With our track record....we are most likely waiting on the lowest bidder.

Other than that I have no idea.

How dare you use the word "buzz" when discussing basketball coaches?!?

Houston, we have a problem!  You need to stay in your Lane and cut that crap out.

I honestly have no clue right now, but if I had to guess, I think White.

Tony? I'd be good with that. Reggie would have been fine too.

I question James A.'s ability to relate to players,  fans, internal combustion engines,  the media, or pretty much anything. Native American and British players are most likely not options.

He is preferable to Tyndall.

Supposedly Donnie Tyndall, Michael White, and Richard Pitino are in the mix. Chris Mack, Mitch Cronin have been mentioned. I don't see an "upgrade" in that group. I really do not want little Ricky Pitino. Tyndall looks like a cartoon character. I hope it is White. I don't understand UT philosophy. Go all in on facilities, and skimp on coaching salary. I suppose it is a function of current revenue stream.

After this latest round of facilities enhancements, maybe UT should rethink its philosophy. Clearly teams with lesser facilities kick our asses routinely

I see a couple of upgrades in that group. I don't want Pitino, and I'm far from sold on Mack. I don't know enough about Tyndall to comment on him. But IMO Mitch Cronin has done a heck of a job at Cincinnati, and I would take White in a heartbeat.

Jon Gruden. His wife is a former UT cheerleader, he was a graduate assistant under Majors, and he and his wife on property somewhere in East Tennessee.  He is the obvious choice.

It'll be Cronin.  We took their football coach, we'll take their basketball coach, too.  Then, we'll take King's Island and Gold Star Chili.

IKR?  But everyone up there thinks it's the greatest chili in the world.  I think it tastes like reheated leftover spaghetti.  

But I'd take King's Island all day.  I'd even trade them Dollywood for it.

FWIW, Parrish is reporting this morning that White has emerged as the leader.

Yep.  Been a while since we have been there, but that is the theme park our kids preferred over all of the rest - there and King's Dominion in Virginia.

Now that I have Grandsons I have feeling we'll be doing that again before too long.

There isn't a whole lot to love about the state of Ohio, but between KI and Cedar Point, they have some awesome roller coasters.

Daughter's going there with her school Orchestra trip. We've been a few times, only a  1.5 hr trip for us. It's fun
