I'd be all for an older feeling stadium with some historical looks to the facade and concourses. I also hope we dump a ton of money into it so we can put this conversation to bed for a long, long time. We really just need a lot of beer stands. Everything looks better when you've had a few.

I do. Briefly, LSU focused on O’Sullivan, not really CTV. TAMUflu has slowed down because three potential targets, including CTV, in postseason.

Basilio says both sides believe something will get done early next week.

Let's hope this whole thing doesn't distract CV and the team this weekend.

I can almost guarantee this is being handled entirely by Sexton at the moment and TV isn’t even thinking about it.

Hope so, I guess. Not sure if that's good or bad!

Tennessee is at a turning point, preparing to make a sizable financial commitment to its coaching staff and facilities to sustain the program’s success, multiple sources with direct knowledge of the Tennessee baseball program told Knox News. One of the sources indicated the investment could place Tennessee among the nation's biggest spenders on college baseball and make Vitello one of the highest-paid coaches in the nation.

UT Chancellor Donde Plowman understands the urgency. “We are prepared to invest in what it takes to be the top baseball program in the country,” she told Knox News in an exclusive interview Thursday.

A LOT of people latching onto this story. Local radio, national radio, Chris Burke, etc.

I think something official will be coming down the pipe sooner rather than later.

It's happening ladies & gents.....

Good to see this happening! I think this is also UT’s signal to other schools to back off our coach. Coaching searches are fluid and there can be a potential domino effect at other schools.

So far, I am a fan of Plowman.

The leadership at the university has been a breath of fresh air. Boyd and Plowman both seem like very smart and very savy people. I like what they have done together over the past few years and look forward to what else might get done in the future.

Worthy of a watch if you missed it, very impressive to say the least. CTV starts talking around the 10:00 mark.

I am too. She caught some flack over the Pruitt investigation, but I think it’s going to turn out fine.

I saw her resume when the Pruitt saga was coming about. She has a doctorate in strategic management and taught previously at UT. She’s smart...and she is the daughter of a Methodist minister and went to SMU for undergrad, which is kind of my second school.

These wheels have been in motion for a while. Weekend Peyton threw out 1st pitch there were ALOT of donors, and ex Vols in town..

I’m getting a kick out of the LSU fan reaction to the news on their message boards. Many of them are chiding Woodward for passing on CV. There seems to be a disconnect between who their fans want and who Woodward is targeting.
