So, it’s me again.

I just want to say, I’ve finally caught up from today and I don’t buy the Grude Prudes.

Butch trying to keep his job-No.

Haslam wanting to keep Butch-Junk

Gruden still making up his mind up-Bogus

He’s coming. I truly believe they are trying to throw us off that this has been a done deal for awhile. They’re waiting to fire Butch cause Gruden cant come til the end of the season and they feel it’s best to try and keep things as intact as they can. I expect Butch here til the Sunday after Vandy.

The only thing that could speed this up is news leaking-hence all the smoke.

That’s what I’ve decided and I’m not changing.

Soon.

That's what I'm here for :)

I will play Steve from Springer and referee, should any squabbles break out. Ape may lose it if he gets confirmation that a little Curious George is on the way.

Ape, you ARE the father.

"IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII TOLD YOU! I TOLD YOU!"

Ape destroys the set, runs backstage where Dr Phil is waiting.

Was locked up for 8 hours in mandatory leadership training today.

No laptops. No cell phones. 😡

Anyone willing to catch me up with more than a "soon"? :)

Something I'm not understanding. Butch and his staff have been under an internal investigations for 9 days now. Has anyone heard anymore about it? Why let him coach while there's an ongoing investigation in regards to the safety of a student/athlete? I understand timeline wise he may need to finish the year, but this seems to leave a lot of people very vulnerable.

Good questions here.

I will go out on a limb here and suggest that in the best case scenario for all involved parties, we will never get answers to your questions.

My speculation is that there was an unwritten practice of pressuring players to self-diagnose concussions. That undercuts the formal policy badly, but we only found out because it went awry with Kendrick. I think everyone likely wants this issue to quietly disappear along with Butch. It's very interesting to me that we haven't heard more about it from the Kendrick family. Hopefully, their concerns have been addre$$ed, in whatever manner they feel appropriate.

Edit: added clarification about how the University could potentially $ati$fy the Kendrick family concern$.

So rick neuheisel is a big name for Gruden’s rumored coaching staff.

Next thing you know, he’s confirmed in Knoxville.

Turns out, he’s just here to speak at the Quarterbacks Club.

I swear the universe is just toying with us at this point.

Aortic valve here, zipper and all..... like you I really won't to relive the glory days of UT football. If it requires the ole ticker to slip a beat fine and dandy, that beats accepting mediocrity !

I've not heard of an internal investigation. Is there one?
