Strong would make a lot of people unhappy but I'm telling you he would do well at TN. He can get the premier kids from S, Florida to come to Knoxville like he did Louisville. He couldn't do that at TX. He has a a lot connections in this state as well. Always thought he was stupid going to TX. He belongs in southeast where his base is. He has himself a good OC now.

Only reason I don't want it to be him is just the backlash from people that don't what the guy is all about and what made him successful everywhere but TX.

I wouldn't hate it at all but I know a lot would

I think we would have won the SECE at least once if Strong had accepted in 2012.

Every long timer here knows Atl is legit. He is only putting it at 65% though. Tgat is not real confident imo. MIT Beaver I have no clue about, I guess we will find out. He sounds shady to me.

That's pretty confident, for a Gruden hire. It's usually 0%. If Atlanta Vol confirms that MIT is in a position to get the info, then I would believe it more.

Never a guarantee but we shall see.

I followed the Gruden stuff pretty closely last time and I personally think the rumors are much stronger and more believable this time around. A lot of things line up well and the timing seems better on both sides. Also sounds like the commitment to spend big may be there from UTs side. I was a serious doubter last time but not this time. We shall see. Nothing is guaranteed.

He also said it would have to be a total collapse on our part for it not to get done based on who’s involved.


My head is spinning

Atlanta Vol talking about Peyton helping this search and dealing with the boosters:

I actually think you have a point here. you should see some of these big money guys around him...I mean it is almost laughable...they start acting like kids..”hey sign this for my kid, sign this for me...sign that for my wife,hey do you mind doing this for me, hey lets tee it up at honors next time your in town”. It’s pretty damn embarrassing...the man needs some down time from that bs. I think the jock power he has is being used in a positive manner this time around.

We know Jimbo has a huge buyout but is it realistic to think FSU might let him out of that if they both decided to mutually part ways?

His poor season might make him a possibility.

All he has confirmed about MIT is that he thinks the guy does have some connections on the booster organisational side, not the university side. He does not however corroborate the 100% done deal story like MIT says.

I don’t think anyone, besides Beaver of course, would say it’s 100% done until the man is standing at the podium. AV also did say that even if he was 100% sure he wouldn’t post it here.
