we get to sit around and watch our biggest rivals actually pony up and go get a coach that’ll put them back on the map.

Kentucky hoops (Calipari), Bama (Saban), Florida (Urban, Mullen).

Yah, they all screwed up at times along the way but then said, “F&$K it. We’re tired of this and our fans deserve better. We’re throwing X amount of money to fix this right now. Whatever it takes”

Tennessee will never do that. Our last few coaches are from:

Louisiana Tech
Cincinnati
The Two a Days MTV Reality Show (DC who’s never even been a head coach)
Milwaukee Wisconsin
Missouri State
Southern Miss (didn’t even make it year before getting show caused)
Texas (thank the lowered Rick fell into our lap and his wife was a TN grad)

Let’s face it, we’re a throw $h!t at the wall and hope it sticks kind of athletic dept.

The only couple times it’s worked is Bruce and Barnes and it feels like we just got really damn lucky with both.
