I’ve done dumb things in life for sure! Sleeping with your own player gotta be one of the dumbest mf’n things you can do.

Wonder if the name was different and you looked at just the facts how Vol fans would judge this situation:

- named HC bc of who mom was
- cheats on wife with player
- lives off mom’s pension

I never made any judgement. You did though, would you change said judgement if it wasn't Tyler Summitt?

Thoughts about Pokey Chatman?

I think anybody in that situation is a dummy. Or at the very least an incredibly weak person that has no business in any type of leadership role.

Would be someone that I would always, 100%, question their judgment.

I completely agree.

But that doesn't change the comment I made, it was made into a bigger deal that it really should have (especially) locally BECAUSE of his last name.

I don't agree with him or anyone doing it. That's as plain as I can say it for you.

I also don't care about a millionaires son reaping the benefits of said parent's accomplishments. Out of my control. But nothing was done to me to forgive in the situation so no clue why you assume I've forgiven him anyway.

I know I quoted your post but didn’t mean you specifically. Just the first 2 posters I saw talking about it

Feel like if this was a Bama story some of yans wouldn’t be so forgiving.

All good.

I just don't care I guess...and feel like we only had to read/hear about it because he's Pat's son. Doesn't excuse his transgression at all, but National media thrives on negativity when it comes to the Vols and I hate it.

What data? Fool.
Prove me wrong?
Only thing I’ve said is banks is neither great or terrible.

You or anyone else hasn’t presented anything proving I’m wrong.

Because there is none!

Others have posted the numbers but this one defeats any of your ridiculous notions. Banks took us from the 90th overall defense to #8 in four years. That was done with recruiting restrictions. That’s ELITE. You can use conjecture to say other DCs would have done the same or better. But Banks DID IT.

Now go sit in the corner with your dunce cap on.

What would you do? What if you fell in love with that player? Would you be too proud to live off her pension, or be homeless?

But if I were in that situation I’d go get a job and provide for myself like an adult.

Are these serious questions?

Yeah, they are. Real life, real emotions.

First, you cant expect every person in world to be as resolute as you convey. You of all people should see the whole story.

Why should he have to work? His parent took care of him, he's taking care of his child (one would think). I personally have to work, but if my parents took care of me i'd drop it in a new york second to be with my kids more.

That is what an adult would do. My kids come first, forever and always.

That pension is only paying him around 50% of what it paid Pat (which was around 173k a year). Still a good chunk of money, but he technically does have a job, but it's as the co-founder/board member of the Pat Summitt foundation and also Co-founder of the Pat Summitt Leadership Group.

Most pension plans have age restrictions, he CAN draw it now, but wouldn't get the full yearly amount.

I work for the gubment and my pension is structured to be a very small percentage if drawn on before retirement age. Even if left to my wife she would also incur a massive penalty to draw it early. I also don't think you can just name an ex-spouse as a beneficiary. If my wife and I divorced it would 100% default to my child.

Yeah just looked into this... it is a bit of an interesting loophole and lots of folks take advantage.

Source: Pat Summitt's will leaves 'personal property' to Tyler Summitt



Also did more digging, it appears that Tyler can only get 50% of the benefits until his death. Which is still no small amount.

Thanks for this post. I am glad you have a pension, I am sure you worked hard for it too. I have a 401k but its nothing like whats mentioned here, am still thankful to have anything with SS in peril. The article doesnt state so I wonder if $173k a year is the benefit or what he actually receives? Either way its a bunch so he has little to worry about. Very few jobs have a pension anymore it seems, if you don't work for the government or a union job like UAW, Teamsters etc they are hard to find. I didnt know that they would pay a benefit like that to a child of the earner.

Yeah, I had to dig... it's a weird pension that is setup to really setup beneficiaries better than most (mine included). And with coaches that are making millions per year it inflates to some absurd payouts. So I get why most folks paying taxes in this state get annoyed by it.

Cause $86.5k a year until his death is a big chunk...if he reaches retirement age (when most folks would be eligible to even start withdrawing) he'll have already received over 2.5 million from her pension...sadly my kid won't see that kind of money LOL

Means i will have to pull for the Raiders. I love Hendon Hooker man. Dude had an amazing season, arguably the best ever by a UT QB...AND published a Christian book for children? If I recall correctly he had 37TDs against only 3INT and rushed for 5TDs as well. Thats an AMAZING Season in the SEC with our games vs Flarda, Bama, and the pups? He beat 2 out of 3. Most prolific offense in Tennessee history on his watch.

I really want Goff to go away and Hooker to take over the Lions job though. Thats the better team all around.
