Let's not give Hart a free pass just yet. At the very least, he completely bungled this thing by putting all his eggs in Charlie Strong's basket. For some reason he thought he could get Fisher, he didn't see the obvious writing on the wall with Gundy (and let Sexton abuse him the same way Sexton abused Hamilton), and so he dared to come into this week with only two legitimate candidates. When one of them was unimpressive in an interview, that left him with one legitimate candidate . . . and that candidate just happened to have an AD who was on record saying that he would not be outbid by anyone to keep his coach. Is someone like Butch Jones the best we were going to do, regardless? Maybe si, maybe no. But if you don't put yourself in this position, you have more time to identify candidates who you have a legitimate chance of getting. Dooley was fired 18 days ago, for pete's sake.

I won't disagree but this ridiculous "fire Hart" is irritating....and if we did that it only makes everything even more unstable.

Tell your wr's to have some clock awareness.  

That's gotta sting.

Tee hee 

Y'all kill me. Hart went all in on Strong...it isn't Hart.

    

Mike Hamilton is the cause of the problems of the UTAD.

For what?

Do...you're saying maybe some academics should be stressed?

 

Well...he can beat Vandy. 

Is Nebraska to UT a step up?

UT from anywhere is a step up. WTH is wrong with you? 

I think they sent her up to Louisville a la Hostessgate... She botched the mission.

JK!!

Dammit...why didn't they send me!?!

Certainly can be! I would like to know what the innuendo is re: the academic issues?  That's all.  I just cut& pasted it. I like women!

Is it not on record that Jimmy Cheek has been the issue there? Do you honestly think Strong turned us down over academic issues?

I saw it on another board and keep hearing vague references to our "issues on the administrative" side. With a resume/bio like that I doubt she cares much about football. 

Because intelligent, career minded women aren't interested in football?

I have heard her name thrown around, most recently by Bassillio

The bio you posted is no help at all, however. 

What leads you to believe she is part of the problem?

Because when men fizzle shizzle up they blame women.

Eh.  Women.

 

Beg pardon?

Pat Fitzgerald of Northwestern is a damn good coach who is great at making chicken salad out of chicken shizzlee in a place where it's hard as hell to recruit

How bout we save time...give me a list of who is not a "damn good coach" and I will notify Hart not to bother with them.

Lynnie is in no mood for nonsense these days. 

I've had my fill of bammer fans laughing at us.

Auburn got Malzhan, KY got an assistant, the only one that might worry me is Arky and their guy wasnt on our radar. I find it laughable that a bammer fan is surprised at this. Completely laughable...how's old Richie Rod doing?

I hope Florida stomps the ever lovin pigeon poop (or should I say cardinal poop) outa Louisville!

Me too!  I hope Strong turns out to be an overpaid failure (but I don't think he will).

Co-sign

ACK!! 

Let the big money people who have some business sense hire a AD and coach. If we had people like that in place this would have already been done, in fact this should have already been done weeks ago. 

We are faced with a question here........either Hart is really smart or just as inept as Hamilton at hiring coaches.   

Sure..because THAT will certainly make the job more attractive.  Gruden was a pipe dream...Gundy is to OSU as Fulmer is to UT so really we have had one legit candidate turn us down and he really hasn't earned the money he thinks he is worth. I wanted Strong...I am disappointed but let's not get carried away. #voiceofreason

Ms. Pot.... The kettle is on line 2 and he is pissed.

I'm not taking calls right now.  My meds have kicked in and my chakra is aligned and I don't need him messing with my feng shui.  Here have some lavender and sage oil with a touch of citrus...put it on your wrists and ahhh....

It ain't over. Lord have mercy the interwebz has created a bunch of panic stricken sissies.  But I love y'all!

A poster on Catspause said He has seen that in the Knoxville News Sentinel

Dude...quit reading Catspause
