If that's the case, then what are schools submitting bids to the NCAA to host next week?
I know there are some coaches that are VERY opposed to the idea and are making that known, but I'd be surprised if the NCAA goes back on it after all the work they've asked schools interested in hosting to do lining up hotel rooms, catering, etc. I've been surprised before, but they are pretty far down the road with this.
I think we'll hear something in the next week or so, bids are due early next week. Tennessee as a department will always bid for anything they can.
