This is exactly what I expected from the great Tennessee fan base. I wish you all the best and I can't thank you enough.

Thanks for this. Neyland is not the focus of the book, but he will appear in it. I will probably still try to get an interview. Thanks so much. This is not my first book; I'm certain it will be written.

Thank you.

Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you.

Thanks so much. I sort of thought someone on the board would know something or be able to locate some info on his whereabouts that summer. Thanks again.

I'm writing a book set near Knoxville in the summer of 1936. I'm hoping that it was possible to have a chance encounter with General Neyland during that time and allow the general to be a benefactor and help our protagonist on his journey. I understand Neyland served a one year stint in Panama...

Vanderbilt would disagree.

A copy of Butch's contract floated around for a while, and I don't think it specified he would ONLY coach football. Maybe implied it but didn't specify it.

I wish Alabama wasn't forced to share their post season money with the ungrateful SEC teams that wish for the Tide's demise. The pitiful ingrates throughout this awful conference don't deserve it. That being said, I hope you watch the game and suffer as the Tide rolls yet again.:rock:

That's a really, really good idea. If all these coaches are still getting paid their original salary, they should be kept on campus. Let them clean garbage cans. Let them sweep. Cook in the cafe on campus. If they don't do what needs to be done, they could be fired with cause and not paid...

Look back at his days as a DB coach in high school. He knows development.

Tennessee's going to be Alabama North.

If Alabama could infiltrate Oklahoma, they'd have a lock on collegiate coaching - at least in this season's playoff.

I think maybe you need to do a biopsy on that cancerous, mal-written post.

The Ole Ball Coach never played at Tennessee.
