Just when things couldn’t get any worse for UT...

That won't stop the most delusional fanbase on the planet from expecting him to come when they offer him. It doesn't matter what you think of Tennessee football or the offer, you should drop whatever you're doing and take the job to coach at Tennessee because it's the best job on the planet. Not even shaking god's hand is a bigger honor. -- that's about how I imagine these people feel. At least from my personal experiences with them.
Kiffin is blasting his old team on Twitter about the coach search...that is hilarious.

He is now the new AD. Back stabbed Currie to get him fired just like he back stabbed Major to get the HC job back in the early 90s.
So it's been reported that apparently UT boosters were contacting coaches behind the AD's back telling them the place was toxic and not to come. So they weren't getting turned down by all these coaches, the boosters were driving them away so they could get their own choice in there. What in the actual f*ck. Gotta thing Fulmer was behind all that.
It just keeps getting better!
Phil better find a HC that owes him a favor and get him signed quick.
Yep, he is going to give some good down home mountain boy talk and have everyone thinking he is such a sweet little heart. Backstabbing chump. Lol
The situation at U.T. with its now-sexagenarian usurper Fulmer (U.T. h.c. 1992--2008) just screams for a video treatment by LSUFreek (if he's still around). I'm thinking darkly of a "Great Pumpkin" wielding a blood-dripping knife, as might be inspired by Tim Burton's Nightmare. Or a Gahan Wilson cartoon. But certainly not a place for Charles Schultz's Peanuts sentimentality.
So while everybody was blaming the fans it's coming out that they just got a effed up AD. Boosters reaching out to coaches telling them not to come, big politics, big alum like Manning signing off on who gets hired, etc. Crazy. Fans might be the sane ones.

I just feel blessed we had a hand in this when Mullen told them he needed to talk to UF first.
The Mullen hire looks so good right now. Solid, steady hire who wants to be here while UT and FSU are absolutely broken right now
Called it.
Not that it took Nostradamus to see that coming.
Currie was fired after he dealing with Mike Leach on the HC position and Fulmer derailed the whole deal. Now Currie is out and Fulmer is interim AD. Didn’t something happen with Fulmer sometime ago. It appears he purposely got Currie fired so he could take over AD position.
Somewhere Johnny Majors is shaking his head at the whole Fulmer issue and saying "Deja vu"....
Yeah he filled in as interim HC while Majors were out due to an illness...and derailed him from returning.
Who does the ole Head Ball Coach think should get the job at Tennessee?

I wouldn’t be the least but surprised if Fulmer hires some body that he can just walk all over and basically coach the team himself. That has always kind of been his MO
The story is that everytime Currie met with someone Fulmer and Peyton called boosters and told them to reject it. Once the Brohm hire was sabotaged I knew we were dealing with full dysfunction. And you cannot overlook how the Schiano hire was handled. They are getting exactly what they deserve for handling this all wothout an ounce of class
Fulmer is currently conducting interviews at Duncan Donuts from 8am until Store Closing, Monday - Saturday the whole month of December………
Introducing Coach Jeremy Pruitt as the next Football Coach at Tennessee!!!
I didn’t realize Phil used Foley as a consultant on this hire
If the Pruitt to Tennessee deal goes though, Jimmy Sexton will represent 10 of the 14 SEC head coaches
