Absolutely and totally...

not the same.

Not sure what you are getting at...

Either way, if one were to crack open a thesaurus, one would find that "absolutely" and "totally" are synonyms.

Johnny Majors is leaving the National Champ Pitt Panthers to come home to UT!!!

Sorry, OP, I couldn't help it. Don't really want to rehash for the n-th time anytime having to do with the leaving of CPF or the hiring/tenure (such as they were) of clk or CDD, the Gruden-is-coming-to UT madness, or anything prior to CBJ. It's over, done, history. What if scenarios about things in the past wear me out.

i agree with ya bro.the what if threads about chucky are getting old fast.until cbj wins big some vol fans will still have a coaching list full of pipie dreams that will never happen.go vols!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:banghead2::banghead2::banghead2::banghead2:

This is the saddest mess of a fan base I could imagine. Between this **** and the bring back Pearl petitions I am stunned that we think Bama fans are idiots.

Still hear this every time I remember that that FPOS Jon Garbage isn't the HC at Tennessee. Thank you, Mr. Hart, for passing on this abomination and his grossly over exaggerated coaching talents.

C'mon, the Gruden threads were a lot of fun. Even if you never thought he had a chance at coming, it was a good time to get to know some fellow Volnation folks.

You had chlamydia?

We may be pots that call the kettle black, but that kettle is way way way way way more black than us. And you're blind if you think otherwise.

cannot confirm nor deny

So did your bottle of pills end in 'cillin or 'cycline?

statute of limitations hasn't run yet. Legally I must pass on this question

I'm still waiting for the truth to come out as that nooga writer promised. He was going to shed the light on what happened to make him look like a fool, but amazingly never followed up with his promise.

I am with you on this for sure

Great point. Butch is just that good. Brother did assemble the best staff in America, too.

Of course it wasn't far fetched. He entertained the idea but ultimately wasn't given what he wanted. Both sides will never tell the entire story because it will make our people in charge look even worse than they have over the past decade.

If you think about it, if it was $6mill/yr that he wanted...why would we balk at that? At the time $4mill/yr was extremely high for Bama...but now, they would gladly pay him $8mill to stay.

We have always gone the cheap route, and I firmly believe that's what occurred in this case. Hart thought he could do nearly as good with another candidate for half that much. Guess we'll find out in the next few years.

my guess is that most of the truly elite head coaches that we wanted would have demanded that they answer to the UT system president via the AD and that any control the chancellor at Knoxville has over the football program be severed. That's pretty much how it was in the past and that's pretty much how it is now at the successful programs in the SEC. The UTK faculty got their noses under the tent through a combination of the academic scandal and Fulmer being in a weak bargaining position at the time. They did suspend the mandatory payoff thay the AD (read football program) was making to the academic side but there's no guarantee it won't come back. No other SEC school that I know of uses football revenue to fund academics. the Chancellor is beholden to the faculty senate and the average professor would rather have tenure and a raise than a winning football program. What they don't realize is that a winning football program will raise everyone's boat and they'd get theirs in the end anyway. Bottom line is we will never get one of these big name coaches so long as they have to bow and scrape to Cheek.

Do we REALLY have to rehash this again?
