Our new Coach could be Tony Elliott (rumor)

[VolMax]

Per my buddy who played on Clemson’s ‘81 Natty team, Elliott’s told Dabo he’s headed to Rocky Top.

Welcome Coach Elliott, I hope you’re here for the next 20 years!

GBO!

 

[JoAllan]

I know some don’t want......I’ll take it.

But for reference.......can you show us a picture of your buddy’s ring?

 

[chattavol420]

I sure as hell hope not. That would be the most anti climatic of all the coaching searches I can remember. But your story isn’t amazing here. Why would your friend automatically know because he played there 40 years ago?

Underwhelming if true

Boom!!!

Minus Boom

If they put out there that they are willing to spend $7-8M on a coach and come back with Tony Elliott....then just shut the program down

 

[rkvdg]

This will save me a lot of money. If true.

[VolGirl81]

I hope not, thought we were going for proven head coach experience. Figures. Typical Tennessee if true

 

[Border Vol]

I hope if this is true it's not a case of Tennessee being cheap arses again!

 

[norriscraftbasser]

Well now I can go to bed, after I throw my guts up!

GIVE YOUR ALL FOR TENNESSEE

Be careful, someone will tell you this is a garbage post and *gasp* put you on ignore

Tennessee football is well and truly dead if Elliott is hired. Or any coordinator, really.

 

[C.watson]

Underwhelming if true

I agree

 

[WestTnVFL971]

I will support whoever coaches the team. However, it will take much more than Tony Elliot to get the fan base back on board financially. You have to spend money to make money and with this bargain bin hire we may be the only program in D1 that is paying their coach less than the AD.

This.

I will hope they do good but no money and no expectations of anything.
