Just wondering what he is doing now.

Telling orphans their parents probably gave them up because they struck out one time in a game?

Only Hammy is dumb enough to hire this guy. Maybe he will go work for Hammy's non profit.

Nope, he wants to make UT give him every penny his buyout required.

He would have gotten a mid-major job for sure next year, but not after some of the behind-the-scenes stuff he pulled on his way out. He will find employment in baseball at any level extremely difficult, and that has zero to do with his coaching ability.

So there was more than trying to blackmail Hamilton and the rest of the AD by threatening to go to the NCAA and turn us in for violations?

He's not nearly friendly enough to get that first star. They even make the bus boys be personable there. He'd be unqualified.

He might make it as a server at Dick's Last Resort, I heard they opened one in Gatlinburg.

Swear to God if that was opened on Cedar Bluff, I'd be working there. I'd give anything to tell someone to f off

Surely it wouldn't be any NCAA violations since Hamilton actually called his bluff and nothing came of them, I thought.

I had heard about telling the player who struck out that his dad, who had died earlier, would be ashamed of him so I'm assuming it's more of that kind of stuff.

from the volunteer press guide a year ago: ""An intensive national search headed by UT Athletics Director Mike Hamilton in the summer of 2007 culminated in the declaration that Raleigh was the singular clear choice as the beacon who could successfully usher the Volunteers program into and well beyond its centennial season."

man like that surely won't stay unemployed!

Would have worked if Raleigh didn't have his own skeletons that needed to remain in the closet.

He certainly seems to be very unprofessional in his dealings with everyone. I can't imagine anyone hiring this clown if they know his story at UT.

If he is probably like most exUT coaches he may never need to work again.I tried to get hired in athletic dept with no pay just so i could wait for my severance package
