Apology (Copied from Football forum)

[WesternKyVol]

I was one of the ringleaders spreading hope and cheer. I sincerely thought we were going to hire Jon Gruden.

We've simultaneously made the worst hire in the SEC and alienated all the guys that have money.

Know what that means?

UT Football won't be good again in your lifetime! Kind of liberating, really. Now you know and you can stop wasting time with it.
I am very sorry for any hand I played in your misery this morning. I am 9 hours from Knoxville, but I sincerely hope that mattresses burn.

I'm done. Just hoops from here on out.

See ya

And what happens if this Jones guy actually does well?

 

[KingNick865]

Adios.

 

[theutvolunteers]

And what happens if this Jones guy actually does well?

7-5 would be a miracle.

Basketball is just as bad... Hell we can't even score 40 points a game

 

[SmokeyLives]

To the extent that you can, would you be willing to give some insight on what was going down with Gruden? Were there really meetings? Was Gruden really interested? Are the big money boys gonna bail or are they gonna roast Hart's ass and get Charles Davis in as AD?

 

[jbeard82]

See ya! Take Boro-vol with you.

 

[Minibull]

Bye! Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.

One less person in line at the urinal...score!

7-5 would be a miracle.

And he'll get blasted for it likely, yet if Fulmer had been rehired, the same people would praise him for bringing "stability" back.

Make it 2 less.

I'll take 8-5 in 2013 with a bowl game win. We need a coach who can show improvement with these kids. Jones can get it done. He has won wherever he has been.

I don't think you're going to have to worry about the line at the urinal except maybe at the Bama and Florida games.

UT football tickets are going to be cheap and available the next few years.

hoops? We cant score 40pts

 

[armchair]

8-5? We are probably going to be terrible next year! Who are our WRs? We've got nobody! The OL will take a step back. We will have a new, untested QB or the same old Bray. The defense probably won't be much better? We're looking at another year like this one.

 

[hatingbamaisawayoflife]

7-5 would be a miracle.

7-5 would be miracle next year with ANY coach we could've brought in including Gruden. have you seen the schedule.

and 7-5 would be VAST improvement over this year.

 

[VOL6479]

7-5 would be a miracle.

7-5 might be a miracle next year no matter who the coach is with that schedule.

WR, We have a half dozen guys ready to go.

OL, will be fine. I would actually look for them to improve under another year with Pittman.

Bray or Worley will be fine. Peterman will fit into Jones offense just fine.

The defense will have a new staff. IT HAS to be better. There is no way it could not improve.

7-8 wins with a bowl game is very possible. People are acting like we hired a coach who has proven nothing. THAT WAS DOOLEY, not BUTCH JONES.

Then gtfo.

 

[TP801]

Is there a list somewhere of all the posters who acted like and said John Gruden was a done deal. Then got mad when other posters called them out on their BS.

Thanks for the info thru all this WKV.

I'm pretty disapointed too but I'll bet, after we vent and have a beer or 12, probably more, we'll be back.

ps...no probably about it.

My, my little bro, did you forget your mess this morning?
