Heupel given ultimatum? (Troll site)

[MemphisVolFan1978]

To the VolNation community,
In a lapse in judgement, I posted a link to an article that has been blasted on here as being a troll article. I had no ill intent in posting this article which was apparently taken down from their website shortly after I posted it. I simply wanted to get the opinion from other members of this board regarding the article. I figured it was clickbait and everyone on here has confirmed that. I didn’t realize that I would be opening such a big can of worms. I own my mistake and ask for forgiveness. Go VOLS!

Thanks

Anybody else see this? Apparently there are reports that Heupel has been given a 30 day ultimatum to turn the season around and that there is discussion about a buyout. It’s hard for me to believe that Danny White would give Josh Heupel an ultimatum unless there is pressure from boosters as the article mentions. Do you guys think there is any validity to this or just more clickbait?

No

ah yes... essentiallysports.com - obviously a well-known reputable site not just posting stuff for clicks

The linked page has been taken down…

No. I believe this when pigs fly. There are lots of obscure outlets writing crazy stories for clicks. I read one that was encouraging Penn St. to go hard after him. If we did something this stupid, Heupel would have 10 offers before the next morning.

No

When pigs fly I will believe it.

Turn what season around? He's 6-3 with a top 25 team with one of the youngest teams in the country

Funny, it was literally there 15 minutes ago. Can’t say that I’m upset that it’s gone.

We could lose every game remaining game and Heup would not be fired. Get real guy.

The story is still floating around, I saw it on AOL.com. It's based off a tweet by someone called Richard G West and named Kiffin as the target to replace Josh. LOL

 

[TheVolsFrog]

LOL the season is done in less than 30 days
Didn't bother clicking the link that was probably AI generated anyway

Nega-vol putting a fake item on the internet therefore,it must be accurate.Idiots would believe anything.

Amazing to me that in the year 2025 people do not use even the remote hint of critical thinking.

This one is kinda like Dooleys wife passing or whatever it was a few months back.

If it is one place on the internet, it is going to be at 500 places on the internet and not just from Richard G West or a website nobody has heard of.

That guy is a known troll. Anyone quoting him should be immediately dismissed

Someone should sue that cat for Libel.

Knowingly false, just have to quantify the harm.

 

[MemphisVolFan1978]

My apologies to all those that I have offended by posting this. I wasn’t trying to troll anyone. I just saw the article and thought it was probably clickbait and decided to post it on here to see what you guys thought. Everyone has responded that it is not true, which is what I expected and hoped for.

 

[VOLfrombama]

I read it on the internet so it must be true

 

[Delmar]

Why do some of y’all do this to yourselves? Open up every clickbait article/podcast you can find and get excited. It is sad that every moron with a keyboard and a camera for a podcast thinks they are a journalist now.

CJH is coming off a Playoff season. The team has 3 losses this year.

He is not going to be fired, given ultimatums, or whatever else.

Like all positions of leadership, CJH will have to continuously adjust or he will fail.

Let's see what he does this offseason

Exactly. This offseason will be a big one for Josh. We’re going to find out if he can recognize obvious staff issues. If he can, great. If he can’t, well the discussion is going to get hotter.

GAWD, I LOVE a good Bye week !!!!

 

[rocketskates]

Keep it up vocal minority, I say we start a petition to fire Josh and bring in Kiffin; as a fanbase we like doing dumb stuff like that. Not saying that it would ever happen but with all of these openings if Josh skipped town to go somewhere else the same ones doing this BS would be burning mattresses and screaming “how could he?!!!!”

What is the purpose of a fan message board other than to spread rumors and to ridicule and be ridiculed?
