OT: Tennessee's AD is $200m in debt

  • Thought this was interesting after there was some discussion during the offseason that Tennessee might go after BOB. Obviously the big question with BOB was money. Knowing the debt they were in...I don't know if that makes it more or less likely that they would go after BOB (if he was interested). They have no problem spending non-existent money, but you'd think they would want to work their way out of that hole at some point.

    I guess they operate on the concept of "spending money to make money," without actually doing the latter.

    With the sanctions in place PSU turning into Tennessee is my biggest fear. Our athletic department is incompetent I just really hope this never happens in happy valley. 10 years ago nobody would have thought it would have happened in Tennessee.

  • Rock bottom is when your only winning season the last five years came when lane Kiffen was your head coach and subsequently chose to leave for a school entering multiple years of sanctions.. I feel for vols fans, they were at the top of college football a little over a decade ago...

    PSU is one of the most fiscally responsible universities of it's size. That's a longshot.
