Lost their whole secondary early in the nfl draft last year and are still playing well.

i never said they wouldnt. But they are losing alot again.

Swain says Peyton is heavily involved. Surely Currie has a big fish, right?

 

[Chief Vol 13]

Wow. That's not a fake account. Rock on, Aaron.

What did he say? Won't let me see the tweet.

 

[RiseToTheTop]

I'm sorry I retract my statement earlier I made about being okay if we hire Mullen.

I dont care for Mullen, Campbell, Taggart, Brohm, or anyone along those lines

At this point I will only accept an A+ hire. Someone that proves Tennessee is committed to turning around this program and University to it's glory days.

A hire like Mullen or Brohm says were trying, but not trying hard enough

The University has allowed the program to fall this far and now it is their responsibility to build it back up. Whatever the cost, whatever the sacrifice, it must be made.

you realize thats not going to happen i hope

Do you know when Currie left the game?

He is heavily involved......in golfing apparently.

 

[bcartervol98]

Hopefully it’s Petersen. If not, let’s roll with Mullen.

Exactly this. Watching this Washington game makes me want Petersen but I know I am setting myself up for disappointment.

I'm just not sure where we go if Petersen says no thanks and Mullen gets a raise and extension at State and if we missed on Frost I'm not sure what I would want after that.

 

[BruinVol]

Why not just leave after last year, then? He's a professional. I doubt he's going to undermine the head coach.

After last year he didn't have any leverage

dont expect it....that way youll be excited if it is. This is Tennessee. Do not expect someone to make a great hire.

Yeah Peyton Manning realllllllly gives a rats ass who we hire. He saw what was going on like the rest of us yet butch made it as long as he did.

Don’t let Petersen say no thanks. Keep raising the $ till he says yes

He’s not going to sabotage his own defense and torpedo his career because he has a squabble with the HC

 

[McGeesPub]

I'm not sure I haven't crossed over to the Lane Train. It would be a circus, and that may be the only entertainment we get out of this program for awhile.

 

[BigZiti09]

RVA making a quick trip to the ignore list.

You're a real happy guy.

What did he say? Won't let me see the tweet.

Rucker tweeted something like Aaron Medley is finally kicking well after four years and medley responded he should finally tweet about something people care about.

 

[Nash_Vol97]

Question: Does Currie leaving before the game indicate that maybe he wasn’t going to Starksville?

Mullen doesn’t have a game today. Currie could have stayed for the game and left after the game and still got to Starksville early enough to talk/interview Mullen tonight. Obviously, he could still be going to Starksville but why miss the game if he didn’t have to? (Unless he just didn’t want to watch that ****show) If he was going to the West Coast though he would have to leave earlier. I’m probably thinking way too far into it but oh well.

It sure looked like it.

I know what you are saying but maybe it was subconscious piss poor preparation.

 

[Chief Vol 13]

Petersen is whooping Leach. Throw a 10 million dollar base salary at him and tell him to bring it on down.

 

[New-Vols-Fan]

you realize thats not going to happen i hope

Then a New Vol Fan will no longer be a Vol Fan.

I won't be associated with mediocre, I won't cheer for mediocre, I won't accept mediocre when I know for a fact our fan base deserves better.

I will leave until the University decides they want to win.

I don't care what thats says about me as a fan. I have cheered for this team the past 5 years in the worste of times and I will not do it again until we make it clear we are trying to win.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

I’m just gonna sit here and hope for Petersen

 

[snowvols]

Mike Leach would not be successful enough here. He was one 10 win season in 16 years of being a HC. He averages a little over 7.5 wins a season.

 

[highspeed]

Bigger dumpster fire hire - Clawson or Schiano?!?!?!

Either way the dumpster is on fire.

 

[drvenner]

After last year he didn't have any leverage

And he has some now? If he tanked it on purpose, that's career suicide.
