Which of these these attributes are the most important, if you had to choose one?

The sad thing in all this - besides the question itself, is that most people would support hiring someone who has been an AD. The last two UT ADs had been ADs before. Not only was Hart an AD; his father was an AD before him. That lineage didn't stop either from making pathetic choices when it came down to the most important part of the job ... hiring a football coach. At Tennessee it's pretty damn simple; if the football team is successful and the fans are happy, everything else falls into place.
 
So, you are saying that the next time we hire an AD, it does not matter what their qualifications are? And we, as fans, should not have any input into the process?

OK.

I am so glad that we did not take that approach on the last Head Football Coach search. I think some people should just go back to the Gruden XXXXIV thread. Now, that was useful.
Fans should have no input on the inner dynamics of the football program or any department at UT. Have you read your own thread????

That is the funny thing. Most everyone assumes that I have a (barely) hidden agenda.

I am wondering: can we not simply discuss why we were so bad in so many sports for the last 10 years or so? Is it because we have had bean counters when we should have had someone who has run a football program before? Or is it more important that they are a VFL who cares about Tennessee? Maybe we have simply had bad luck in our hires.

At this point, however, I think it is one of the most important questions we should be asking. I am sorry if it brings up a lot of old - and new - wounds.


Go watch some hoops fool
