Ok guys, breaking news. I just got a text back from my source, who was just on the phone with his source. Apparently, Gundy is back on the table now after initially declining any interest in the job when Hart reached out to him. Gundy will be interviewed tomorrow, and Fisher on Monday. Also, he did confirm that Strong met with Hart yesterday and there may be a follow up interview next week if Strong is still interested.

Hasn't Hubbs confirmed that there have been, or soon will be, interviews with Gundy, Fisher and Strong. If so, that snychs with this info except for Gundy. I don't know if Strong and Fisher will get back to the top or not, but to call the head coach of FSU and a guy with Strong's background as "garbage" is stupid. I want somebody with some fire to win at Tennessee.

I'd take Strong over either of these 2. We need a D minded coach, especially with our current roster. The one thing Dooley did do good at was bring in O talent, but he had ALOT of swing and misses on D talent as was made evident by our secondary this pat year.

My source also has some connections at FSU. He told me that if you guys lose Fisher, you will make a strong run at Gary Patterson. Also, you guys might be going to the Big 12 soon (if Clemson agrees to come along with you).

Yeah a 10-2 coach in Fisher would be so terrible. It drives me nuts that our fans think they know everything about a coaching search and who would be the best coach for TN. Here's an idea, go find an AD job and you can hire whoever you like.

It drives me nuts that we have fans that think everyone should just blindly follow. Here's an idea, think for yourself.

Believe it or not, not everyone is good at their job and there are people who have never done said job that could do better. I wouldn't doubt for a second that we have fans here that could have made better hires than Derek Dooley and Todd Raleigh.

You're free to blindly follow and trust anyone you want just because they're doing a job you've never done but I think I'm just going to go ahead and form my own opinion. I mean, I've never flipped burgers for a living and I couldn't make billions selling them but I know I can make a better burger than McDonalds.

For the record, I'd guarantee that there are tons of fans that watch more football and are more football savvy than Hart. In the case of deciding which coach you think is better, fans have access to the same footage and stats as he does. If you watch football every weekend during the season, I'm not sure why you believe he is somehow superior in judging who the best teams and coaches are. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to know Nick Saban, Chip Kelly, Urban Meyer, Les Miles, Chris Petersen, Jim Harbaugh, Pete Carroll, etc. are good. Or that Charlie Weiss, Ron Zook, Derek Dooley, Ed Orgeron etc. are not good. Anybody who watches football can see it for themselves and figure that out.

I don't trust you after flip flopping in the matter of seconds but I'd much rather have Gundy than Fisher or Strong.

I wish we could ban the word 'source' from all threads until after the hire........ugh......if someone had a legit source, he/she probably wouldn't be creeping around a message board

Ok, go do it then. Everyone has a million dollar idea and talks about how much they could make, but are too lazy to get of their a$$ to do it. I'm not saying Hart is the end all be all judge of coaching, but his a$$ is on the line, not yours. Now everyone thinks they're a Monday morning AD and could do a better job.

And I blindly follow no one. I just don't telling a man getting paid more than you and me how I can do his job better.
