UPDATE: I have lowered us to Defcon 4 as there is now some serious speculation that the Vols will hire Dave Cutcliffe. Keep fingers crossed, people!
Rumors are circulating that Tennessee has contacted Kyle Whittingham about their coaching vacancy. Unfortunately, that's all we've heard. However, it appears they have only contacted and are interested in two candidates: Whittingham & David Cutcliffe, who was their OC under Phil Fulmer for good number of years between his coaching stints at Ole Miss and Duke.
Obviously this is nothing but speculation. But we'll see what comes of it.
