I Might Even be a Rockstar (Part 2)

Summary: Roman is a normal boy with a very normal life who also happens to be a teen pop sensation. Virgil is a normal boy who also happens to have a debilitating crush on a teen pop sensation. Stuff happens I guess (Part 1)

*ooooh yeah yeah ohhhhh*

“Roman! I have news!!” Patton skipped merrily towards his best friends locker, skateboard hooked under one arm and helmet still sitting lopsidedly on top of his blonde curly hair. “News so good you didn’t even have time to fight off the helmet hair?” Roman asked, tapping his friend fondly on his helmet clad head whilst reaching into his locker for his spare hairbrush. “Please Roman, you know this helmet hair is a part of my natural charm,” Patton giggled, pulling off his helmet and adjusting his coke bottle glasses. “Now do you want the good or the great news first?”

“Good news please,”

“Okay so, the good news is, I have a new graze to add to my skateboarding scar collection!” Patton exclaimed, holding up an elbow covered in a large plaster for his friend to examine. A large marron smudge could be seen expanding through the white of the cotton and gauze bandaging. Roman’s smile faltered slightly, “Wow Pat… um, that sure is… exciting?” he tried, feigning excitement for his friend. “I do sincerely hope that your second bit of news is significantly less icky though,”

“Oh yeah it is!” Patton was almost jumping up and down with excitement at this point. "We’re in Mr Corelli’s english class together!” he practically squealed, holding up a copy of the class lists for Roman to peruse. Roman gave him a confused look. “Okay…” he started, taking the sheet of paper, “and whats so great about that?”

“Mr Corelli does alphabetical seating arrangements!!” Patton was beaming at him as if this was something more than particularly dull fact. “Andddd…?” Roman tried again. “Well, just think,” Patton started again, clearly frustrated underneath all of his excitement that his friend was misunderstanding him. He pointed to a particular name typed just above Roman’s on the sheet of paper. “Someone with a name like Roman Stewart in an alphabetical seating plan, might find his seat next to someone like, oh I don’t know…. Virgil Sanders?”

“Wait!” Roman sputtered, moving the sheet closer for him to inspect. “You mean like, smokin’ Sanders? Smokin’ Sangria Sanders?”

“One in the same!” Patton smiled, “We have english after lunch too! I told you this was great news!”

“I should never of doubted you,” Roman replied, pulling his friend into a quick hug as the bell rang for homeroom. “So I guess I’ll see you in english then?”

“I’m sure I’m not the only person you’ll be seeing either,” Patton winked as he turned and jogged off to his class.

*Ooh yeaah, woahh woahh*

He leaned against the row of lockers, earphones in, blaring a particularly intense guitar solo and hood pulled up. The corner of his eye watched the gaggle of high schoolers standing together in a group he was only slightly removed from. Waiting for them to enter the classroom. When they did, he would follow, and his hood would be hastily ripped off of his head the moment he entered to room. “You know to rules, Mr Sanders, the earphones too please.” He groaned, and grimaced, but did indeed pause his phone and put the tangle of wires in the pocket of his hoodie as he walked to the seat he was being directed and sat down. Despite appearing like the kind of high schooler who would more than happily ditch class to smoke cigarettes or something more potent in back alleys, he did quite enjoy english. He liked to write and read, but mostly to listen. Not participate if he could help it though.

Someone sat down in the space next to him, and he glanced over vaguely curious. A boy in an orangey-red t-shirt and light wash jeans stared back before promptly realising what he was doing and opting to rummage through his bag for his notebook other than prolong the awkward eye contact. The boy in question had dark brown, wavy hair pushed forwards into his equally dark brown eyes. He looked familiar. Virgil had seen him around the school before but wasn’t sure of his name. Re- something? he thought. Regain? Reece? Reilly?

Roman knew his face was turning pink. His hands were clammy and the back of his neck had begun to heat up as if he was embarrassed by something he hadn’t yet done. He snuck a look at Patton as he dug through his backpack for his English notebook. He smiled broadly and “discreetly” (Patton’s discreet and a normal person’s version of discreet were distinctly different) game him a thumbs up. Patton was right he could do this. He was Princey after all! How could he perform in front of thousands of people night after night and still be scared to talk to one person? It was completely ridiculous. Okay, he thought. You’ve got this. Smile. Small talk. Flirt. He’ll be fallin’ all over you before you know it.

