Freaking smoke coming out of every direction man. It’s getting insane, even ATL believes it’s a possibility. I believe the betting line, which isn’t relevant to Vegas, is moving due to a large amount of bets on Gruden. That’s all...
Gotcha, if ATL believes it's a possibility and with that Hubbs quote... it makes you wonder.

Except, it's not large amounts. $500 moved the line from +800 to +650 this morning at betonline. I wouldn't be surprised for another $500 to hit +250.
 
Very connected. Works in the AD and sees Currie and other higher ups regularly if you believe his recent posts.

Edit: I’m speculating on working in the AD, not sure on that just a guess

Has a business that is international. They lend their planes to the vol air Force. He said he donates 6 figures in cash in addition.
This buys him access.

Hypothetical Butch loses and I do believe he is terminated over the weekend.

However, I know many disagree but I think we pull out an ugly win in Lexington.

Torn because I never want UT to lose but losing tomorrow is like taking a suffering animal to get put down.

Screw it. Fire him after a win. Let him go out with some dignity, appreciating what he did for the program. Everyone knows this is over. Let him walk off into the woods with a content smile on his face.

When I came back to work, after her first (of seven) surgeries, I had a coworker ask when I got so much gray. I literally went salt and pepper in about a month. She nearly died twice and I can't think of how many times I thought that I was going to bury my daughter, especially over the first nine months of her life. It's something that I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy...but we're lucky, there are so many families who've had worse than we have and they're all on the Fifth floor at Vandy Children's Hospital.

I'm pretty salty too, but get me talking about this and I'm a big baby.

OB79,

As a dad of two little girls I have been reading all you have gone through and salute your (I hate to say it) resilience. I wish you and your family the best 👍

Lot of articles about Kiffin and Tennessee lately. One from John Jackson a USC broadcaster whose kid is being recruited by us. Jackson pretty much says we should hire Lane and the article is basically a complete rehab of his image that paints him a totally different light. Jackson basically says we need to get over the past and hire him.

Another article features Kiffin talking about the infamous press conference and trying to explain that all he wanted to do was explain to the press here, people that he'd come to know personally, why he was leaving even though he was advised not to by his agent. He said that he thought they deserved an explanation but it all went to hell when he asked that there'd be no cameras and one guy refused (WBIR IIRC).

What those articles tell me is Lane Kiffin is having his agent promote him for this job. Kinda funny that he's begging us to let him return. Whenever Lane grows up he'll be a good HC but I'm still not convinced he's grown up and the temptations that come with a job like UT aren't exactly good for a guy that hasn't grown up.

Lane can go to the quarry, and gather as many rocks as a man can gather, and commence to kicking

What was it that AV did for someone on this board?

Poster has a daughter who had a health issue

Board set up go fund me to help

ATL was dropping recruiting nuggets and talking about influence and cats were calling his bluff

He non-chalantly said he would match up to a certain amount for the go fund me.... $5,000 if I recall

He paid in full, and wants to remain anonymous. He’s never thumped his chest over things. Just handles business

Now folks know he’s the goods. A certain poster knows who he is and confirms the fact
