Empty Seats In Our Future?

Goodness people who do y'all expect us to hire? Harbaugh, carrol? These good coaches have to start somewhere. We are def not gonna pull any high level coaches away from their job that they have rebuilt. So we're left with up and comers. People can quit going to games and supporting the team that's fine but don't blame others for you having unreasonable expectations! I'll be there supporting the team that puts on the orange and white every chance I get!

In your opinion what is the difference between reasonable and unreasonable expectations?

Heard a quote from a Kentucky fan this week that was making fun of us. I didn't laugh because he spoke words of truth. He said if Kentucky needed a basketball coach they went out and took one from another school. If Texas or Alabama needs a football coach they go out and take the one they want. Tennessee....they take any up and comer they can get from Podunk University and wonder why they can't compete for a title. Roars of laughter from everyone all around except me. I knew this guy nailed it.

I won't support the university in anyway after this ****! No gear, no games and no donations. I believe the story that Gruden only wanted more money for assistants, and Hart didn't make it happen. Also, I don't think Hart really wanted Gruden. At this point if TN isn't going dedicate to being a major program I'm not supporting them. I will always be a TN fan, but enough is enough!!! F*** this S***!!!!:finger3:

Me either.I just can't believe Tenn has fallen this far that we can't even hire a good coach(Gruden)!All these other clowns they are talking about are jokes!Strong coaches in the Big least and still lost 2 games!Patterson and Stoops aren't going anywhere.Not that I wanted them anyway.Wonder how Hubbs,Hyams and Rucker are gonna feel when their subscriptions start to fade away as Tenn becomes like Vanderbilt?

If we hire Dumbo Fisher I hope they can't give tickets away. I don't wanna watch mediocre football. His sorry a$$ will win 8-9 but ALWAYS lose to bama, UGA, UF and LSU/SC.

I understand where your coming from but 8-9 wins sounds ok to me for at least the next 2 years just sayin

Dude, give your personal vendetta a rest. Fisher would be a great hire.

Yes and Dooley was a great hire. Go away you f'ing nimrod. A guy who loses to ACC trash with far superior talent is a great hire for thr SEC.
Here's a hint, Santa isn't real either.

I travel every day in East Tennessee towns and counties. Speak with hundreds of managers, foremans, floor leaders, factory workers and construction people of all walks of life. Every single one is so fed up with our situation they don't want anything to do with a "Well, we grabbed anyone that might take the job" mentality that we have had. Not a single soul has said they would stand behind the team no matter what....NO ONE. So, drink the fool aid, junior.

Sure you do, negaVol. Educate yourself to small sample sizes.

Im no bandwagon or fairweather fan. I have loved the Vols since the early 70's. I ve seen the highest highs and the lowest lows this program has ever had and I'll be in the stands whenever I can be there. If there's only 12 other people there that's cool... No lines at the concession stands or bathrooms.

I admire your ability to be a positive UT Vol fan...no matter what.
I love UT and it's fans...just that some of us are outta patience and it's nice to hear one person look at "the cup half full" once in a while...

It's a required trait to be in the band...they don't get to express their opinion...just keep cheering em on no matter what...do you play an instrument? lol!

Wished when we donated for season tix that we could get stock about like the Green Bay Pacers Do. Then when selection for coach we could vote on it.This AD Is making we wonder what is he thinking.

I'm waiting for all the details to come out later. I'll make my decision then on whether to purchase tickets next year. If Hart and Cheek did indeed screw this up then I'm out.
Click to expand...

what details are you hoping to get...
We're not going to hear anything else about Gruden...It's not like Hart or anyone in the AD will come out and say they really pressed hard for Gruden..
As for Gruden's camp, all they say is we were never interested in Tennessee

It's just a shame alot of the fan base got hot on the idea of Gruden, so now no one's going to seem good enough..

Al. got theirs from a losing pro team, Tx. got theirs from an ACC North Carolina. So what is his point.

I get tickets and parking pass through my job so the donation is not really an issue but the past couple of years I haven't even had the desire to drive up there and watch. I really hope Hart can pull a rabbit out of his butt and land Gruden, Stoops, Patterson, Gundy or Petrino. Anyone else and I stay in wait and see mode mainly because I just don't want to put in the time and effort if we're gonna be doormats. Guess I'm unabashedly fairweather.

Hearing a lot of negative talk from almost every Vol fan. First, everyone that had it with Fulmer's outlawism and downward slide, the rape of UT by the Kiffin regime, Dooley's failure and now the wild goose chase of Gruden. Tennessee is the clown of the SEC.

No wonder fans are fed up with the whole UT thing. Hearing a lot of talk that unless they make a hire that makes people want to rush to the ticket office they will not waste their money on mediocrity. I'm at that point, too.

Strong will land a top 5-10 class this yr and will have more top 255 wins next season and beat atleast 1 of our rivals next yr, something Dooley couldnt do in 3.
