Why would I buy that game when I already live it 8 months of the year? I need those 4 months for my sanity. And if TV leaves, I might only be down to 1 month. I’m not 22 anymore, those days are long gone. The body can only handle so much.

The fact it’s taking this long makes me nervous. Are we waiting until Danny White makes the first move, or has he, and Tony is truly mulling it over? I think the latter. (I hope so). I think Tony loves the success he’s found in college and that UT gave him his first job here. BUT, you can’t fault the kid to be ambitious and he’s elevated our program in
record time from when he got here. Yes, I’ll miss my eye candy 🙄,but good on him if he goes. He’s shown how competitive he his and part of what’s made him successful here. The longer this takes, it softens the blow if it comes.

California is going to take 12.5% in taxes. If Tony is making 3 million per year now he’d need to make ~3.4 million to offset that to come up even (if my math is correct). Maybe he takes a lateral move pay wise but I imagine he’s looking for a decent raise to leave everything he has built. If they offer him 4 million per year that would tie him for 7th highest paid manager. Seems expensive for an unprecedented move to hire a college coach straight to the MLB.

Edit: Looks like California is 14.4% for the highest earners so possibly even more. (It’s also a progressive tax rate but I’m not doing the exact math)

Don’t forget the cost of living is twice as much as east coast, heck sf might cost 3-4 times as much as Knoxville.

Bruce? BRUCE? Bruce who? Oh, the dude who floated running for Senate as a Jewish Republican in Alabama? Only to retire and take a position within the AD at Auburn leaving... let's see here... Jewish Republican Paul Finebaum to run for the seat?

Let me be clear. I have nothing agains Jewish folks, Paul Finebaum, Bruce Banner, or the Incredible Hulk. I'm just saying... I'm glad we ended up with Rick.

If you don’t have anything against them why was it worth detailing?

If its true about DW taking money from baseball then the majority of this base will turn on DW. Vols fan bade is nuts to begin with. TV has to know just because he is TV and jumping to the majors is not going to end well, unless he just wants out of Knoxville at all cost and I dont buy that

They take money from football and give it to baseball and to the LVs. Every year. I hate all these rumors, but what if they are just giving them some of baseball’s football money. You gonn’ revolt?
