I went to lunch...came back to the frenzy...got all excited...and now silence.........but did anyone notice Dooley's presser today? He looked exhausted and lacked any sign of charisma.......it seems like the end for him is near.

Actually, I have been reading this board since 2009, but I forgot my login info and created a new account instead (shame on me).

And to retort your quote: "There is always one guy every day who says he knows who's coming to UT, it never fails."

Tell me oh wise one, which among you predicted the arrival of Derek Dooley? My guess is I can go back and find the same threads in 2009 about Gruden and about Lovie Smith and about 4 or 5 others on UTs "wish list".

The reality is always much more mundane than the dream.

I challenge you to go back to 2009 and find any thread like THIS. This might be the most fast paced, never dying thread I've ever seen.

Pearl was a good hire as well imo. Can't blame Hamilton for the BBQ fiasco. That was all on Pearl. It was more how Hamilton handled the situation afterwards that ended up being his downfall.

Kiffin was a HORRIBLE hiring. Look at the damage he did to UT in just one season. Rogers and Bray are his responsibility. He would have had us in all kinds of trouble with the NCAA.

If I were guessing, Gruden would come in after USCe. However, guys that I respect believe differently.

I'm in a wait and see mode like the rest of you.

I'm assuming Gruden is scheduled to come in some time this week to continue talks if they started at MSU.

....yeah it's over for today. Things were looking good for awhile.

One thing is for sure - Dooley has been told he's out. You can see it in his eyes.

He did look like he was about to cry

You mean take over coaching duties mid-season? I would think we'd have an interim and he would hit the recruiting trail.

What I've been told is that Gruden is meeting with several big donors this week. More of a formality thing. Haslam hammered out the basics of a deal after the MSU game.

Some have heard he is scheduled to be on campus, others have heard meetings with Hart.

OCI heard what he reported.

Basically, no one has ever seen a Dave Hart hire so following this has been crazy.

This all is looking good and while there is no way to 100% confirm any of this, there is way to much continuity of the information.

Thank you, good sir.

Have you read this entire thread? If a sign in the road says "STOP" do you drive through it, because it "obviously" wasnt there?

while I was typing the previous post I guess DTO came in and gave some more info...I say just from the look of Dooley today that he has been informed its over...he seemed hopeless and disinterested....or maybe he is just feeling bad and I'm reading too much into it.
