    Definitely fireable offense right there.

    I know I wouldn't survive a 14.5 million dollar loss for my company.

    Isn't bowl money spread out evenly over the SEC teams? Also, he may have actually increased that money by making Vandy bowl eligible.

    Vandy was already bowl eligible with their 5 wins because of APR. There are 40 bowl games this year. There aren't 80 teams with 6 wins.

    74/80.

    4 teams with 5 wins and qualifying APRs.

    8 teams with 5 wins and non-qualifying APRs, but two of them are going bowling anyways because they have to fill up the spots.

    You're 100% right, but you're a genius if you make the hire, a puppet if you don't.

    A lot of athletic directors have huge egos

    Ahh, ok. Some poor sap was going to have to take a 5 win Vandy team in a bowl game? Geez.

    Hell, even Butch wielded quite a bit of power the last 2 years after the season and most fans supported him. They praised the raise and extension in late 14 when the fans were skeered he would go to Michigan even though there was zero % chance that would happen and then another raise in late 15. Just amazing.

    That's a basic difference between you and me. I'll wade right in there with my ignorance and just make a complete ass of myself....

    That seems right. I just looked at the websites for the bowls. It lists a payout per team.

    Realistically, if Moron does leave next week, where is Tennessee at? Do they have anyone in place to make a hire? Any candidates in mind? Interim coach for a year? Shut the program down for a year? I seriously don't know.
