I find the silence from the AD's office a bit puzzling. lamonte just basically implied that Hart was in "Fantasy land" for even calling him about Gruden. If I'm Hart, I take exception to that and issue a press release clearing it all up and defending the UT football program and why the HFC position is attractive.

The AD's office may be collectively soiling themselves if this is all true

I am still amazed that at 2:26 CST, on a Friday afternoon, that there are over 9300 users online. Says a lot about the passion of our fan base. Whoever gets the job, the best damn fans in College Football come with it! Passionate and shedding some Orange tears but our blood still runs orange!

Not me I'm DONE with this! This University is being run by IDIOTS now! Not the same place.... Similar to the country as a whole I guess.

None of it makes sense...that's why I'm still sitting in my seat.

Mad props to a guy who takes the least favorite coaching candidate and makes a gif inserting his face into a .gif of the animal house bid scene when Bluto sees founder.

Am I the only one cringing at the Butch Davis talk. I don't like this option at all.

To be fair about this, you are in the Gruden thread that cant decide it if wants to remain hopeful or melt down.

EVERY coach not named Gruden is probably being cringed at.

Hang in there Smokey... when it is finally over... I will call it over....

In my line of work I have seen many people try to do something (you know what) before it's time.

I always say... let's cross that bridge when we come to it...it is possible (slight I know) that the AD and the agent are trying to buy time til Dec 15 time period because of the pressure coming down

This is a serious question- do u have your own sources? I really thought u were just trusting jay, dto, etc. maybe I have u mixed up with someone else.

Wow, Rucker made a great point.

If Tennessee is an elite program, like the fans think, why do they think Gruden is the only "good" hire?

Pretty fantastic logic...

Most logical fans dont think that, just the ones who know little about sports in general. There are universities and coach's going to BCS bowls every year. Plenty of good options available.

People... CJG can wait two weeks, get paid by ESPN for the rest of his contract, get a check from Tampa.... ******AND******* make a little MORE MONEY from UT ... all if he just waits a few days. An interesting spin on the time value of money. Wait a little time, and CJG gets more money. Think about it!!!! Its like waiting/treading water thru the end of your year for the bonus, then jumping for the new job, big payout.

UMM. If we are paying him 7mill, You think he really cares about a check from espn or tampa?

The bashing means nothing to me. I don't base my life, pro or con, on the way I'm perceived on the internet. I've said that from the beginning and I mean that. If it makes them feel better, let it rip. Glad I can be theraputic.

I will say this though: I try not to be a vindictive person. I fail at that often. It takes too much energy. However, until we announce a coach, this isn't over. No matter how bleak it may look now, we haven't introduced a new coach. I understand being disappointed at this time. I'm here to accept my role in that disappointment as I have assured I would. But, if the worm turns again like it has so many times in this whole cluster of a situation, I'm not sure the principle amount of venom won't be returned....quite possibly with some interest that has been earned.

I like that ^^^. I feel I jumped into the threads late when it was Gruden VI, but I'm willing to see it through and hold out hope until we have closure. :matrix:
