None of your first tier coaches were realistic IMO. That's my point. Of the coaches of there willing to move I think hart has gotten a good list together. If these 3 say no he will deserve some criticism IMO.

You may be right. I just listed a few though. There are many others too. I think we can agree that Hart will be judged on this hire two to three years down the road. Stakes are higher than I can ever remember. It will be difficult for our program to dig out from another lackluster hire. Season ticket sales are down, merchandise sales are down and donations are not what they need to be. We are lucky to be selected for the 3:30 time slot for CBS. It will be sad to see beautiful Neyland with 60-80k regularly. Whomever this coach is they better be able to excite the fan base and then give them something to cheer for. Enjoyed the discussion Bruin.

Apparently some rumor is going around the web that I reported Tennessee had offered the job to Jim Mora. That's 100% false

Where do y'all even come up with this garbage?

I have consistently said from Day 1 that Mora had no interest. RT @ocerla: @wesrucker247 you sure you didnt say anything about Mora?

Thanks wes!!! Gtfo

<----- Hates Bama and I want Hart and his other Bama minions the hell out of there. The only thing Hart has proved to me during this coach search is incompetence as an AD.

This... I get so mad at this coaching search because those bammer fans can get a big name hire, and when we get ready to go after on somehow we can't for all these "reasons" Well heck fire, we are Tennessee. We ought to have three times the coach that bammer or any other school has. Dang it all if vandy has a more stable program then us. And all we have are bush league lower than truly greatest of all time coaches. I refuse to believe this. We are Tennessee. We are better than b league coaches. Its time for the return to greatness..

Soon

A four star recruit who is committed to GA likes the idea of Charlie Strong at Tennessee: Naim Mustaffa
 
Tennessee conducting one final interview tonight in NYC, Jim Mora of UCLA. Tennessee previously interviewed Charlie Strong (in Indy on Fri.) and Mike Gundy (at his home on Sunday). Sources tell us Tennessee is expected make an announcement tomorrow out of that pool of 3.
-Wes Rucker

So, Rucker didn't do this update? Where did it come from?
Rucker is a joke with a smokescreen mission. If it is true I will be upset for the following reasons:
1) Gruden's agent was not lying (Fantasy)
2) Mr. Hart did not have to give us any info on the search. But @least tell the mass of fans Gruden said no
3) Gruden could have said thanks but no thanks

Wait, so Mora isn't in play either??? lol So who IS in play? I've heard rumors that all 3 and Fisher are out of play now...we need to get to the bottom of things and where these rumors are coming from.

Btw, couldn't help but think: "I have heard from a couple of places in the last hour or
so that Hart is planning on doing another interview in the morning in
New York."
I wonder where Jon Gruden will be headed after Washington tonight, New York perhaps? :)

Good post. I agree totally that hart will be judged with this hire and it will be 2 and 3 years down the road. Most will judge him with the wow factor at the presser and that means nothing to me. Just win!!! That's all that matters and we have some names that I believe will do just that!
 
Eli is to the NFL what Spurrier is in NCAA when calling a 3rd down time out. You know he's gonna find a way and not a ¥€€#$?! You can do about it.
 
Well I am with Liper. I have kind of mentally checked out. I am just not paying attention anymore. I am holding firm that it is Gruden. Will not believe otherwise until I see a different coach. I don't think anything will break tomorrow or Wednesday. Can't really say why, just doesn't feel right.

@wesrucker247 FYI, VQ has multiple threads with posted quotes from you on Mora interview. Was trying to give you credit on story.
