As much as everyone is hating Currie right now, he said not to believe anything until HE announces the next coach. I could go on about the smokescreens, and cloak and dagger stuff, but I won't. I do remember that MIT said that things would look bad, and Currie would come out of this looking like a hero. So far that is not the case. But WHAT IF all this is is happening and then all of a sudden Currie is on the podium with Mr. Gruden? Not saying it's going to happen, however, I was a believer, both in 2012 and 2017. I hope it happens, but my meter has dropped to like 10%.

Except for that part where Beav went from 100% done deal to slinging **** like thenrest of us.

Im with you. But the outrage with Currie will pass the moment He hires someone. People slobbered all over Butch Jones after his presser. It’s just a sad day. I have nothing against Brohm at all. He’s a good coach. I hate the way TN operates and this was our window to change it and we apparently have missed it.

Butch was unhappy in his 2nd year as I watched him being interviewed. He wanted to say something about something he didn't like at the university like someone was forcing him to do something he didn't like doing. I thought of C.Jumper,(later), and Butch gave me the impression he was being handcuffed. Guess he knew certain people could make his job rough if he spoke it. I'd say Sexton gives his clients heads up about what to expect to the best of his ability.

It's not about Brohm. It is about who is hiring and what's being done to the program. Your attitude is exactly what they want.

There’s a time when you come to a fork in the road.

One way you realize you can send the emails, tweets, and make all the calls. At the end of the day though they don’t give a damn about us. All the responses you did get were computer generated fluff. They’ll hire who they see fit.

The other you can keep thinking you can actually change something and be gone forever.

This is true! 👍

Now comes all the smokescreens and back tracks if it happened though, such as it was all planned, and part of the overall mission to overthrow certain Boosters and whatnot.

You people are delusional. Brohm isn’t Dooley or Butch. He is a fantastic coach with a TON of passion. We will be fun to watch again. He will have our team running through brick walls. Just go watch some YouTube videos of him. Please get behind this hire, a negative reaction to this will make us all a laughing stock.

We already are, what's one more log on the fire...?

It’s foolish to make this kind of decision before interviewing all available/interested parties. If this decision is made before that happens, then I’ll be the first to tell you it’s because the Haslam’s have forced the hire... I’m not saying Brohm’s not the guy, but without at least interviewing a Sumlin, Miles, Martin, etc. how would you ever know that one of that for a fact? One of those other candidates could blow you away with their ideas and coaching scheme in the interview, but you’ll never know if you don’t at least sit down with them... This is very foolish and very irresponsible!

You obviously have a hair across your azz at Exile. Take it somewhere else. There are enough trolls hanging around as it is. I just wanna talk Gruden, Vols, beer, funny things and escape all the other ugliness that exists in the world.

Seems you have a personal beef here that doesn’t really matter in the greater scheme of things to me.

Then skip over my posts.

I’m not a troll, and me and Exile have had good conversations in the past.

Why don't you people understand? We have more or less been blacklisted by any top tier coach due to the Shiano fallout. It had to happen, but we are in no position to think we get a top name at this point. Get this hire over with then Currie GTFO.

Doesn’t matter as long as Haslam is around.
