    Just reading that I know makes Tenn fans want to hurl or get a rope!!

    But apparently due to the sterling job he did for the Raiders and the Vols, USC doubled his Tenn sal to approximately 4M!! Man that is a lot of money for somebody who really hasn't accomplished much as a head coach.

    It's nuts.

    ...funny what difference a year makes.

    A year ago I make that comment and I am skewered.......although it was very true at the time.

    You've got a point Dave. But you carry on so much that your cogent points get lost in all the other stuff.

    With that said, you were correct although most of us casual observers really did not know anything about LK at the time.

    I didn't know him that well either George but because he brought such attention to himself with his behavior and comments I had to take a hard look....and I didn't see anything there.

    Man....I would love to see USC at Tenn....

    On BT...haven't see much of him since oSU played out it's string a couple of years ago and then so did Wall Street.

    I truly hope he is well and just standing on the sidelines though.

    I think I find the fruit more often than not.

    I don't bat .1000 but the average is pretty high.

    At least I am willing to come to the plate instead of hiding in the dugout..... :wink: 8)

    MCG, I have to agree that you don't quite achieve the batting average stated above. :)
