Beaver came in last night and said "I'm hear to face the music", yell and insult me at will...but he was cool and no one (well maybe one exception) insulted him ... which I thought was very respectable of everyone, I wasn't here for the early Beaver stuff but I was a bit in awe that everyone was nice, let down, but nice ...

Thanks for the response. I saw Beaver's posts. Lots of respect for coming back in. I kinda always thought of him as a paid lobbyist (with TN roots). This whole thread was so intriguing! I am most curious about UTVolinExile - what happened when he fell off the board and never returned-mainly cuz I leaned on his posts a lot - curious if I completely misread, but not angry, just curious. I posted a long time ago that it's an open forum; the onus is on the reader to choose what to believe. I wanted Gruden, but it was not to be, and quite honestly, when UT won the national title, my life didn't actually change a bit! Bottom line, I've LOVED this thread! Wasted way too much time, but got a lot of laughs, saved a lot of great gifs, loved the people - never get on the FF (only RF) unless it was a Gruden thread. Thanks everybody! Go Vols!

Pretty sure we all know why they were applauding now...

I'm not sure about UTVolnExile, I'm sure others here know something but I haven't heard ... I actually think there were 2 of them, 1's still around, or was

I'm pretty excited about CJP. I think he'll do well. Getting the kids on board and excited will help our team a ton - they had quit on CBJ this year.

I do love that old school southern flair though. His accent is definitely Deep South/Alabama/Georgia. Sounds like he stepped out of Gone with the Wind. In Tennessee we have a more Appalachian/Hillbilly flair. Definitely going to enjoy his press conferences more than the past 9 years.
 
After I asked him how he felt about Pruitt in the meeting...

Yeah, first thing he said was he is gonna meet with each one of us to set goals... i liked that a lot

Finally got to watch the presser.

I like when he started getting revved up he went into football coach preacher mode! I'm cautiously optimistic. Staff means everything to this hire. Being a first time HC it could overwhelm him quickly, especially with the wrong people.
