Who do you think would be a good hire for UT? Obviously everyone wants Gruden, but I highly doubt he'd come here.

The safest choice to me would be Kirby Smart. Then I would throw a lot of money t get Chad Morris as an OC. Larry Fedora is a guy that I like a whole lo also. The main thing is to get a coach that wil pik up strong coordintors. Brent Pace could be an interesting candidate as well.

I don't think the Vol faithful will be very happy unless we hire a proven HC. I just hope we don't screw this up and get set back 3-5 more years again.

I'll drink to that, Devil Dog! Give us a little time to get our D back and we'll be there. Think Johnny Football would lay about 60 on us right now.

I know brother, I love Tennessee, I always follow your games. I also know what it's like to have two bad coaches in a row, frustrating as all get out.

I wish you guys luck as well. Tennessee people are the greatest and deserve a good team to root for. I've felt your pain and hope it's a speedy recovery back to the top. It's times like this that make a 7-3 record not look all that bad. I remember in 2008 and 2009 just hoping to beat the worst teams in the conference and most of the time that not even happening. It made a win over anybody feel like a holiday. Hang in there and keep showing up for your team and it will get better.

Thanks for the classy post, stop by any time. I hope we get a coach that can bring us back. And I think I speak for most of us when I say please beat OSU!
