    2 different people called in here that were supposedly relatives of different players saying the players called them saying he is gone. Both guys had detailed info and sounded pretty credible on the radio. They gave the players names etc... One was a punter and I forget the other

    yeah, that was '01

    would have gone to the national championship game again if we win that game

    qb gets injured and backup comes in looking like a Heisman winner

    great save by ville, but there must be something very wrong in knoxville for him to have turned this down. big pay raise, SEC, and huge fan base.

    last chance at a good hire for vols is kirby smart. maybe they should just throw $4M at him right now, no interview required.

    From what I have been hearing he was so close to coming it wasn't funny and backed out. Supposedly his wife had a lot to do with it. Not wanting to uproot the family... Fukin bitch, LOL

    On Tennessee's end the only real issue I have heard for any coaches out there is the fact that there is a disconnect between the athletic department and the academic side. The chancellor doesn't care for athletics and has been hard to work with. Believe it or not, there have been issues of UT not being able to get kids in school because of grades that would get in at other SEC schools. Supposedly Cheek and Hart worked all that out after the Dooley firing so Hart wouldn't have to worry about that, but the perception is still out there among coaching circles.

    UT also doesn't have a big in state recruiting base so they have to get most players from out of state. I don't think that is a major issue and Louisville is in no better shape as far as that goes.

    I don't think there are many other issues.

    Butch Jones don't have Brain Kelleys coat tails to ride on coming into to Tennessee. Rinse and repeat all of this again in three years.
