First thing I wanna hear is “I don’t give 2 craps about there shower or eye discipline. We are not here to be champions of anything except the sec or nation. We are not life champions. Our line will be nasty on both sides of the ball. When we win you will know you got beat when we lose you will feel like you’ve been beat. Nick Saban Kirby smart shark humper I’m coming for ya. We will win

First thing is take away all the orange. No orange uni's, no orange helmets, no orange logos, no orange buildings, no orange stadium. Repaint everything crimson. Give them crimson uniforms, paint the locker room crimson and so on. Rename the team the "alabama whipping boys". You call them the alabama whipping boys over Butch's megaphone every chance you get. The media must use the term alabama whipping boys or get cut off. You tell them they are not allowed to call themselves Tennessee, because Tennessee is NOT alabama's whipping boys. You let them know they are going to get so pissed off when they see crimson they will want to break a chair over their head, because that's the way I feel. You tell them they will have to EARN the orange back, and eventually, if they get the job done, they can take pride in calling themselves Tennessee again, but not until they get the job done!

That stuff only works in Mr. Rogers neighborhood of make believe! Kids that have to be RECRUITED care less about the color orange than you probably realize. Wrong motivation. I get where you're going but that would only work with kids on team who grew up Vols fans. My guess the majority of those aren't on scholarships.

1) I know this is a surprise to a lot of you but football wasn't invented in Knoxville, Tennessee .

2) is this a great country or what?

3) if Tennessee kids don't wanna play here, we'll beat their ass with kids who WANT to be here

4) you have the reputation as being a dumb media/fan base but I'll teach you a lot. Just watch and listen a bit

5) my family won't be living here. We've seen what you do to people.

6). The line for this job wasn't very long to begin with. Maybe you need to let that sink in

7) I hope you all got pics of those sorry-ass gray uniforms. You won't be seeing them for awhile

I want a guy who is either an offensive or defensive mastermind.... it just needs to be a system that works consistently and can incorporate young talent.

Justin Wilcox once said that his D scheme was simple for his guys to learn but hard for O's to read. That is what I would like to see.

You want Petrino if we can't get Kelly or Gruden.

In a few years.....

"Yes, I really respect Nick. It was great to get to go head to head against him twice a season these past 4 years. I really appreciate all he's done for college football. It was incredible to have an 8 game winning streak against his team as he closed out his career. Not many people can say they accomplished that like we did here at the University of Tennessee. Go Vols!"

Don't really care what he says in an opening press conference (although I did love the edge that Kiffin's cockiness brought to the table). All that really matters, though, is the on field results. Bring me a coach who can win an SEC championship.

1. I’m all about winning. I’m not a big rah rah guy. But, I do understand what good football is and what type of athletes it takes to win in this conference. I, of course, want to graduate good citizens that do well in the classroom. But, I know that the main yardstick that I will be judged by is wins and championships. And, that’s the way that it should be.

2. I am not necessarily married to any particular offensive or defensive system. I don’t believe that you should try to mold your players to systems but the other way around. I plan to hire coordinators and assistants that share that philosophy and can teach multiple schemes.

3. I hope to never insult your intelligence. I am familiar
with the history of Tennessee football. It has been done here and can be done again. We have everything that we need to be successful. You are an intelligent fan base. You know what good football looks like. I hope I will never pee on your shoes and tell you that it’s raining.

Now, I will take any and all questions.

(Please name some things you would want to hear. Thanks)

1. Lots of hand clapping followed by a "Work Like Heck quote"

2. Comments about how rival coaches have to commit violations while a recruit is on campus at UT

3. *DERP*

4. Gonna build this program "Brick by Brick" we need Champions of Life with 5 Star hearts who thrive on leadership reps.

I think that covers what we got from the last 4 coaches
