Official Press Conference Thread

[Birmingham]

You guys have to be happy with the way he speaks of the program. It sounds like I haven't given Kiffin enough credit. I know he has to prove it on the field first but it sounds like a very good guy and more importantly a very focused and determined coach.

 

[UTAlum02]

I haven't done a damn thing either. Sure is fun.

GO VOLS! Kiff is the man!

 

[bleedorange0037]

it's not as if he really needed a number or even a jersey to sit on the sidelines and waste away

 

[tnvolsfan85]

Oh I love seeing him in orange!!!

 

[BartW]

I have a research paper and presentation due tomorrow, and I've done next to nothing. Been on here all day!

Does anyone have a link to audio of the press conference in it's entirity. I have a relative traveling and wants to hear it

 

[kennyc]

Pretty good job on the ESPN short blurb. I hope he can hit the ground running & get s'more talent in here!

 

[RDU VOL#14]

I love how the adidas logo is on the back of the jersey for the press conference. No marketing involved there...

 

[bleedorange0037]

haha, good catch, i didn't even notice that

MAKING MY DEBUT ON THIS SITE AFTER SPENDING TIME IN A TIGGER TROLL INFESTED KNS.

The not having breakfast would not be appropiate the morning after the game was a sign of class and respect.

I gotta say, this was the worst pose/picture EVER. No smile, it's just a straight-up, "I wish I were out golfing today" look.

It was just a quick screen shot I took from the press release video...not a photo that was released by the Univ. or the media.

 

[Volsaholic]

I'm glad to see that he recognizes the resources he now has to work with and can compare them to programs like USC's facilities when recruiting

 

[Dustin4Vols]

he seems liek a kool guy. i think he will do good

Welcome to the board, I thought his references to CPF were all respectful.

 

[sMi.Spite]

I sorta got a feeling he is a little..."phony". Maybe not. The kinda guy that tells you what you want to hear, and not the truth. I hope not but thats my initial impression.

Thats just your bias showing.

You should probably tuck that in.

I was thinking the same thing.

I dont think the UT press corps is going to come up with a better picture.

 

[bleedorange0037]

hey ruslt, i think it might be time to change that avatar, hopefully the ship is about to right itself

 

[molsen81]

I don't know why there's negativity on this hire. I'm satisfied so I could care less about idiots like Mark May.

I thought his comments on the facilities where on the money and hilarious.
Any recruits that were watching well...I don't see how they could not have been impressed on multiple levels.

GO VOLS.

 

[VOL RN]

i didn't see kiffin smile maybe 4 times during the entire conference.

 

[Section_P_Row_48]

Does this mean Brandon Warren's getting a new number?

I thought the same thing... They should've put 21 on the jersey for the 21st head coach...

Guess they thought that would be disrespectful to the Representative of North Carolina, Mr. Shuler.
