You've seen a bad boob job?
in response to Pipe_Down_Otis: What is all this stuff Hart is saying, about talking to players and coaches about Jones. He didn't speak to him before 10pm thursday night. I don't think he talked to anybody about Jones before then because he thought someone else would take the job first, especially Strong. And I know he didn't call a former player or coach at 3am Friday........

You don't thnk they screened more than one candidate at a time during a two week period?I would guess you are wrong.

And most of those coaches, whether wearing pajamas while drooling or not, could beat Vandy.Res ipsa loquitur!!
in response to brokendownoldvol: Didn't Dooley beat Cincinatti last yr worse than any team while he coached at UT? :((
in response to brokendownoldvol:
Didn't Dooley beat Cincinatti last yr worse than any team while he coached at UT? :((
And Jones beat Vandy. Does that mean that Dooley is a better coach than Franklin?In other words, it is an irrelevant point.The man has been a head coach for the past 6 years and has won 4 conference championships.
in response to racvol#234960: Finally someone who is the voice of reason! Unfortunately you can't reason with these idiots on here who can't even back up what they say with facts. If I were an AD trying to keep my coach I would print out all the negative phooey these so called fans post and show it to that coach. These people are delusional and unrealistic. I will be there at every game like always supporting the team and whoever the new coach is and that doesn't mean I accept mediocrity either. GBO!

in response to TheRealDragonSlayer: Butch Davis may be a much better play than Petrino. Butch builds strong defensive teams, and that is what we need in the SEC..that is why Strong being in the mix was exciting for us. Petrino, even when he succeeded at Arkansas, was focused way too much on offense. If he does come here, I will absolutely support him, but I am wishing for Butch Davis.

Me, too. I've said it several times on here. And, I don't understand why Mike Leavitt and Greg Roman haven't been mentioned.
in response to orangecountyvols: 10SE85, Shipperman, and other real Vols, You are absolutely correct about this troll, Jeff Flowers, aka Karl Kremser hater, aka Glenn Ford hater. We know what 99% of the people here on GVX think of Jeffery and his 3 partners of misery. The fraud isn't man enough to take his rants to Ford and Kremser.Hence, the coward. Anyone who is so consumed with certain people as evidenced by the never ending crying and moaning over the two former Vol players, plus the incessant bashing of a coach who is no longer in the picture..........that clearly tells us this 'individual' has serious mental problems. Calling himself a 'real Vol fan,' and the 'alumnus reference,' as if he's the only one who can claim that' is an embarrassment to the many proud Tennessee grads who went on to achieve something in their lives without bragging all the time. This guy and his little army of 3 'brothers' aren't going to change. They're proud of the negativity they spout and at this point don't really care how childish they sound. You aren't supposed to wish something tragic to befall this guy and his 'band' but as the old saying goes........'he's asking for it."

in response to pcshowtime: his current recruiting class is ranked 7th out of 8 in the big east who says he can recruit. This is not a good hire not compared to gundy of fedora. Do not give me that bs about class rankings do not mean anything until signing day. We are coming up on the dead period when do people think he is going to strengthen his class. bargin basement hire.

That ranking is currently based upon just 10 commits. When signing day comes, he will be at the top like he has been the past three years (if he is still at Louisville, of course).
I watched it stream online last night. Really nice ceremony.Well deserved honor for Coach Fulmer.

who said charlie strong can recruit look at rivals his class for this year is ranked 7th out of 8th in the big east. http://footballrecruiting.rivals.com/
Come on, man. That's with only 10 commits. He could go to Florida after the Sugar Bowl and get left-overs and close that gap easily.BTW, these boards are proof that there is no such thing as "THE" guy. Even Gruden had his detractors on here.
in response to zombievol: Las Vegas odds on favorite is between Jim Tressel or Butch Davis, with the latter being the the most favored... Despite past transgressions I think our program would flourish under either of those coaches

in response to Clarkrm0706: Wait, what? Seriously, You spent months telling us that as soon as we hired a good coach, we would return to the top and now you say returning to the top that soon is a "delusion of a Doolaid Drinker"? I have no problem with differing opinions unless they come from the same person. I thought Dooley should go but I am lost by your contradictions.

Two steps when Bama beats Auburn.We're number 12, we're number 12!!!!!
They just listed Mike MacIntyre as a possible replacement at UK. He is excellent. Wish he had a shot at our job. But, with us replacing a non-BCS guy now, it won't happen.But, Mike is a great coach.
You are indeed at the very least, a foible.
in response to GerryOP: Most adults usually understand that beating a dead horse is only a show of your own ignorance and it doesn't affect the dead horse one bit. You may question Derek Dooley's ability to do the job he was hired to do, but he gave his all for Tennessee. Sometimes you're better off simply saying "Thank you" and then moving on. That would be the adult thing to do.

Agreed.Also, at what point do we put it on the players?UT has never gone winless in the SEC. Obviously, that doesn't mean much to this group.UT is one of two programs in the country that has never lost 8 games in a season. Obviously, that doesn't mean much to this group.Just listless.
Two bad teams.
in response to Rumblefish: I certainly hope he hasn't been contacted. Just sayin..... There should be no interest in an unproven coach from a mid-major EVER AGAIN. And if you think 1 good year at Temple in the Atlantic 10 is "proving himself", think again....

I don't think anything. You placed "proving yourself" in quotations. I did not say that.I am merely saying that he has been talked to.I have stated no opinion about that fact.
in response to Rumblefish: No he can't. And he can't recruit either. Building a Temple team in the "oh so tough" Atlantic 10 conference is NOTHING. They didn't join the Big East until 2012, when Golden bolted for Miami...and his recruiting there sucked...much like his football team does this year.

You are going to hear his name.Cry to someone else about that fact.However, I am not saying he is getting the job, just that he has been contacted as to his interest.
in response to pcshowtime: not griping on you but al golden is another dooley his overall record is 38-45. He maybe different but we can not afford to gamble anymore.
not griping on you but al golden is another dooley his overall record is 38-45. He maybe different but we can not afford to gamble anymore.
Oh, I understand. But, he has been contacted.And, most of that record was while building the Temple program. He can coach.
Al Golden, anyone?
in response to ACWLY: Have to CONGRATULATE Vandy players and coaches, they gave us a true butt whooping. Out played us at every position. No excuses, we've found the bottom... But at least we have a ray of hope as our new coaching staff will at least give us a prayer for future success. Saddest season ever, over 60 years being a Vol and I plan on staying a Vol so all I can do is HOPE that the third time [coaching change] will be a charm. ... Any of you have a realistic idea of WHO our new coach might be???

Don't know who is going to get it but you're going to hear Al Golden's name.

in response to GatorHater1998: are you serious?
in response to GatorHater1998:
are you serious?
Yep. He didn't make it back to the locker room.Broyles left his box before the game was over and fired him on the field.Legendary in Arkansas.
When the Citadel beat Arkansas several years ago, Frank Broyles fired Jack Crowe while he was walking off the field.
Come on to Knoxville, Jannah.Would love to see you play.

in response to VolnTex: All I can figure is you just woke up from a deep sleep of 6 years, heard Petrino was unemployed, and think he would be a good fit for UT. Anyone who has watched his train wreck of a life and wants him for a coach has serious issues.