The boy sat up and stared at Virgil again, he tried to open his mouth, before promptly deciding against it shutting it again, flashing a quick, shy smile. Virgil leaned back into his chair, reaching into the pocket of his hoodie to find a pencil. He didn’t manage to find one. Just his phone, a tangle of headphone wires, and a piece of scrap paper from another class. Damn. He leaned over to to face the boy next to him. “Hey.. do you have a pencil?”

Roman’s eyes widened. He hoped Virgil didn’t notice. Did he have a pencil? Surely he did, he always carried spares, but all he could find as he dug through his orange pencil case was a ruler, eraser, and a collection of notes and drawing which he and Patton had passed back and forth earlier that day. God he hoped Virgil didn’t see them. Finally he found a pencil and handed it to Virgil, barely meeting his eyes as he muttered a quiet “Thanks,” as Mr Corelli began discussing Romantic era literature. Of course it was Romantic era. Roman sighed and spent most of the class putting a lot of effort into trying to look effortlessly attractive and not stare too much at his desk neighbour. He sighed. This was going to be a long semester.

an: ooooh hey void ya girl’s back with a chapter (??) in which nothing really happens! Truth is I wrote this before uni got real hectic, but didn’t have time (and/or motivation) to edit it before now, so yeah heres the next part and hopefully now that I’m not doing intensive courses I can get my shit together a little more and continue this thing.

For the week of 19 August 2019

Quick Bits:

Aquaman #51 continues “Amnesty” as Aquaman, and now Aqualad, help the elder sea gods move in to their new home on Amnesty Island. There’s a lot of character building and reflection throughout this story and definitely feels like a calm before the storm hinted at by the cliffhanger and the “Year of the Villain” material. Kelly Sue DeConnick, Robson Rocha, Daniel Henriques, Sunny Gho, and Clayton Cowles are continuing to deliver one of DC’s best comics.

| Published by DC Comics

Bad Reception #1 isn’t a bad start to this horror series fully written, illustrated, and lettered by Juan Doe. The title is a clever play on both concepts in the story of no connectivity to social media and on a wedding reception. Utilizing a highly publicized wedding event that’s being promoted as “off the grid” to potentially commit a murder (or whatever actually happens at the wedding or after) is an interesting hook.

| Published by AfterShock

Bettie Unbound #3 sends her to Mars this go around to land smack in the middle of a conflict. Things only seem to go downhill from there. Great art from Julius Ohta, Ellie Wright, and Sheelagh D.

| Published by Dynamite

Black Mask: Year of the Villain #1 gives us Luthor’s offer and gift to Black Mask from Tom Taylor, Cully Hamner, Dave Stewart, and Wes Abbott. It nicely gives us some insight into Black Mask’s childhood, before changing him into essentially a parallel to a Marvel villain. There’s also a bit of a new status quo for Batwoman.

| Published by DC Comics

Blade Runner 2019 #2 continues to be a wonderful ride from Michael Green, Mike Johnson, Andres Guinaldo, Marco Lesko, and Jim Campbell. This is still a wonderful exploration of the tone and feel of the Blade Runner franchise in an entirely different setting with different people.

| Published by Titan

Bloodborne #14 is going to mess with you as “The Veil, Torn Asunder” continues and our protagonist this arc keeps breaking with reality. It’s disturbing and unnerving, perfect for this series. Piotr Kowalski and Brad Simpson’s art just seems to keep getting better and better here too.

| Published by Titan

Bronze Age Boogie #5 is fairly insane as this penultimate issue careens through the past with a rather nasty battle between humanity and the Martian forces. The artwork from Alberto Ponticelli and Giulia Brusco is incredible. The back-up featuring “Moon-Thing” this issue from Stuart Moore, Shawn Crystal, Lee Loughridge, and Rob Steen is also great.

| Published by Ahoy

Canto #3 has some more interesting twists and revelations as this beautiful fable continues to unfold from David M. Booher, Drew Zucker, Vittorio Astone, and Deron Bennett. Continuing to build the story on storytelling is wonderful and your perspective on the slavers might change.

| Published by IDW

Criminal #7 pushes “Cruel Summer” forward as we get Ricky Lawless’ perspective on Teeg and Jane’s relationship and how it, and pretty much everything else, is ruining his life. Very interesting development of Ricky’s youth as he becomes more and more of a jerk.

