You stated that UT was facing the death penalty as if it were a fact. Then you tell me I don’t know we weren’t, as if the burden is on me to prove a negative to your positive assertion. Logic doesn’t work that way. You stated it, so prove it.Uh you don’t know that for a fact. With the amount of level 1 violations the NCAA could have easily given us the death penalty. So yes it was a real threat.
When was the last time any school received the death penalty? SMU in the 1970’s. The NCAA found out real quick that that one move put the NCAA in a negative light and the NCAA’s reputation has never recovered. There has never been a threat of the death penalty to any program since. So please explain how UT was going to get that penalty.Uh you don’t know that for a fact.

Exactly. It’s a ridiculous claim. There wasn’t even a bowl ban.When was the last time any school received the death penalty? SMU in the 1970’s.

The NCAA could have easily given us the death penalty. None of us knew what was really gonna happen. That’s the point.When was the last time any school received the death penalty? SMU in the 1970’s.

Actually, I did. Because I’m not an idiot. I’m also not worried about a meteor hitting the planet tomorrow and wiping us all out, but I guess it’s possible.No it’s not. Claiming you knew the death penalty was completely off the table is what’s ridiculous.
Nothing about this situation makes me think he will be there more than a season. Entirely across the country for a staff that has zero interest whatsoever in playing defense in a conference that will play most of its games in the frigid, late season northeast.
Tennessee would have taken them to court and won. The NCAA was never even going to think about going there with us or any big power 5 school. Tennessee turned it’s own self in and got rid of everyone involved. No way we were ever even considered to get that. No wayThe NCAA could have easily given us the death penalty.
