This one surprised me. I thought he was our guy, and I was excited about it.

Boy, that Dave Hart sure is a brilliant mind. Let's just go after a guy making 3.5M already at his alma mater and a guy whose AD said he would make him the highest paid coach in the country publicly a couple of weeks ago. Brilliant.
Anyone else you want to go get a raise? Maybe go beg Saban? If we publicly grovel maybe Dabo Swinney will use us too.
Congratulations, we are the biggest joke in major college football.

How we have fallen. Very dark day for UT if we have to go through this many candidates. Where do we go from here? Please not Fedora. He would be just like Kiffin. Maybe beg Fulmer to come back.

Wes,
I'm sure we'll get something from later but any idea where the search goes from here?

This is ridiculous. I can't believe we got TURNED DOWN by a Big East coach. Now what? Fedora isn't interested and Butch Jones just took the CU job. Do we hire Fulmer back? Do we go after Petrino? Man, I would hate to be Dave Hart right now!

Unbelievable!!! I could be wrong, but I don't think Fedora is going to leave Chapel Hill. IMO Butch Davis has to be the guy now. Otherwise we may end up with another Dooley.
