I may get screamed at for this. But I DO NOT like the narrative that's being played out in the media insinuating the TN Administration is racist? I get we are in the middle of war, but this is going to take it to a completely different level. It could force the hand to make change, but I don't agree with it!!

Got something to say? I'm always here...but with the current situation in the AD, there is just not much to say. We have a crisis of leadership that has to be fixed before the coaching matter even needs to be addressed.

It's funny how the boards resident doubting Thomas has become Richard the Lionhearted when he thinks nobody is around. You've been a wilting violet this whole time with your "Grudenometer" reading updated multiple times daily, until now, when we have an obvious issue of leadership. All of a suddenly you've painted your face Orange and are rallying the troops.

You have accusations, level 'em. Or...continue being passive aggressive. Seems more your style.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 so I wasnt just an ass
 
Question.

If somehow Currie is fires and the Haslams lose their grip on UT and someone like Blackburn is hired.

Do we still have a shot at a big time coach?

Would they still come here if they saw a power switch and had a respectable AD to work for?

Also, by big time coach I mean Gruden! (Cause Gruden TIL it isn’t!!!)
 
Twitter

Feldman reporting that the Wolfpack have stepped up. Best thing that could happen is another coach realizing that they don’t want to be Haslam’s patsy.

I'm pretty damn sure he has the message that he's not our ideal candidate.

His twitter is a full-on disaster.

@BradFullington
Sources: Gruden signed a MOU w/ @Vol_Football last Friday & wanted 2 stipulations:
1. Seven days to put his staff together
2. Complete control.
@John_Currie would not agree. Wanted to announce coach Sunday, day after season ended. We got Schiano. #FireJohnCurrie #facts
7:44 AM · Nov 30, 2017

Then he didn't sign an MOU because an MOU would be initiated by UT and if it didn't include Gruden's requirements, he wouldn't sign it.

I agree. Taking advantage of the racism card for gain. Not okay, IMO. Those people wouldn't be saying this if we weren't otherwise botching the search.

I would have hope, but no matter what we would get a good quality hire. But I have no doubt he would try!:rock:
