I'm definitely the problem.
Dad went to Alabama. Grew up an Alabama fan. Born in November 1985 so really didn't understand much about football until 1995. Admitted to UT in 2004, became a UT fan and eventually twice an alum.
1995-2003: Alabama won 1 game.
2004-2016: Tennessee won 2 games.
My team is like 3-18 in this rivalry.
I find that very hard to believe seeing as he essentially works for UT.
My source says Blackburn has not been contacted by UT. This is coming from the Blackburn side. TIFWIW
Believe it. He personally told a mutual VFL friend in a phone call after the Ainge interview there had been no direct contact. He also said there had been no direct contact to that point with any other candidate.
Another thing I've heard is that the feeling in the UTAD is that Davenport doesn't grasp the passion of the UT fan base.
I'm guessing that just like many outsiders who are brought in here she does not understand this place and is completely oblivious to the $#!+storm that would follow this guy being a serious candidate.
