Clay Travis now has to shave a Florida Gator into his head per a bet with Erin Andrews.

Between that, the ban bets, and didn't some poster bet his season tickets that Gruden was coming to UT, this place should be interesting in the next few months.

However, I doubt the guy ponies up for season tickets if, in fact, a bet was made.

You are watching great UT legends on and off the field have something they have helped build for decades be taken away from them. There are still several trump cards still in play however.

In the mean time. Best of luck to coach Butch Jones.

I can only pray that the people that can make a difference are working together to see that we do rise from the ashes. That is not a condemnation of CBJ, he very well may play a role in positively helping this process.

The saddest part of this hire for me is that ARKANSAS has managed to hire considerably bigger names for their last two coaches than UT. Why? Arkansas gets Petrino / Tennessee gets Dooley...Arkansas gets Bielema / Tennessee gets Jones. Either Tennessee, for some reason, is less attractive to potential coaches than Arkansas, who faces LSU and Alabama...OR, the hiring efforts of UT have been deficient. For clarity, I'm not suggesting Bielema is a home run hire, but he is undeniably more highly regarded than Jones. From my perspective, it appears as though Arkansas' AD has simply been more determined. Why?

If by determined you mean competent, not broke, and given an extra 8 months to search I would agree.

I don't think Bielema will turn out like most hope. He will win some games, but will not get close to a NC. Not saying our coach will either, but surely you can see that they don't have an advantage.

Jeff Long is a good AD.

I've seen you post this in 4 or 5 different threads. I checked your profile and you have posted this exact same thing in 15 different threads. I think everyone has seen it.
