I didn't realize he was just recently married. As the article states, the charges were dropped, but obviously TSR doesn't want to be associated with him any longer. Too bad, because I always enjoyed his show.

Yeah he had a segment called "vol rewind" where he interviewed former Vols. It was pretty awesome. He had Charlie Garner and Aaron Hayden on together not long ago.

When something comes up on the Ainge show about an athlete elsewhere being involved in domestic violence Ainge and JayBay are always really tough on them. So I guess they didn't want to look like hypocrites.

I have been wondering as well what happened to him. Treece and Swain had /have the 2 best shows on that station.

Treece lost me when he blew that Cuonzo Martin quote out of proportion last year. It wasn't even remotely close to what Martin said but made a lot of fans turn on one of our coaches.

He has issues that I think he is dealing with now. He does not harbor ill will for his release from TSR. As far as the Ainge DUI, didnt it get dropped as well? I forgot.

i think TSR viewed it as a business decision. Their sponsors are their lifeblood and TSR had to give the ultimate consideration to them..anyway, business is business...as it should be...

Never heard any more about it since it was reported. Must be nice to have the right connections.

i agree its not the same but treeces charges got dropped pretty quickly. So im not sure what the real story is. Its not like Ainge had a great reputation before the DUI.

TSR is great during the football season. Their hosts don't have the range (except for Swain) or put in the work to keep it fresh during the offseason imo.

i hear ya man. i cant listen either. At least Treece loved to talk Vols the whole time. If i ever turned on TSR it was to hear Treece. The station has gotten pretty bad though.

Seems like a double-standard at TSR... keep Ainge onboard with a legit DUI and fire Treece on a charge that was dropped.

I liked Treece during pre-season practice when he seemed to have a good eye for spotting the players who would make an early impact. His shows were just okay. He always seemed to have a chip on his shoulder and relished the bad boy persona.

TSR is hard to listen to due to the volume of commercial breaks, at least during Ainge and Hooker's shows. Not just top of the hour 6 minute breaks, but every 8 minutes or so they break for 6 more.

Jay Bay, the station owner, needs to get off the air with Ainge and run the station behind the scenes. He's even more immature than Ainge and their middle school banter really gets. I quit listening to Ainge during my commute to work.

I listen to Hooker's show while at lunch at it's okay. He tries to keep it interesting for the most part. Still, way too many commercial breaks to keep the topic flow going. Hooker suffers from lack of recall when it comes to Vol related facts, figures & info which is surprising for someone who has covered the Vols for most of his career. His sidekick Durago is young and acts like it with his opinionated comments and bravado.

IMO Swain does the best job at TSR. I enjoy listening to his show driving home from work and on podcasts. Stokes needs to get better and quit growling words to make a point. I think he tries hard, maybe too hard. Perhaps now that he has his own show, he'll improve.
