Just found this on facebook. I did not post this just thought I would share it. I call BS



Jeff Fisher set to be named as the Vols new head coach! Fisher will be bringing Ronnie Lott as his Defensive Coordinator, Ryan Nece as linebacker coach and Bruce Matthews as the offensive line coach! Those that have noticed Gruden around Knoxville have hoped he would be the next head coach of the Vols, but sources close to the program said he was hired as a consultant to put a coaching staff together. Ryan Nece played linebacker for Gruden at Tampa Bay and is the son of Ronnie Lott who was a teammate at USC with both Jeff Fisher and Bruce Matthews where they won a National Championship in 1978.

Yeah I'm not buying that either.

I’d be happy with this minus the whole Jeff Fisher part.

Miles is 64 years old man. We need to hire someone that has some mileage left in them. This program needs stability and we won't get that with him. We'll be searching for another coach in 5 years or less when he's ready to retire.

I didn't mean him specifically.

That's just an easy way out which is typical or Tennessee

Just another reason why I don't do fb. Only college gig Fisher would be interested in is USC so I agree. BS

I agree. I don't think Currie is going the typical Tennessee route though. I think he was brought in to bring Tennessee football back and he's going to do everything in his power to make it happen.

Well he's off to a great start with Fulmer and Manning looking for the right fit and convinced Haslam to foot the buyout


Assuming all that's been reported is correct

If in fact Currie has his guy, it stands to reason he would have made plans with said coach after KY to move the timeline up on the hire. I mean Ray Charles could see that there was a really good chance Jones wasn't making the Vandy game. I have to believe we know something in the next few days.

Other than Fisher and maybe Nece that group is pretty good.

Ronnie Lott was a beast and could help the back end of our Defense and Mathews could help our oline. Of course, a blind squirrel could probably help our line.

Not that I think this is going to happen but I’m pretty sure Gruden has advised before on coaching searches. Which is what I worry about...he’s not wanting the job but advising on it but that’s the BVS part of me.

Wow.


Note: I'd be very cautious about believing everything that's
Going to come out over the next couple days. Anyone who had any kind of encounter with his is gonna make him out to be a terrible person no matter what was said
