    Probably would have been the 2 had they won the LSU game, but that was the ceiling. And the teams sent to Knoxville likely wouldn’t have changed, so the only difference would have been FSU in Supers and I actually think Alabama is a better matchup.

    Tennessee took 2 of 3 from LSU without hitting a home run. Took 2 of 3 from Georgia hitting a combined 2 home runs. Saying it’s home run or loss is nonsense. So is addressing everyone you disagree with as “in your mom’s basement.”

    Auburn has supposedly put it out there that they are looking for a female head coach. I get it with their recent experience, but I think it’s misguided to limit yourself like that, particularly when there are so many strong offensive coaches out there that are males. The Auburn fans want a team...

    The top seed always plays the first scheduled game of the day, unless they are hosting the tournament. The host team is given the option of playing in the evening slot. Same format as the basketball tournament, top seed always plays first. The idea of being that it maximizes rest.

    There was a free shuttle from the Ag Campus for the LSU series, it should be running again this weekend.

    Again, to satisfy the clause, the bare minimum she would have to do is actively apply for D1 head coaching jobs. Simply applying and interviewing satisfies the clause. That said, she’s not going to drag it out, she wants back in and will likely have a job next year. If she had been let go at...

    She did that by interviewing for the Marquette job. She does not have to take additional action until next March to maintain her buyout.

    I don't think that's the belief at all. Most people don't see two Sweet 16s as the total failure that people on the board do. Many close to the program, including financial stakeholders knew some of the challenges faced and how close many in the sport felt she was to clearing them. I'm kind of...

    Disagree 100%. When you're asked to commit six figures, you care deeply about the results and the program.

    I don't think that's necessarily accurate. But when financial stakeholders receive information that they then base their financial commitments on, they expect that information to be accurate. There were several mid- and high-level donors that were told late in the season that her job was not in...

    Perhaps that conversation happened. Leaving a team in the middle of a semester doesn't help a player and she had already played in a couple of games so the year of eligibility had already been spent.

    The kid and her family don’t see it as pettiness, so I’m not sure why you should. But do whatever you want. Karen isn’t going to put the kid’s business out there, and is certainly willing to have fans mad at her for it.

    I actually know who Earl is, a very close friend of one of my clients. He was a very connected booster and supporter of Tennessee’s NIL efforts. If you knew how much money he had invested in the program, you probably take a different tone. But, you don’t have to worry about that anymore.