| Published by Image

Deadpool Annual #1 is a heartfelt and funny story as Deadpool explains why he’s better than Squirrel Girl from Dana Schwartz, Reilly Brown, Nelson DeCastro, Craig Yeung, Matt Herms, Guru-eFX, and Joe Sabino. Actually, it’s more about Deadpool helping a young kid deal with Nightmare, featuring a hilarious trip through Nightmare’s realm, and a horrifying realization. It’s also really nice to see Reilly Brown back at doing some Deadpool.

| Published by Marvel

Death’s Head #2 is more glorious madness as Death’s Head, “Vee”, Wiccan, and Hulkling try to work out who’s going to be parts or who’s going to face Dr. Evelyn Necker (the alternate reality doctor who made Death’s Head II and apparently eventually this upgrade Death’s Head V) from Tini Howard, Kei Zama, Felipe Sobreiro, and Travis Lanham, yes?

| Published by Marvel

Eve Stranger #3 gives us some deep revelations on Eve’s past, her parents, and how she came to live with Delilah. David Barnett, Philip Bond, Eva de la Cruz, Lee Loughridge, and Jane Heir continue to deliver a deeply funny thriller here.

| Published by IDW / Black Crown

Excellence #4 deals with the fallout of the battle between Spencer and Aaron. It’s nasty, and further reinforces just how much Spencer’s father is a jerk. It’s interesting as to how layered and complicated that Brandon Thomas, Khary Randolph, Emilio Lopez, and Deron Bennett are making this world, and yet the key motivating factors are still some of the most simple, basic human interactions and how we hurt one another.

| Published by Image / Skybound

Fairlady #5 is a rough one to end this on. Don’t get me wrong, this story is great. Brian Schirmer, Claudia Balboni, Marissa Louise, Lesley Atlansky, and David Bowman deliver another interesting mystery with gorgeous art, and an interesting tie to a previous issue, but the build up for an even broader mystery hurts. It hints at possibilities that may never be answered because this series is now cancelled. Still, this was great while it lasted.

| Published by Image

Ghost Spider #1 is a direct continuation from the previous Spider-Gwen: Ghost Spider series, from Seanan McGuire, Takeshi Miyazawa, Ian Herring, and Clayton Cowles. As Gwen moves to the 616 to go to school, I guess it makes sense to relaunch the series with a new number 1, but, as said, it’s still continuing on the same story with the same creative team. Thankfully it’s a great creative team and story, so it’s well worth picking up.

| Published by Marvel

Guardians of the Galaxy #8 is heartbreaking. Donny Cates, Cory Smith, David Curiel, and Cory Petit continue “Faithless” as we learn what’s going on with Rocket. It ties together much of his past with his Guardians tales and his current condition. Very nice character moments.

| Published by Marvel

Hellboy and the BPRD: Saturn Returns #1 begins a new historical mini from Mike Mignola, Scott Allie, Christopher Mitten, Brennan Wagner, and Clem Robins. This one’s set in 1975, but spans a wide time period as they discover more and more bodies. The mystery set up of who’s committing the murders is quite compelling, especially with the pseudo-occult drawings likely to have been drawn to give a misleading impression of the murders. But the real gold is in the character development, looking at how Liz Sherman is adjusting to some of her early years at the Bureau.

| Published by Dark Horse

History of the Marvel Universe #2 is again worth it alone for the absolutely stunning artwork from Javier Rodríguez and Álvaro López. Like the first issue, it’s a dry read, but it can be fascinating as Mark Waid, Rodríguez, López, and Joe Caramagna guide us through Marvel’s history.

| Published by Marvel

Killer Groove #4 is kind of messed up as everything practically goes to hell. I love the approach to flashbacks and hallucinations this issue, keeping the main characters in full colour while the rest are a grey wash. Really neat effect from Eoin Marron and Jordie Bellaire.

| Published by AfterShock

Last Stop on the Red Line #3 is still one of the most unique series on the stands, even as it gets weirder and more straight-forward as the secrets and truth start potentially sliding into place. The art from Sam Lotfi and John Rauch is incredible.

| Published by Dark Horse

Livewire #9 kicks off a new arc from Vita Ayala, Tana Ford, Kelly Fitzpatrick, and Saida Temofonte, building on Amanda’s confrontation with PSEP and adding a new wrinkle on politics. It’s interesting to see the problem from the political perspective and addresses some of the issues that naturally arise from a government program sanctioned to abduct and murder children.

