Did UT just pull a fast one?

[wmcovol]

I heard UT is due a rather large insurance payment for not being able to play in Liberty Bowl due to Covid. Anyone?

around 8 million

3-7

Yes! I did see that. The clause in the policy states that if the team is deemed unable to play due to circumstances beyond their reasonable effort to mitigate, they are due a sum of money. This money will be delivered in a stainless steel briefcase by Gruden at the same time he signs a contract to coach Tennessee Vols football.

I suspected it was alittle to bright for UT administration

It's amazing how many of these topic/threads would cease to exist if Pruitt/Chaney/CW had the ability to do one thing...coach up just one of our highly regarded QB's.

Well considering we only have one highly regarded QB's the odds are not great

 

[Eastknox865]

So you're telling me someone in the administration is smart.

Give the money to Pruitt to kill his contract and tell him to pack up and leave town.

To be left on the front porch of Funk & Wagnall's?

In this year of basketball optimism, this football off season has the potential to have the biggest fan apathy ever. Just not looking forward to 2021..."We done some good things out there today but had about 4-5 plays that I reckon we shouldn't have done which cost us a win, aight? We've got some young guys out there and it's my job to coach them better, even though I should have corrected stuff after the first game, and it's the 10th game."

Soon.

Apply to Pruitt’s buyout. Gangsta move!

If true the insurance company should fire whoever sold that policy.

Fulmer's nephew maybe?

Link?

Because the insurer is, doing due diligence, going to want to review COVID tests, protocols, and perhaps give their own tests before paying a multi-million dollar settlement. A few thousand in testing vs a few million in payouts.

Insurance companies don't play.

Agree. I’ve been in the insurance business for a long time. They didn’t get rich paying bogus claims.

For sure. And perhaps there ARE multiple COVID cases and exposures inside the program.

An insurance payout, for me, would put to rest the "we ducked the bowl, satisfied the SEC, etc" theory. Insurers say "prove it" before they pay a few million to anyone.

Funk & Wagnalls. I liked their “sound of silence” song but never could see the hype for “bridge over troubled water.”
GBO!!

 

[MIT_Beaver]

No one would underwrite a policy like that. Plus, if Fulmer knew of COVID test results prior to accepting the bid then denying the claim would be pretty easy for the adjudicator.

 

[Boca Vol]

UT is simply getting it's SEC bowl revenue share. That's all.

 

[CAVPUT]

Use the money wisely and do what needs to be done.

Yes, & "Hello darkness, my old friend" could be a mantra for long-time Vol fans.
