Here's what I know right now, my left foot hurts, I am about to order some Barro's pizza (and probably some wings too), and that Tennessee football sucks.

Check in a little later for an update to what I'll know then.

Butch going to end 8-5 and get 3 yr extension. You folks know that is possible.

Tennessee will never, in my lifetime, be the team I knew as a kid and dare I say National Champs! The heart has stopped beating 😢

You must be on the death bed to assume this posture ....that’s the silliest and most fatalistic approach I’ve seen in years..... as The Godfather would say.... “stop this whinny stuff and be a man”....of course you could be a girl and I could be wrong....

Here is what I know. Butch is still our coach. We are one of the worst teams in the country and I am part of the delusional fans that think Gruden will come.

Hey we can hope for good things. ESPN is laying folks off and his contract is up. Let's have fun with it.

Exactly. Currie is here to bring in money to the athletic department. It's what he does best. If UT makes a big splash hire like Gruden money will pour in.

Really?? So how do we know this? Doug Mathews on 104.5 in Nashville this AM spoke for about 5 minutes warning about Tennessee sliding to a has been program level just like Nebraska has...and for the same bad decision reasons. There was an attitude in the leadership both in and above the football office at one time that got the job done. Tennessee is still on the great all time football list, although few players alive today are old enough to have seen or remember it.

Are the people (including admins) in place to make moves to turn this around? A top program would bring much return to the university I'm saying. The best stadium in the world won't help (millions proposed for Neyland upgrades again) if Tennessee is allowed to slide to MAC status.

Help!!!!! Please!!!!

Take the gun out of your mouth. Gruden can fix this.

  • UCLA felt the same way about Jim Mora
  • Illinois felt the same way about Lovie Smith
  • Michigan feels the same way about John Harbaugh - however, they are starting to get more any more unhappy by his results in against MSU and OSU (1-4)

Why do you put so much faith in a guy who hasn't coach in 10 years and has not been in college coaching in 30 years?

The limits on these type wagers is tiny and the odds move big on very little action to limit exposure, because the volume is so low. I would love to believe some people with inside info has maxed it out and moved it but its more than likely a bunch of fans hoping for salvation. It would be awesome if it happened

Yeah because probably only UT fans are obsessed with who our coach will be we bet on our dream. Therefore moving line. I bet it 10 of us bet on the same person the odds would change tremendously. I might bet on Inspector Gadget, Optimus Prime or Bart Simpson. Maybe a cult following would get one of their odds 100-1 or better.:good!:

2 things separates Gruden from them. He is a QB guru. If you get great QBs receivers follow and with a great QB you can be in any game. Secondly flashing a Super Bowl ring helps recruiting.

It better pour in for the $ he is wanting to spend on Neyland renovations alone. The artist rending looks cool, but it is going to take a lot of work and $. Going 0-5 in the SEC 9 games into the season is not going to bring in $ to get it done.

When butch took over-the program was in a dumpster fire!! He has us moving in the right direction, he's been building the program back-brick by brick. We would be undefeated this year if not for injuries, butch is a great family man-and a super-duper nice guy, give him a chance, we'll be back on top, if not next year in a couple more......
