Butch gets it.

Seems like a lot of "politics" being played within the UT administration.

UT officials said Sousa’s promotion of misleading claims to alumni and band members has created a divisive and counterproductive environment. Sousa encouraged students and alumni to speak out against the Athletics Department over reduced playing time and reductions in travel and budget. This followed the UT vs. Georgia game in which the band played significantly more than in this year’s previous home games.

John Phillip Sousa is a legend. Gary Sousa, not so much.

[govols105]

band has alot more pollitickin' going on in it than alot of folks realize.. and what i saw was on the high school level from a band director who graduated from the posb as drum major.

Gary was born on third base.....well, maybe second, but it was a walk and a passed ball.

Why hart???? Cheek should of been gone a long time ago

 

[emzeeee]

As much as I disliked a lot of Sousa's attitudes. There's another person one rung down that needs to get the boot too.

 

[BookVol]

I do not like this news.

 

[Velo Vol]

Well, well. Guess all was not rosy on the Hill after all. Time for the PR spin machine to churn out another slick press release.

 

[DaddyChad]

Bring on Gruden.

Spider Y Banana.
