D.N. Nation posted:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2009_Tennessee_Volunteers_football_team I had season tickets to Georgia basketball that year. Kiffin departed the week Georgia hosted Tennessee. It was so much fun to just chant Kiffin's name at them. It didn't matter that this had nothing to do with the game being played, Kiffin screwing them over was just that hilarious. Then we got to chant "we're up 20" at various points because Tennessee stunk it up that night. And later the guy covered in peanut butter ran out on the court after the game.

The offensive line was just shredded against Auburn though. I'm not saying you're wrong (and SC should be a decent defense I think?) but especially at that point of the season Missouri's pass defense was swiss cheese. They're probably not actually any better now, just playing teams that suck.

Fromm at least had time to throw the ball though. He didn't have that on Saturday.

There’s a whole lot of “friend of a friend” chatter going on around Vol message boards regarding Gruden tonight as usual. The majority are saying “friend of friend who is close to XYZ said it’s being announced tomorrow.” Goddamn, I am ready for the meltdown of it not happening. It’s going to be earth shattering.

Why don't they ever loving learn? I'm just glad UF fanboys aren't going crazy about Stoops anymore. That poo poo was really really annoying. But Stoops was still more plausible than loving Gruden to UT.

I wasnt kidding earlier when I said I had a buddy text me about his friend in the Chancellor office saying there was an announcement tonight. Turns out it was Albert Haynesworth on FB Live stream sitting in his living room dipping and talking about his life and just rehashing rumors that have floated around the past couple days. Which is hilarious.

He did decent enough at Cincy and Central Michigan, he would probably be sufficient for say a Ball State or Kent State or other similar G5 school in a midwest hellscape town. It drove me insane at the time. I actually watched him in the Big East. He was a caretaker for Brian Kelly's players and you could see them getting worse.

General Dog posted:I can't believe chompmann69 led us wrong Back in the late 90’s and early 2000’s there was this super annoying caller to local radio (in the Tri-Cities area on Tennessee) who called himself ‘chomp man’. This Gator fan was such a prick that he would have every local redneck calling in a uproar after every call. I thought he was the greatest troll. When I was a sophomore at ETSU a teacher asked everyone to tell something about themselves. Well this kid (well I was 29 at the time, so I guess he was 20) asks if anyone listens to local call-in show, because he is the famous chomp man. He acted like he was the most famous guy from Tennessee since Davey Crockett. What I learn that semester was that chomp man wasn’t a troll. He was truly an annoying prick, and he drove everyone in the class crazy no mater their football fandom (ETSU didn’t have a football team at the time). It was to the point that he almost came to blows with other students, and the teacher had to talk to him several times. That said this was 2001 and guess what happen when in 2001? Tennessee beat them at the Swamp. If my memory serves me correctly chomp man never came back to class after that game, and this was late in the semester (game delayed due to 9/11). Sorry for non-coaching derail, but you triggered me with the name ‘chomp man’.

An uh unsettling amount of serious talk that, in the event of a loss to Bama, Gus may voluntarily self-demote to the relatively low-pressure Arkansas job. Had kinda vaguely been brought up as a hypothetical on the 24/7 Auburn site's podcast earlier in the season as like an alternative to him getting straight-up fired but they always phrased it as just speculation, not backed by any actual reporting. Now that he beat Georgia and presumably silenced any questions about his security, SBNation is running with it as a serious possibility. My *guess* is that this doesn't come to pass -- clobbering Georgia, the kind of meaningful win we've been waiting for since the Kick Six, earned him a degree of goodwill far beyond last season's six-win streak that saved his job but didn't really make anyone happy. He genuinely has some cushion now (and I'm still at this point ~50% he's gonna beat Bama for the SECW title which would probably earn a raise/extension). It's still loving weird to be having this conversation, and hard to gauge given the larger uncertainty surrounding the athetlic department with Jay Jacobs on the way out.

I didn't realize ETSU didn't have a football team back then. Who the hell was playing on Gentry Field? Anyway I didn't want Gruden but now I do, except that I'm also sick of our dumbass fans thinking we'll actually get Gruden. At this point we deserve Kiffin, but I still think it's funny that his son is named Knox, so I'd prefer he remain the enemy forever. Just pay some good coordinator or mid-major coach 5 or 6 million and be done with it.

I still think he would be awful as a college head coach. If he wanted to recruit he would kick rear end at that though. But, you know, you guys are coming off of that exact same coach right now.

KICK BAMA KICK posted:From Arkansas, made his name in Arkansas high school ball, wife's from there, OC'd there for that weirdly successful but ill-fated 2006 season. Auburn is obviously a tier above but you can tell a story that sends him back there. His OC stint was a mess though, Nutt hated him and they weren’t good until they junked the offense he was trying to build around Mustain and just let McFadden do literally everything. Ehud posted:I'm real surprised at how excited you guys seem about Chip. He was a really really really good college coach. DJExile posted:Kansas State issued a statement refuting Bret McMurphy's report that Leavitt was the coach in waiting but that Snyder killed the deal. Bret's standing firm on his report. I mean duh. They’re not gonna admit to feuding with the head coach and most important guy in the history of the program. McMurphy’s the best college football reporter for coaching stuff, and the thing about Snyder wanting his son to take over and no one at KState wanting to go along with it has been widely reported for awhile now.

Chip Kelly is going to wreck no matter where he goes next. And Gruden would be a mistake, I remember our grumors and saban rumors as well after mack got fired. I know the fans seem like idiots and bonkers but it's so fun being inside the bubble of anticipation. Reading all the new rumors and "inside info" was awesome, a great drama unfolding slowly on flight tracker.

ETSU canceled the football program (financial reasons) while I was in school there. It might of still been going in 2001 (I can’t remember), but it happen sometime around my sophomore or junior year. They did bring it back a couple of years ago. Of course they no longer play at the Mini Dome (who in the hell con them into that?). This will not stop the rumors (they are calling it a smokescreen). Edit: You know just reading the coaching rumors and denials (everything is fake news unless it is pro Gruden) on Vol Nation tells you how Trump got elected. nate fisher fucked around with this message at 07:28 on Nov 17, 2017 |

The denial phase is going to begin soon, then someone will track a plane from Knoxville to Tampa and it’ll ramp up the rumors again. Also on ETSU, a cousin of mine played football for them in the early 90s. I used to have an old ETSU Bucs shirt from when he played there. When did they start playing ball again?
