Never in my lifetime did I think I’d say it but yeah, I’d take Kiffin gladly.

I just don’t understand what we did to deserve this. Against my better judgment I looked st the Bama boards earlier today. It was painful. Many comments of how this is our karma.

I'm open to the following:

Les Miles
Lane Kiffin
Norvell
Campbell
Frost - Probably already lost out on that one
Tee Martin

A few days ago, some of these names wouldn't be an option, now I'm happy with any of them

Here's another thought while I'm still 3 pages behind. If fans wanted Gruden to come to Tennessee before learning of Haslam's back stab with Schiano, why would the back stab make people go out on getting Gruden? Shouldn't we demand Gruden even louder? It's not like Haslam's move magically made Gruden a bad coach in a matter of hours.

Food for thought.

I think the majority would love to have Gruden, just as we did. We just feel like, after what happened today, there's no real possibility today Gruden will want to come coach at Tennessee.

Now that I've had a chance to process the events of yesterday. My opinion is simple, no need for a coaching search at this time. The first order of business is to remove Currie from his post, ASAP. Now, you can choose to sit here and complain, or you can start sending emails. I tweeted Davenport yesterday evening and plan on sending emails once I get to work this morning. I still don't know what to make of what happened yesterday.....I cannot comprehend how Currie could not release a statement. Complacency will be my reasoning for his removal. If he was or wasn't meeting with Schiano, he had a responsibility to address the people that employee him, that is us!

Dude, Frost just finished an unbeaten season and that UCF team would demolish half the teams in the SEC.
Hope you're right that we've reached out to Brohm. Personally, at this point, I think we reach out to Norvell too. Most anyone is better than the road we were about to go down earlier today.

if enough people buy that nonsense, then the Schiano fiasco becomes "mission accomplished".

fans are so relieved that the Schiano deal is dead, they willfully swallow a lower tier coach and VOILA.

Tennessee football stays stuck in mediocrity.

Miracles do happen and Gruden is the RIGHT coach for the Vols.

Can’t believe people are still spewing this garbage. If he wanted to coach it would be done. He obviously does not. And with how our program looks right now we are not getting a home run. I hate it to but it’s real.

Where are all the "insiders" now? LOL

For the love of UT Football, the "insiders" should be the least of your worries. Start sending emails demanding the removal of Currie and Davenport. I can't believe he did not have her blessing in this horrible decision.

Is it your contention that Currie created this giant cluster**** just so we would accept a lesser name as our next HC? If so, you're out of your friggin' mind. At this point, Currie and everyone who signed off on hiring him needs to be fired. All levels of admin need replacing. What Currie just did has left our program in more of a shambles than any of his predecessors, or any former head coach. I'm truly worried if we ever recover from this, at least in my lifetime. And maybe I'm being a little dramatic, but I seriously question if some of you truly understand just how much damage has been done. I'll always root for the Vols, but the admin makes it hard when they seem so dedicated to fostering a losing culture through their own idiocy.

Good news is that even Penn State was able to bounce back from the err...Penn State scandal and it's cast of characters. Tennessee is bigger than Currie, Butch, Schiano, etc. It may take time, but we will be back.

Yeah we are only 15 years removed so far.

If we were going the Coordinator route, it should have been Venables, but for some reason no one is mentioning him. I know it's the Gruden thread, I'm still on board, but very unsure it will happen.

As for now I would want: Gruden, Kiff, Venables (if going for a coordinator).
