With the “news” of Greg Schiano becoming the apparent focus of the coaching search fiasco, how many would give up decades worth of fanhood for this program? I know that I’m one. I just can’t understand how a man who belongs behind bars could potentially become the head coach of a historically top five football program. Blows my mind.

I won't stop being a fan but I won't watch or spend money on the program like I've done before. I've suffered through the Dooley years and never lost faith but this may do it. I'll be back when we're doing this again in 3 or 4 years.

Id drop the Vols and just be a Navy fan, until he and whoever hired him is gone. Luckily that would only be 3-4 seasons.

I’d drop the Vols for sure. I won’t support a university who would hire a man like him. I just won’t have a college team anymore. Honestly if we hire a nobody I’m done too, just done caring

My second CFB team is the Air Force Academy. I would focus my attention solely on the Falcons.

If this program cannot do better than Schiano they should have kept Jones.

I suspect we'll see a Monday presser with the new hire announced.
If he trots out GS I'll turn it off and tune back in when the new search begins in 4 years

Tried and found guilty on the Internet.

I'm not a fan of the hire, if it happens, but I have seen no definite proof to condem the man and ruin him pubicly.

Still love the Vols, but wouldn't waste time with football for the next 3-5 years when they get another chance to make the right hire.

I’m a SC native and my girlfriend graduated from USC so I’ll focus on the Gamecocks until both he and Currie are fired.

I don't know enough about Penn State to comment but I do know his coaching record and it sucks.

Doesn't matter if the report is true or not, simply being associated with Penn State during that period should be a black mark enough to not get a job anywhere.

So, we have two "revolt" threads on Greg Schianobthread. Any reason why you felt your question couldn't be asked in "the OFFICIAL Greg Schianobthread thread." Do you have some distorted self importance that you think random question deserve a seperate thread?

If somebody can show me some cold, hard facts that he belongs behind bars, I'll definitely be on board with your boycott; otherwise, I'm still a Vol and I'll support them, along with a few hundred thousand others.

From what I've heard so far, it's nothing but an internet lynch mob in operation. I highly doubt Urban Meyer would have hired and praised this guy witthout a thorough vetting.

Now, I'm not too sure how I feel about his coaching ability, though.

I can't believe Tennessee would hire this guy and expect to beat Alabama, Florida, Georgia, and S. Carolina. Currie can not be serious. If sh then he needs to go now.

The 10 or 100 fans on VN who don't like him are meaningless to the HC hire process.Not possible for Currie to come out of this process unscathed in some eyes.

Its a good sample size of how the fanbase feels. They're ripping this potential hire on Facebook too

If so many people hate the hire and are making it known, hopefully, Currie will get the message.

GS surely wouldn't be anywhere near the top of the list if I had my way. We need a proven winner on a big stage.

I urge everyone at Vol Nation to call or email John Currie and tell him that we will NOT support Coach Schiano given his links to the infamous PSU scandal. His phone number is (865) 974-1224 and his email is athleticdirector@utk.edu. Let's let the administration know that we are not on board with this possible hire.

The fact that you can google "greg schiano" and multiple articles, NY POST, USA Today, Washington Post, CBS News, from every major media and sports outlet come up with this verbiage....

McQueary testified that after he witnessed Sandusky in the shower with a young victim in 2001, he reported this to Nittany Lions assistant coach Tom Bradley. Not a surprise, Bradley told him, because Schiano — a former Penn State assistant who went on to become head coach of Rutgers and the NFL’s Tampa Bay Buccaneers — had reported witnessing the same thing to him in the early 1990s.

“I can’t remember if it was one night or one morning, but [Bradley said] that Greg had come into his office white as a ghost and said he just saw Jerry doing something to a boy in the shower,” McQueary testified. “And that’s it. That’s all he ever told me.”

That's all I need to know and hopefully this vetting process that eliminates mnay good candidates will eliminate this bad one.

Also google how well schiano is like by his former players, how peyton cussed him out, etc.

It can't be schiano. It better not be.

Count me in. 43 years down the drain. I’m half out after watching that ish show vs Vanderbilt last night. Hiring an accomplice to child molestation would push me completely out.

The past ten years of Tennessee football has been unbelievable, even unthinkable, and seemingly Hell bent on it's self destruction. :crazy: We're at the crossroads and Currie needs to get this hire right. Enough is enough.
