New AD- John Currie.

Yes

 

Pretty much how we roll. Cincy was glad to get rid of Butch.

 

Didn't want to disrupt the progress being made in Chattanooga. No sense robbing Peter to pay Paul.

 

To be fair, a way too large percentage of our fans would be thrilled if we hired Fulmer so I wouldn't put fan reaction as my #1 barometer

Currie did it at KState. Blackburn did it at UTC.

Currie has raised literally millions of more dollars, negotiated contracts worth literally millions of more dollars, and has built facilities that cost literally millions of more dollars than Blackburn.

This is a slam dunk hire."

 

You're right. We should trust those in the admin at UT on this.

 

The only thing worth knowing about this hire is:

1. Will he fire Jones next year?
2.Can he unite the boosters?
3. Can he hire a football coach that can win?

Nothing else matters.

 

We're coming for YOU, UConn.....wooo hooo, Lady Vols about to reemerge!!!!!

 

Yeah because obviously that's what I meant

 

Eddie Fogler

 

Wait... We hired Kevin Harvick to be our AD??!?

 

Downgrading to C on sliding scale after consideration.

 

Dave Hart meets most of those criteria for excellence.

 

I don't like it at all

 

Yeah, my 50+ year run as a Tennessee fan is over. For real. This university cares not one whit about winning as long as they can keep the $$$ coming in from VN-type suckers who will keep forking it over no matter what... Because they're "REAL" fans.... They're real alright...Real stupid....

 

I more or less don't care if he calls and cusses his mother out every morning. I care if he can build a program that will win. If he can do that then more power to him.

 

Wasn't he in on the Kiffin hire?

 

I'm assuming this is on a scale of A to C.

 

F- Fulmer
D- Cinnci AD
