I didn't think I would EVER say it, but bring Lane back

YES I agree at this point .I've not been on the Lane train but I'm buying my ticket now. We need SEC experience hire imo. Who would that Be? Yes hire him and let's go win in 2018. I'm sick of this crap.I never thought we (Vols)would ever be this low. We start winning all this goes away. Without it our players start leaving, recruiting will sux for 2 or 3 years till a nobody coach proves himself, if he is able to prove in a positive way. Hire Lane and let's win. We are all tired of this crap.

Do you really think that the kiffin cheapens the TN brand more than the Haslams? Come on! Let's have fun again and stop the hypocrisy. Forgive, forget and let's stomp Alabama!

So, I've heard two schools now, N.C. State and FSU who will go after Kiffin. We better act now or he will be gone by Sunday or Monday.

Thank God. After he's hired elsewhere the kiffin threads might drop to maybe 3-4 per day.

If Lebron James can leave his city high and dry, go to South Beach and come home again and win a championship, why can't Kiffin?

Witch Doctor say for the Drama queens that say hiring Kiffin is embarrassing, wait till we are 4-8 and Vandys band playing full blast for blowing us off the field with our 3rd string coach Curries trying to hire, tell me that then how proud you are we didnt hire him

Brash, funny, confident, offensive genius. If we could get 90's Spurrier would we? I know, I know the character isnt the same im simply making the point that there are significant similarities to them coaching wise.

It is either simply about wins, not about wins at all or somewhere in between and Kiffin is a good hire for wins and in between.

Here is a sample of coaching staff and salaries...

We spent 9 mil in 2017 salaries

HC- 4.2
OC-.6
OL-.35
QB-.3
WR-.35
RB-.475
TE/ST-.25
DC-1
DL-.325
LB-.5
DB-.45
SC-.2

This could be our staff...

HC-Kiffin 3.5 (currently makes .9)
OC-Tee 1 (currently makes .455)
OL- ? .4
QB- Briles .5 (currently makes 3.55)
WR- ? .3
RB-Gillespie .55 (raise of .1)
TE/ST- Scott .3 (retain to avaoid buyout and negotiate reduction)
DC-Steele 1.5 (currently makes 1.2, 1.3 in 18)
DL- Rodney Garner .8 (currently makes .6)
LB- Thigpin .5 or replace with Randy Shannon
DB- Warren .45
SC- Rock .2 or replace

10 mil total...on all coaches. Why cant we have a good staff?

A. Knoxville isn't home to Lane Kiffin.

B. He's not the best in the world at what he does.

C. You know what everyone thinks Lebron is going to do again, right?

The only argument I have with this any many others is that Kiffin calls his own plays. No way Tee would come here to be an offensive consultant

We can't offer Kiffen because Tennessee can't afford to be publicly embarrassed any more than we are when he turns us down.

You think he wouldn't turn us down? He would because it would garner him more love with the media that hates us right now.

The only way we could offer him, would be if he publicly came out and guaranteed that he would accept if offered. That would give Tennessee the green light it needs.

I should be his agent.

99, youĀ’re a great poster here and pretty cool for a Gator, but I honestly think you would fear this hire.
