Shaping up to be a great weekend...

Cat's win in a thriller, a walkoff game winning touchdown.

Currie drops a turd, hiring a turd.

Hoping the Chiefs can learn how to stop crapping the bed....

Clay Travis and Currie are not going to be besties.

...the deal, if reached, would be worth upwards of $10M per season for Gruden, with another $8M per season reserved for the salaries of his staff.

So colossally stupid. Come on, they aren't going to give that dude $10 million a year

stupid why?
it’s not currie’s money, it costs him nothing.  he’s giving his fans what they want and putting money in his own pocket via 5 years+ of job security.  if it doesn’t work, its’s gruden’s fault, not currie’s and no one would think otherwise

It's stupid because I'm guessing he can find someone more proven than Gruden for that much money. He needs to hire who he thinks is best for the job, not be bullied by idiots to do what they think is fun. If the search leads him to Gruden at $18 million a year then fine, but I'm guessing that wouldn't be necessary.

Schiano, whomever hires him, will be the second most successful college hire made this year. He was awesome at Rutgers and it wasn't with just smoke and mirrors, he got real NFL talent there. I wouldn't think a K-Stater would need to be reminded how good Rutgers was.

The K-State team they beat wasn't very good.

The best part of this is that those morons, led by Clay Travis, lack the self awareness to see what everyone else can; they are the problem, not the solution.

No words for what is happening in Knoxville. Tragic day for Tennessee if this happens. Holding out hope that social media will stop it from happening.

Their last three coaches were
Lane Kiffin, who ran his ass out of there the first second he could
Derek Dooley
Butch Jones

Who in the world do they think they are? They want John Currie to turn water to wine. Someone like Pete or Wacky should point this out to Clay Travis.

I know it was Rutgers, but he finished the season ranked just once in his coaching career there and his team quit on him in the NFL. I do think Tennessee is a bit better than Schiano. Just my opinion.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/early-lead/wp/2016/07/12/greg-schiano-tom-bradley-knew-of-jerry-sandusky-abuse-at-penn-state-documents-show/
Quote
Former Penn State assistant coaches Greg Schiano and Tom Bradley knew that Jerry Sandusky, their colleague on Joe Paterno’s football staff, was acting improperly with young boys years before law-enforcement authorities were first notified, according to testimony from former Penn State assistant Mike McQueary that was unsealed Tuesday by a Philadelphia court.

McQueary, who testified in Sandusky’s 2012 criminal case that he had told Paterno of seeing Sandusky rape a boy in 2001, said in the 2015 deposition that he had “briefly” discussed with Bradley what he had seen.

“He said another assistant coach had come to him in the early ’90s about a very similar situation to mine, and he said that he had — someone had come to him as far back as early as the ’80s about seeing Jerry Sandusky doing something with a boy,” McQueary said.

According to McQueary, Bradley identified Schiano, now the Ohio State defensive coordinator, as the other assistant. In response to a question about whether Bradley had shared details of what Schiano had said, McQueary related a conversation with Bradley.

“No,” McQueary replied, according to the documents, “only that he had — I can’t remember if it was one night or one morning — but that Greg had come into his office white as a ghost and said he just saw Jerry doing something to a boy in the shower. And that’s it. That’s all he ever told me.”

If the objection is the Penn State stuff, that's completely fair but let's not act like you guys wouldn't act like this if the hire wasn't anyone but Gruden.

I think now is the perfect opportunity for Dana Dimel to step in and solve this pickle.

If Currie was willing to deal with rape he shoulda went with Briles