| Published by Valiant

Middlewest #10 introduces us to Abel’s grandfather and it goes about as well as you’d expect. More toxic masculinity, more “be a man” and “embrace your anger” nonsense, leaving Abel a confused and scared child. Skottie Young, Jorge Corona, Jean-Francois Beaulieu, and Nate Piekos are continuing to tell a very strong story here of abuse and survival in a magical realist way.

| Published by Image

Outpost Zero #12 asks some very important questions as it demonstrates that a portion of the colony certainly would rather keep their heads buried in the sand, ignoring the potential of alien life and secrets from their past, rather than confront possibilities of their future. Great character work here from Sean Kelley McKeever.

| Published by Image / Skybound

Pearl #12 concludes the series (for now at least) with some explosions, gun fights, and a new kind of order. Brian Michael Bendis, Michael Gaydos, and Joshua Reed have really been telling a compelling crime thriller here, offbeat and with some oblique humour, with impressive artwork.

| Published by DC Comics / Jinxworld

Psi-Lords #3 is another beautifully illustrated issue by Renato Guedes. This series is worth it even just for the artwork. We also get further backstory on the genesis of the Psi-Lords and the Starwatchers and the reason for sending the “Astro-Friends” to the Gyre. And some may not be what they seem.

| Published by Valiant

Savage Sword of Conan #8 continues “Conan the Gambler” from Jim Zub, Patch Zircher, Java Tartaglia, and Travis Lanham. There’s a great build of tension as Conan plays his game of cards and a wonderful twist as we go into the finale next issue. Nice detail on the trump cards.

| Published by Marvel

Strayed #1 is a very strong debut from Carlos Giffoni, Juan Doe, and Matt Krotzer. It’s a rather interesting concept of harnessing communication with a cat who can astral project, coupled with the horrors of humanity colonizing alien worlds. Stunning artwork from Doe.

| Published by Dark Horse

Stronghold #5 is a very interesting conclusion to this series, giving more information on the true nature and history of Michael, and setting up the potential for more stories somewhere down the road. Gorgeous artwork from Ryan Kelly and Dee Cunniffe.

| Published by AfterShock

Superior Spider-Man #10 sees much of Otto’s past come back to haunt him as his identity as the former Doctor Octopus goes public and he searches for who is trying to ruin his new life as San Francisco’s Spider-Man. Very nice build on Spider-Geddon and the most nightmare inducing character from therein from Christos Gage, Mike Hawthorne, Wade von Grawbadger, Jordie Bellaire, and Clayton Cowles.

| Published by Marvel

Superman’s Pal Jimmy Olsen #2 is another fun issue from Matt Fraction, Steve Lieber, Nathan Fairbairn, and Clayton Cowles. We get more on Jimmy’s family, his legacy, and Superman’s secret super powers, but it also introduces the next sensation who should be lighting up the charts, Pawquaman.

| Published by DC Comics

Teen Titans #33 elaborates on Luthor’s offer to Lobo. We also get more on the current state of the team and on just how far, and rather villainous, Damian and Djinn’s actions are now in regards to how they’re dealing with criminals. Adam Glass has been taking the team down a dark road for a while now and I’m interested to see how this blows up.

| Published by DC Comics

Transformers ‘84 #0 is a bit of an oddity, reuniting the Regeneration One team of Simon Furman and Guido Guidi to celebrate the 35th anniversary. It’s a one-shot tale set in nebulous continuity detailing trying to discover the Ark in medieval Earth. Great art from Guidi and John-Paul Bove.

| Published by IDW

Valkyrie #2 is another great issue from Jason Aaron, Al Ewing, CAFU, Jesus Aburtov, and Joe Sabino as Jane takes on Bullseye. It’s a pretty epic battle, beautifully illustrated, that looks like it’s going to have some interesting ramifications.

| Published by Marvel

Vampirella #2 is liable to divide people further on this new run as it leans heavier into sex & violence and reveals Vampirella’s therapist as a potential misogynist with very problematic diagnoses for mental conditions. I mean, I don’t think “crazy vampire bitch” is anywhere in the DSM-5. Great art from Ergün Gündüz, though.

| Published by Dynamite

The Weatherman vol. 2 #3 reveals more information about the virus plaguing Earth and sets up even more problems in the way of Nathan, Cross, and co.’s attempt to restore Nathan’s memories. Gorgeous artwork from Nathan Fox and Moreno Dinisio.

