If you’re referencing Schiano, I disagree. WE didn’t hire Pruitt. We just didn’t “shut up and take it” like the media wanted over Schiano. Errybody worried about “black eyes” and ridicule from national talking heads need to realize they’ll mock us til we stop them. They mocked us cuz Peyton couldn’t beat Florida. They find a way.well, the last time UT fans got involved in a coaching search didn't work out very well.
I would never email a coach other than Jon Gruden in regards to the Vols coaching job. I am sure Coach Dykes is a fine man but I am just not sure he is up to continuing the standard of excellence we expect and demand. We are about winning championships and I am sure we will find the right coach to take us back to the level of championship winning we deserve and expect. I still think its going to be Coach Gruden but if not Coach Gruden it will be someone who is capable of taking us back to winning championships again.
You may be right...not a bad idea. However I don't believe the Institutional Elites actually care what anybody outside their sphere thinks. They literally sit up on a Hill and assume the season ticket orders will roll in no matter what product they present. And historically, they are correct.White needs a veteran member of this board as one of his inner circle advisers on his coaching searches, and I mean that seriously. No one else in that in that room with him will speak up and say “look man, these people will literally nuke hires.”
Still think UT would be in a better position with Schiano than what it is now....... Not a great position, but better.If you’re referencing Schiano, I disagree. WE didn’t hire Pruitt.

Danny White is going to hire THE BEST AVAILABLE CANDIDATE! KEY WORD AVAILALBE. People can take that however they want but the pickings are slim at best! PJ Fleck said not interested. We as VN can say oh let's pay this or that, well guess what if the guy is any good his current school is going to match it. Matt Campbell will not come. We offer him $6million, Iowa st. will do the same!If Danny White hires Dykes, that means we've picked up two multi million dollar losers in the space of a few days.
