"IF" this is true...OMG!

[PrattvilleVol]

Based on Tee's response of being a "man of his word" (unlike his boss). He had no intentions of leaving USC. It was nothing more than an all expenses paid trip to see his kid.

 

[AJeray4TN]

Wow Basilio is like the gift that keeps on giving..he said this on his show..i dont buy it for a second.

John Brice is on 104.5 right now, and said this rumor is 100% false. He said the picture of Tee arriving was his picture, on his phone, and he knows and saw the UT personnel that was there to pick Tee up.

Another stupid rumor.

To add insult to injury, Hart didn't even have the bread crust trimmed off the sandwiches at lunch.

To add to that I heard he also wanted peanut butter and Jelly and instead they gave him Jelly and peanut butter imagine that.

 

[UTvol1fn]

Tee is a man...he can drive his family on his own.

 

[vol-un-tear]

Maybe he wanted to stop at the mouses ear on Alcoa hwy on the way lol:

 

[vol'96]

Google much???

Discover the Internet???

If Tee is a stellar recruiter he is familiar with setting and following his own itenary.

Life is good for Tee. He will come back when time is right. Only hope he continues to build his resume so he can return and win another NATIONAL championship!!!

if you read it on the internet, then it must be true

Another stupid rumor.

He also said Tennessee offered Tee 3.5 million+. He also stated that Jones really wanted Tee and this was by no means a token effort on UT 's part.

I heard............................. Jon Gruden will be the next coach at................. never mind what we hear!!!! Go with what you know.:crazy:

 

[PowerWookie]

I've said this before and I'll say it again.....this interview was nothing more than a token interview so UT could say "we tried". They had no intentions of bringing Tee on board. Same with Harts call to Jon Gruden.

i see what u doin here

True that. He also said we offered Tee "well in excess of $350,000/year", which is more than he currently makes at USC, so it clearly wasn't the money.

[tnlacombe]

Let it go..... for God's sake man let it go

 

[R481967]

We heard CBJ wasn't even in town for the interview. Low class operation over there right now. Sorry, it's just kinda plain to see. Go ahead and defend, though.

 

[SDV]

I know it's Hyams, but a guy on TSR text box said Hyams said on the radio that Tee never intended on leaving USC. He used us to get a raise there to $500k. He also reported that Tee had a meeting scheduled with Jones Monday night, but he blew it off and never showed up.

 

[nicksjuzunk]

kiffin fired the lady that used to pickup & deliver to the airport during a hissy fit.
HIS fault...... again.

He did that on purpose, years back, knowing this day would come... :bash:

 

[82_VOL_83]

If Tee had to rent his own car then this really Hertz.

Well, the UT AD have proven in recent years how Thrifty they are as an Enterprise.

They've also proven how Thrifty they can be and on a Budget.

Ba da boom....

 

[JohnnyBall]

Just read a blog that says that no one from TN was there to meet Tee and family at the airport and no transportation to the campus??????

Said that Tee had to rent a car and drove around awhile to figure out where they were supposed to go....WTF???

Can you say, Slap in the Face!

Is our AD really so disfunctional that somebody doesn't take the responsibility to greet a potential coach at the airport???

"IF" this true, someone needs to be fired today!! :banghead2::banghead2::banghead2:

The Tony Basilio Show

The stupid part of this stupid story is that even though beloved Tee was smart enough to rent a car,he wasnt smart enough to know where to go when he got behind the wheel?

Proud grad of the University of Tennessee got lost either in Knoxville, or on campus...

Calling BS once again(Or Tee Martin isnt smart enough to coach here)..you choose..

 

[carolinaviking]

I'm calling BS on most of the stuff VolNation members hear.

But, but, but we must blame someone for this travesty!

 

[VolsRule]

maybe hart was using his limo for other stuff

 

[frank grimes]

Driving on Alcoa Highway again was probably the deal-breaker. It's like all the world's worst drivers congregate there to see who can show off at driving 85 in a 50.

 

[wolfe]

If Tee had to rent his own car then this really Hertz.

It sounds like UT was being really "Thrifty".

 

[tennfever]

Like to hear the real story on this one

 

[InVOLuntary]

Sorry. Already been used. Read the first few pages.