Thanks to the heroic work of Catherine Corless, here are the names of the seven hundred and ninety-six children who died in a Tuam mother and baby home run by the Catholic Church in collusion with the government in Ireland, and whose bodies were thrown into a septic tank at the site pictured above.

This was one mother and baby home. There is evidence to suggest that we can expect similar results from the many other Irish mother and baby homes (and this is without talking about Magdalene Laundries).

I’m not putting any of this under a Read More link. I’m just not.

Bills' McCoy in starting lineup for playoff game at Jaguars

JACKSONVILLE, Fla./January 07, 2018 (AP)(STL.News) —Buffalo Bills running back LeSean McCoy is in the starting lineup against Jacksonville.

McCoy was listed as questionable to play in Sunday’s AFC wild-card game after spraining his right ankle in a victory at Miami last week. He was carted off the field, sat out two days of practice and returned in a limited capacity Friday.

The big question now is how effective he will be against one of the league’s top defenses. McCoy accounted for nearly a third of Buffalo’s offensive production in the regular season.

The Bills also will have receiver Deonte Thompson (shoulder) available. He had been listed as questionable.

The Jaguars will have receiver Marqise Lee back in the starting lineup after he missed the last two games with a sprained right ankle. Lee leads the team in receptions (56) and ranks second in yards (702).

Jacksonville will be without backup running back T.J. Yeldon, who was sick most of the week.

Also, coach Doug Marrone decided to start former Bills defensive tackle Marcell Dareus against his old team. The 340-pound Dareus was traded to Jacksonville for a late-round draft pick in October.

Other inactives for Buffalo: starting linebacker Matt Milano (hamstring), receiver Malachi Dupre, cornerback Shareece Wright, offensive tackle Conor McDermott, guard John Miller, tight end Khari Lee and receiver Brandon Reilly.

Jacksonville’s remaining inactives: Receiver Montay Crockett, cornerback Jalen Myrick, defensive tackle Eli Ankou, guard Chris Reed and offensive tackles Josh Walker and William Poehls.

Is Greg Schiano a Good Coach?

Tim Reilly wrote a really good piece about the Greg Schiano and Tennessee fiasco earlier today.

This is a sidebar story addressing one of the questions contained therein.

Is Greg Schiano a good coach?

The cornball answer is “yes and no.” I don’t think he’s good enough for Tennessee, but what defines “good enough” for the Volunteers in 2017? They haven’t been all that relevant since Phil Fulmer left town back in 2008, taking 152 wins and a national title into the College Football Hall of Fame. That lead to a revolving door of Lane Kiffin, Derek Dooley, Butch Jones, and a pair of interim coaches during a 57-56 run from 2009 to last week. They were bowl eligible in just five of those nine seasons and haven’t won the SEC East in 10 years.

So, no, the Vols aren’t what they used to be. But it’s still a prestige school in a prestige conference with a lot of history.

But let’s be clear here, this isn’t about what Greg Schiano did or didn’t know at Penn State during the Sandusky years. This is about Tennessee fans thinking they deserve a better football coach.

Schiano’s resume is a little tricky to navigate. I think “non-linear” would be a good way to describe it. Here’s a guy who turned around an awful Rutgers program, stayed way too long, then made the jump to the NFL when he had big colleges coming after him.

The Tampa Bay move never made sense. Schiano’s only NFL experience was a three-year stint as a Chicago Bears assistant and then defensive backs coach from 1996 to 1998. He went 11-21 in two seasons with the Buccaneers, finishing dead last in the NFC South both times. His tenure was plagued by poor relationships with his players, whom he reportedly treated like college kids. There was a little bit of Chip Kelly in him, right? The college coach comes in, doesn’t know how to work with grown men, makes some dumb decisions, and ultimately loses the locker room.

Schiano had a famous dust-up with New York Giants coach Tom Coughlin after his team tried to torpedo Eli Manning during victory formation in a 41-34 loss:

His NFL coaching tenure was a disaster, but Rutgers was not.

The Scarlet Knights were coming off of seven straight losing seasons when Schiano was appointed in 2001. He went 3-20 in his first two years, including a stretch of games against West Virginia, Boston College, and Pittsburgh that were lost by a combined score of of 160 to 14. This was the old Big East, which still featured a powerhouse Miami, top-15 Virginia Tech, and middle of the pack squads that sported superstars like Dwight Freeney and Larry Fitzgerald.

