I believe all of this is on this guy!!! Haslam led to Currie and Currie tried to hire Schiano. I know Haslam has done a lot of great things for Tennessee football, but he is killing it now!!!

We need to have an amendment to the State Constitution that bans all the Haslams from Tennessee.

These guys seem hell bent on destroying the program.

He's a pox, plague, scourge on our program. Not sure how much he gives, but could we not survive without his money? Maybe actually getting back into the mix with top tier bowls might be a good start to making up the deficit of kicking him to the curb?

Big Jim did some great things for the University and played for Neyland but he is quite old. As far as I can tell Jimmy hasn't done anything worth noting other than donate. He is also the Haslam that is running the Browns.

What is it with wealthy people where they think since they succeeded in one area (truck stops) that they’re automatically going to be experts in something entirely unrelated? Just because the Haslam’s are good at the gas station biz doesn’t mean they know dick about football and running a team.

It’s clear this was all the Haslams, they wanted schiano at the browns and that essentially destroyed their front office and still ended up with another coach. So their love affair with him obviously continued and now they wanted to shove him down the fans throats, and again it has blown up horribly.

Now the fan base needs to turn yesterday’s anger squarely towards them and demand the school keep them from anything football related.

No doubt the biggest turds in the punchbowl are:

1) The whole Haslam family
2) Sexton
3) all of the administrative stooges hand picked by the Haslams

We need to rise up collectively in massive numbers as a fan base and start boycotting everything UT and everything Haslem until we get some positive change. Otherwise, it will just continue to be business as usual and we will continue to be the Tennessee Browns.

As long as the Haslam's are allowed to meddle in the University's business we're going nowhere! Maybe if Vol nation unites and boycotts Pilot they'll get the message!

Jimmy Haslam had nothing to do with this situation. Now, his father might have played a huge role.

It's a horrible reflection upon our fan base as to how dumb a portion of it can be in such matters. There is a big distinction between Jim, the father and huge contriubutor to UT and his son, Jimmy, the owner of the Cleveland Browns. That some in our fan base don't get that makes us look even dumber.
