in response to papavol:

And oh yeah, Petrino is by and far the best coach available right now.. Didn't say he is the best person or that he is "the guy" but he is definitely the best coach. If UK gets him and we get stuck with another dooley, we will become the kentucky or ole miss of the SEC. I don't want that.

If the Vols were this year's "ole miss of the SEC", that would be a big step up from where they are now. Some say Hugh Freeze of Ole Miss did the best coaching job of the year in the SEC. He certainly wouldn't be the "WOW!" hire everybody says the Vols need now, but he would be worth considering if all the bigger names fall through.