The wins came, but slowly. Rutgers beat Navy and Syracuse in 2003 and knocked off Michigan State and Vanderbilt the following year. That set up the Knights for a 7-5 season in 2005 and the school’s first bowl bid since 1978. I remember that game like it was yesterday. Arizona State 45, Knights 40. It was a feel-good story for anybody claiming to be a college football fan. James Gandolfini was in the house, too. The Sopranos star was one of the New Jersey’s biggest names back then and became the celebrity face of the Rutgers rebirth.

2006 was probably the high water mark for Schiano and the new Big East. WVU was coming off a Sugar Bowl win and 11-1 season. Louisville had gone 9-3 in its first Big East campaign and Rutgers, of course, had high hopes for the year. In September, the three schools beat North Carolina, Miami, and Maryland, going 3-0 against the hated ACC, a conference that had just recruited Boston College, Miami, and Virginia Tech.

The rest of that season was a wildly enjoyable ride. Rutgers started out 9-0 with a win over the Cardinals, who had climbed to #3 in the national rankings. Check out the recap with a cameo from a former 94 WIP host:

Next game out, the Knights tripped up against Cincinnati, then lost the conference title in a triple-overtime game in Morgantown, settling for a 10-2 record and a Texas Bowl berth. Rutgers crushed Kansas State 37-10 for its first bowl win ever. Seriously. They had never won a bowl game in school history.

Ray Rice was a beast that year, running for 1,794 yards and 20 touchdowns. He was named Big East player of the year and a finalist for the Maxwell Award, which was given to Notre Dame quarterback Brady Quinn. That Rutgers team was loaded with future NFL draft picks like Kenny Britt, Brian Leonard, Courtney Greene, Tiquan Underwood, Jeremy Zuttah, and Devin and Jason McCourty.

Schiano was a good recruiter back then. He kept New Jersey kids in New Jersey and used his Miami connections to create a pipeline of talent to Piscataway. When Paul Pasqualoni left Syracuse in 2004, Schiano convinced Rice and Greene, originally Orange commits, to play for him instead.

The 2007 season was a bit of a disappointment after the 11-2 campaign. Cincy and UConn were starting to improve and Rutgers finished 8-5 with a bowl win over Bowling Green. They went 8-5 in 2008 and 9-4 in 2009, winning two more bowl games against NC State and Central Florida.

The criticism, from what I remember, seemed to be that Schiano couldn’t win the big games. Not once did he beat West Virginia. He couldn’t beat Brian Kelly either, when Cincy was rolling out Tony Pike and Mardy Gilyard and a bunch of studs. He snagged a couple of wins over Louisville but that conference title always eluded him, even when the Big East was slowly crumbling to the point of collapse.

By that point, Schiano could have gone anywhere. Michigan showed interest. Miami gave some thought to it after Randy Shannon was fired. Kelly, Bobby Petrino, Rich Rodriguez, and Randy Edsall all moved on to bigger schools but Schiano decided to stay for whatever reason.

Here we are then, with the current Ohio State defensive coordinator now blocked from the Tennessee job because of an outrageous fan backlash.

Anyway, the conclusion is this –

No, he’s probably not good enough for the Vols, even though their fans think they’re more important than they actually are. But Schiano did some great things at Rutgers and can still do great things at a similar school. I could see Schiano turning around a program like East Carolina or Connecticut. I could see him at a mid-tier ACC school like Pitt. Maybe he goes to a bottom-half Big 10 team like Indiana or Illinois. I don’t know if he’s a stylistic or geographic fit for the Big 12 or Pac 12.

Schiano does have success getting guys into the NFL. He coached Ed Reed, Jonathan Vilma, and Delco native Dan Morgan at Miami. Ten of his Rutgers players are still in the league. One, Mohamed Sanu, has thrown more touchdown passes in recent weeks than Dak Prescott.

As for Tennessee, I think they end up going with an internal type of guy, maybe somebody from the Fulmer coaching tree. David Cutcliffe says he’s happy at Duke, so go figure. Imagine saying that in 1997. Doug Marrone is coaching the Jaguars so he’s probably out. Apparently they’re looking at Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy, whose Cowboys disappointed again this season. They can take Dana Holgorsen if they want, I wouldn’t mind.

Either way, the whole thing is kinda sad, but that’s what we do in 2017. We yell and bitch and complain under false pretenses.

Go Vols.
