Haslam calling State Legislators???

He's half right. The state legislature doesn't make the coaching hire. However, the University of Tennessee is a large public land grant institution. It does not answer to shareholders like a for profit, but ultimately answers to the state of Tennessee and the various communities that the campuses are located in. It is there to serve the people of this great state who serve as the shareholders. Management at UT's Knoxville campus is responsible not only to the board of trustees but to the community and state at large. When shenanigans such as what has been happening with this coaching hire go on, it is a right thing for the citizens to contact their state representatives to voice disapproval. Frankly, Jimmy Haslam should stay out of the coaching search as he has proven to be an abject failure in competence with this task.

Yep! Browns are 0-11. Those jackasses have no business being anywhere near football if any kind

I’m told Browns owner, and Tennessee booster, Jimmy Haslam, has been personally calling members of the Tennessee legislature who were critical of Schiano hire and telling them: “You don’t make the Tennessee hire, we do.”

oh, so he is the ad. right.

someone needs to stand up to him.
why can't bev and dipietro just fire currie, hire who they want (blackburn) and let him hire the coach? why does everyone have to do what haslam says?

Because Haslam chose Davenport and DiPietro.

It's amazing someone with that much money can be that tone deaf and stupid.

I think tone deaf and stupid are the reasons Haslam's company isn't looking good in court right now. What's worse for Jimmy is that one high level exec has pled guilty and is telling tales. Jimmy has two ways to go - complicit and guilty of fraud or incompetent by claiming all this was done without his micromanaging knowledge (guess he was too busy hiring UT coaches).

I love these posts. We are now awaiting any word from Mr. Clickbait with baited breath. He is one of the biggest wastes of air in media, has had his credentials pulled numerous times for reporting pure malarkey. He is loving the fact that a group of fans are treating him like the second coming at this point. Up until the latest fiasco with this hire, most on this site would not have even given "out kick the coverage" a cursory glance. :rolleyes:

Dude. Pilot Flying J stores are actually some of the worst. Usually not all that clean and very disorganized. Their fast food restaurants are generally poor service too.

Weigel’s in Knox are are awesome. Here we have WaWa and Daily’s, and Gate’s. And believe it or not, RaceTracs are really nice here, too. All smoke Pilot.

In upstate New York, nobody passes up a Stewart’s for a Pilot.

Clay Travis is still junk, though. He sure knows how to tell fairy tales.

I am curious who the undisclosed or even mentioned source of his report is?!? You would think source this would be mentioned if there was even a shred of truth to the report. I love twitter, absolutely no evidence is required to put a tweet out into the world.

He will not tell Beth Harwell what to do. Diane Black, season ticket holder, also spoke up. Is harrassment the next thing up.

We can only hope he may have said something out of line to them, then national media will pick it up. This has to get out to the masses.

Kum and Go is my favorite of the travel stops. But they're only in the Midwest.

And no, it's not because of the name. :)
