According to a story linked at DBR, the current sticking point is coaching staff. Cut wants to bring his staff; the Vols still have 6 people from the Kiffin mini-era. They also point out that Cutcliffe was fired at Ole Miss for refusing to fire some of his assistants. (fingers crossed)

Please stay, Cut!

http://www.govolsxtra.com/ This story from TN says it's a done deal, barring a last second snag. The potential snag is the coaching staff. (Crossing fingers...)

I am all torn up and feel a bit betrayed. Right now, I have a ton of hate directed at lane kiffen. This is how my heart is feeling.

My head, on the other hand, realizes this is a good move for Coach Cut (and to a certain degree kiffen), and if I was in his shoes I'd be doing the same thing (kiffen too).

But, my heart is screaming and my head is whispering, thus my heart is winning right now. GTHlk,GTH!

I think in the Cut/UT scenario, there is a lot of loyalty, it's UT loyalty to Cut. While I want Cut to be loyal to Duke, I really can understand why he would leave to go back to a program that has been a significant part of his life, much like kiffen. That is the head talking. But, it really sucks for us. And, that is my heart talking.

Sigh. I love Duke. I'm still going to brunchgate and go to football games. GTHC. damn, damn, damn.

I haven't had a chance to read the posts about the can of whip ass the Tigers opened on the holes. Think I'll read those to make myself feel better.

I know that such job changes may be considered as part of being an adult..... but I really don't like this one. The timing makes it even worse with signing day on the horizon. Even if TN won't let him bring his entire staff, I'm concerned about the limited staff remaining. Several coaches mentioned as possibilities for Duke on some threads here and yon have already said they wouldn't leave for TN. Kevin White has his job cut out for him!
