Just because a coach that wasn't ever planning on staying at UT long term is retiring from the college game and we are likely to replace him with a younger version of himself doesn't mean our entire staff is desolving.

SHUT UP

You learn that today or yesterday?

I'm just going to chill and see what happens. Hope everything settles down, we get a good recruiting class and the coachs prove everyone wrong that are talking this crazy stuff. Either way can't wait till next year and I'll be cheering for the Vols

1st time I have heard it has been a non factor for over a decade. Interesting if true.

It's hard to explain exactly why. Unless you know the back story, which begins 10 years ago when Petersen was at Oregon, with a bump turned into much more than a bruise.

Petersen's son Sam had just turned 1, an apparently healthy toddler playing with his older brother in the stands during a preseason scrimmage. But when he fell and hit his head, a routine examination revealed a nightmare. Sam had a brain tumor. And though it was successfully removed during an eight-hour surgery, doctors soon discovered the cancer had spread to Sam's spine.

As football season unfolded, Chris Petersen somehow balanced the 80-hour work weeks and family life. His wife, Barbara Petersen, spent a full month living at the hospital with young Sam. Chris divided his time between Eugene and Portland, 100 miles away, where his young son was undergoing treatment.

"I can't imagine going through what he did, working eight to five," said Oregon assistant Tom Osborne, one of Petersen's closest friends. "Let alone going through all of that. I don't have any idea how he did it."

No one's sure. But when Osborne says Petersen isn't the typical coach -- "It's usually ego-driven, but Chris doesn't have an ego," he said -- it begins to make more sense, and to sound like more than idle chatter.

But you're wondering about young Sam Petersen. The family celebrated his 11th birthday earlier this summer. He's healthy, a frequent presence around Bronco Stadium -- "Really into football, and the Broncos," Chris said -- and a constant reminder of why his father doesn't seem very interested in uprooting for the next big thing.

I almost regret writing this, because it could "Impact" recruiting, but to be honest, I don't think it much matters anymore..


Sirmon and Wilcox will follow Petersen to UCLA and this is becoming more and more real by the second.

Hiestend's office is already cleaned out, per sources that work in the complex

Thompson is interviewing for the UAB job, pending us promoting him to DC which may save him for us.

Hinshaw is gone, and that's basically all there is to that, it seems.

Essentially, it seems we will be replacing everyone EXCEPT:

Dooley
Chaney
Russel
Joseph

God help us.

Does UT offer direct flights to California from Neyland or something?

Dude, this post is almost, but really close, as big of an epic fail as your screen name. Stop recycling what you read on other boards as your own. Just the fact that you took that screen name tell me all I need to know about you. Mods should delete this crap.

Agreed ..... if it doesn't come out officially ....its all crap!!!!!!
