Update on Randy Shannon, DC

Agree. I wouldn't be surprised for the university to officially announce the hire in a press release a day or so prior to the presser if they plan to introduce the DC at a previously scheduled presser.
it will leak before any release as well.
 
I say you'd better be ready for Spangler. Dooley is most comfortable with him.
Dooley is afraid of hiring a big gun because:
1.he might show him up
2.he might stick a knife in his back
For historical reference see Fulmer's hire of Clawson. The end result will be the same.

I might be misreading, but surely you are not comparing the abilities of Clawson and Shannon here. I suppose you are comparing Spangler and Clawson. Your assessment of Dooley is pretty negative. I hope he is a much better leader than that. Any good leader of an organization is more than happy to be "shown up" if it means that the organization is more successful, and I personally believe that Dooley would love for that to happen.

As Ross Perot use to say "I surround myself with winners".

comparing a Spangler hire with the Clawson hire

and I don't see Dooley as that kind of leader. Look how he talks down his players and how I hear he is to work with (treats coaches). I think Dooley is a hard head.
 
DocVol has now capitulated in the Col. Vol thread posted by RexVol. That's how it is VolNation.
 
If the rumors about Shannon being refused a 3 year deal by Hart are true then Dave Hart is the guy that should be bashed. If he won't give agreeable terms to the best candidate available then he is cutting Dooley's legs out from under him before we ever get to 2012. Whoever Dooley hires other than Shannon will be a disappointment to many but the blame will rest with Hart.

I do think TN has spoken to RS, but Hart and Cheek are crossing T's and dotting I's with the NCAA. I am no way saying it's going to be RS, but there have been discussions..period

I am beginning to think all of these "sources" members have are just threads they saw on here.......

My sources at UT are reporting that classes start this week. Should find out Wednesday if they are correct
