwing that much cash down, Gruden will be here.

If it came down to Dooley or Petrino, I'm all for Petrino. Put the clauses in the contract to protect UT. Win some games. He takes out Oregon and all will be forgot.

Flame Away.

UGA fan?
Of course you dont want Petrino here. Id say if he was at any school other than UK or VU he would win the east within three years.

Article posted on CNN Sports that sounds like Chip Kelly might leave for the NFL this year. If he leaves, does Oregon step in and get Gruden before we have a chance?

No, he wouldn't. He proved at Arky that he can't win the big games. And he couldn't recruit even before he had his little incident. How is he going to do that now? The Petrino love never ceases to baffle me. Dumb idea is dumb.
