As some of you know I come across inside info every now and then, all of it pertaining to UT Basketball. This person works for UT in the athletic department, and I don't want to specify where, but let's just say he deals with players VERY often. Anyway, like I said, the info is always basketball related, but this was such a big deal that the entire AD knows about it. My guy just clued me in.
Apparently Mike Bajakian and Coach Jones had an absolute blowout, irreconcilable argument and it had to do with player personnel. There was obvious tension and all the players knew about it, and even took sides. This has a lot to do with the current player attrition. It didn't just have to do with offensive personnel.
Bajakian approached Jones after the Iowa game to let him know that he would start looking for other jobs. Coach Jones stopped him mid-sentence, reached into his pocket and spaghetti falls out. Coach Jones tried to clean it with his jacket. It just smears everywhere. Coach Jones becomes so embarrassed that he runs out of the room crying. See, it is easy to make stuff up.
