I think we should hire Lloyd Carr. Look at his resume.















That's basically saying you want Fulmer back.

Some are saying we are in a fantasy world

The clock keeps ticking and nothing has been announced

What is gonna happen???

If we don't land Gruden get ready to be the laughing stock of the SEC with Dooley #2

Like I've said from the very beginning. The more time goes by the better our chances get. Therefor, I do not agree that this will be announced tomorrow or this weekend. I'm still with my same timeline.

Not discrediting other posters bc they may have better connections than myself.

TIFWIW

I think people need to think long in hard. If fulmers name is being mentioned it is highly unlikely he going to be our hc. I am almost 99% sure. If he is not hc why is he being mentioned?... lets think about.

1. It is a rumor of his name being mentioned.
2. It is a smokescreen.
3. There is more then meets the eye to this situation. U make your own assumptions?...

Here's my prediction:

Kirby Smart is hired by the weekend, chaos ensues.

Kirby better be a veritable coaching savant and win 10 games then in his first season. I have zero patience left for yet another coaching trial by fire at UT.

Honestly I can't see it. You would have to think that UT would know this would kill the fan base. Come on, Dooleys only signature win was this guy.

I'm not "in the know" enough to put a timeline out there but I've stated several times that I'm 100% sure it's Gruden. Unless a damn meteor hits him on the way to the podium it's Gruden. I know I don't post a bunch on these forums but I read daily and have been coming here and been a registered VN member since 2004. And the only thing I can do to try to lend some credibility and reassure some of you guys is something I stated here first last night:

If Jon Gruden isn't named the next head coach at the University of Tennessee I will never post on the VN again and retire as an active member. That's the best I can do to put anything on the line on a message board guys. Just believe me.......it's Gruden - it's really happening!

I believe you. Thanks for the post. :hi:

For the most part the assistant coaches under Fulmer are doing pretty well. He had to help teach them something, or maybe they taught him.

Guys the powers to be would shut football down if Butch Jones as a head coach, even if that was the best we could do. The media is controlling you stop listening to them .

Can anyone that mentioned legality issues explain what sort of legality issues that were standing in the way of a Gruden deal? Several people specifically mentioned certain legal issues were taken care of/about to be taken care of and that because of that we would see a press release soon.

Lloyd's looks better. He coached a Heisman winner.

He also has things that Fulmer doesn't. Like never had a losing record, a conference title this century, a bcs bowl this century, etc.

Anybody that wants Fulmer back should reevaluate their thoughts.
