ETSU should welcome with open arms all the pissed off UT football fans if Greg Schiano is named head coach today....just saying now is a good opportunity.

I thought Alabama would fire Saban after yesterday and TN would pick him up. But, guess they’re gonna keep him in Tuscaloosa another year. What about some TN players — any interested in transferring?

The fans protesting is just stupid. Things will sort themselves out in time.

The Bucs better be retooling the offense if they want to keep their fans. Guarantee, the fans will stop coming if they have the same dull, unproductive offense that we have seen for three years.

Sunday was a prime example of why I'm proud to NOT be a Vol fan. What an embarrassment and disgrace that was. They are so blinded by that ugly orange and the national title from 15+ years ago they are going senile

It has been a fun year watching them crash and burn, and then add more fuel to the fire and throwing themselves into it. They look so bad from the whole situation of Schiano and trying to tie his name to Sandusky stuff. Most of them think there is hard evidence linking him to that when there is none at all. UT fans look so damn terrible currently, from a national spot light perspective.

I have degrees from both ETSU and UT, so they share my allegiance.

I do have to say that I enjoy going to ETSU games much more than UT, simply because I'm not sitting next to the miserable, ignorant fans that populate Neyland. And those people made me even sicker this weekend.

Saw a couple of bumper stickers:

Honk if you haven't been offered the ut football coaching job.

and

Interim is an unnecessary adjective when describing a ut coach.

I'll be here all weeks folks!

Sooo, let me get this straight. UT fans don't want Greg Schaiano because of his "character" but a lot of them seem to want Bruce Pearl back.

Live look-in at the UTAD today....

Starting to think Mullins and Stanton wouldn't have done much worse at UT.

There aren't enough facepalm memes on the internet to describe that debacle right now.

Can someone catch me up on what happened today?

Perdue Coach turned them down, rumors are that they are now pursuing NC State coach who reportedly is hacked because NC State wouldn't give him a contract extension and is 15-25 in the ACC.

Say they have no interest in Tee Martin or Lane Kiffin.

Some fans calling for the rehire of Butch Jones over the coaches that remain available.

You just can't make this stuff up, well actually you can because all the above is just "reports" and we all know that if it is on Twitter it is absolutely true,

Calls to fire Currie and Davenport. Calls to replace Currie with either Blackburn or Fulmer. Although half the population of Tennessee named their children Peyton fans now deny they know him (not sure why).

Conspiracy theorists proposing that this is an attempt to either 1. deemphasize football 2. move Tennessee from the SEC.

Other than that not much going on "down there in Knoxville". Anyone hearing that the power T logo might be changed to a logo with torches and pitchforks ?

Looks like NC State coach is not an option. Students chant Fire Currie at basketball game, twitter video of one student being forcefully being removed from basketball game. Kidding aside this is getting pretty ugly.

Reminds me of how I felt when we had our two bozos in charge. I'm serious. Totally helpless for UT fans.

If there was ever a time for us to potentially beat them in football, it would be next season. It won’t get any better than this.

And there are a lot of folks that are “done” with them. If half the ETSU grads in the area who supported UT instead supported ETSU, we would have 20,000 people at our football games. That would be fun.

Just don’t care enough anymore to keep the hate of the big awrange going. But, why did the program collapse under Jones? Granted, they have shot themselves in the foot several times starting with the stupid firing of Fulmer (obviously). Can’t they put enough money on the table to get a name brand or are there other issues?

Whatever happens in Knoxville won’t have much impact on the ETSU program unless a cultural shift is underway. With all the empty seats I’m seeing across non-Power Five FBS football, is there some sort of shift actually underway?

Not a lot of love flowing in the Knoxville direction from other parts of SEC country:
