Tennessee requests 30 day extension

I hope the NCAA isn't thinking of saying Tennessee can't go to a Bowl Game this season and or next Season.

I think we would already know if they were. Plus we got rid of all the idiotic coaches who were involved so I don’t see any reason to punish those that had nothing to do with it

Man i hope you're right

I always tend to think of the worst case scenario, just a habit. So, this feels like they're asking for an extension because they fear the punishment could be a bowl ban, and if they push their response 30 more days, the NCAA works so slow that it won't impact us getting banned from the post-season this year because it will be too late. Who knows though. It could literally mean nothing.

Every time I forget this garbage hangs over our head it pops up out of the blue.

I'm worrying about a multi-year bowl ban also

I really thought it had been settled for some reason. Don't understand why getting rid of everyone involved isn't good enough. It's not like we had good seasons under those clowns.

Sounds a bit like Clemson 1981 the NCAA didn't put Clemson on a 1982-1984 NCAA Probation with no bowl games or television until after they went to the Orange Bowl agaInst Nebraska.

Revoke those 3 wins and be done with it

That's not how this feels to me.

This feels to me more like the legal firm hired by UT is milking it for all they can get. They asked UT to ask for an extension. More billable hours, you see.

Now, what they said to UT to make UT agree, I don't know. But one thing is for sure: lawyers almost always suck. And that's when they're on your side.

Nothing to worry about in this, I don't think. Other than lawyers suck.

Go Vols!

Sadly, if W revocations are in the cards, it'll be a lot more than 3. It'll probably be the entire 2019 and 2020 seasons. So 8 + 3 = 11 wins vacated. Because the investigaion revealed the payoffs started as early as September 2018. Which means the kids being paid were on the team for both 2019 and 2020. And some of the lads who suspiciously left with Pruitt, they played in every single one of those games.

Lol if they tell Tennessee no tv, they will instantly get told to FK off. They will not give up that kind of money. That would be the final nail in the coffin for the NCAA.

 

[0nelilreb]

Meh .. let them try it . I’d love for Tennessee to be the big final nail in the NCAA’s coffin and burry them for good . The only way a hot SEC school gets put on a ban of any kind , is if that school allows it to happen .

The punishment should follow the previous coaches and athletes.

 

[SDV]

I’m so sick of the BS. End it!

I swear the media and others love raining on our parade. It’s always a negative article being published when one of our teams is in the middle of a special season.

That makes too much sense. UT was already punished by suffering under that coaching staff

 

[Coach_Z]

Correct me if I’m wrong, but doesn’t the NCAA **not** run the CFP?

Unfortunately journalists don’t hide articles for months outside China. Typically they report events when they happen.

No worries at all!!!! GBO!!!!

I’m fine with that. Lol

 

[JoAllan]

Before this, when has ANY school gotten rid of ALL coaches involved and ALL student athletes involved?

Heck the LSU coach was on a recording and it mentioned the athlete by name…….and LSU kept both.

I could see “something” happening. However there should never be a bowl ban or really even scholarship reductions in this situation…….because of everything Tennessee did.

Scholarship reductions probably.

Exactly it was embarrassing anyway
