There is an obvious financial benefit to that, and it could be part of the renegotiated buyout. And IF a replacement is already in place the delay does not effect you adversely....unless your numbskull coach plays a kid with a concussion.

Which potentially throws a wrench into the negotiations between Currie, Jones, and Sexton. It could be now that the AD and staff are having to launch an investigation before finalizing such contract

On foxsportsknoxville they said that Currie and Jones got intro a straight up screaming match over this. Dunno if thats true. But they said they had a reliable person tell them that.

I wonder if it's possible the Kendrick situation could potentially interfere with Butch Jones being able to actually find a landing spot. Because of that, maybe the AD is having to buy a little time to either renegotiate or fire with cause? Just a thought....

If Butch is at fault on the concussion thing...what is amazingly horrific is Butch feeling he has to risk a players long and short term health in a desperate attempt to defeat...KENTUCKY of all teams. These are his recruits..this is HIS team and after 5 and some odd years he has plummeted the program to the point that he has to employ desperate measures in an effort to beat a team this program had dominated and defeated the last 31 out of 32 times.

He may be..It's not Saturday. Could also be fired with an end date. Also, could have predicted we'd have an internal investigation going on right now.

We are in an age where everyone wants to know everything NOW.

Unfortunately, I feel like we are currently trying to figure things out that haven't even been decided yet.
And some that were decided but are now changing.
I think one of the insiders alluded to changing dynamics early on. But they also said that the end result will not change.

You mean the second that the report went public and Currie didn't immediately fire Jones doesn't necessarily mean that nothing happened? Nonsense...........

Boro you said you were staying pretty quiet this go round. But what about last time? Was it true about a stake in the Browns? We didn’t poney up enough cash?

WTF happened

What do you make of the fact that the same site (thereadoptional) broke these three stories in the last week?

1 Gruden offered $10 million per by TN
2 Butch buyout worked out so he can land elsewhere
3 Brett Kendrick concussion

What’s at play here? Who is behind this and who benefits?

Im curious if the BK concussion just happen to come out or if it may be some of the boosters that leaked it to force Currie's hand to speed up this deal or maybe Haslam trying to wreck the deal?

Also i dont understand if Antone Davis was fed up with Butch and how bad things were under him, why would he resign if Butch is being replaced? That worries me a little.

....but soon!

I have figured out the Kendrick ordeal.He came off field woozy,Grude Awakening caught wind and rushed to the sideline,told him the story about the basketball game and the broken nose and before the coaches could stop him he yelled"to hell with y'all I'm playing for the pecker".The rest is history

I know its Weds but i can't help thinking that Currie puts himself in jeopardy and the Univ in really vulnerable position by letting Lyle roam the sidelines this Sat. Heck even oversee practice..The GC ...compliance..and AD have to be discussing this. if anyone at univ says we can't act because that will put us in a more vulnerable place by admitting coaches knew..God help them

it would take some really pointed and specific information to be given out to make bj directly responsible for the kendrick situation. There are multiple people and policies in place to make sure it doesnt fall on the head coach to make the decision. Including doctors whos only job it is to look for injuries and symptoms. Not saying it isnt possible but it is unlikely.
