Tee is a good guy, going back to tell his players and lane in person. :hi:
Agreed. Hopefully, Tee will also give Kiffin the following message: "I came back to give you a lesson in professionalism and to tell you and our players, face-to-face, that, although I have enjoyed my time at USC, I will be accepting a position at the University of Tennessee. This is the way you are supposed to handle acceptance of a new coaching position. Your fly-by-night, scorched-earth departure from my alma mater and, particularly, Ed Orgeron's last-second antics positively reeked of unprofessionalism."
We shouldn't get our hopes up TOO much about Tee. If he doesn't come it is because he feels it isn't best for him AND his family at this time. We do not know all of the factors he must consider. And if he chooses to stay at USC we should not take that as anything against him of Coach Jones. It just was not right despite our feelings about the situation.
@JimmyHyams: Lane Kiffin has just informed me that Tee Martin has not taken the job at UT - at least, not yet. Stay tuned

Most important recruiting battle Butch Jones will have this YR at UT is trying to reel in top USC asst Tee Martin.
I hope Tee pulls a Kiffin and tells Kiffin I'm leaving for my dream job plus I'm taking my recruits with me!
