[Mr_Twister]

Butch Jones' right-hand man is removed from the program. This can't be good for the Vols.

Job opening for a parent of a recruit?

Hi...Mr Hansard....This is Butch Jones from Tennessee

 

[cicero grimes]

It does not say if it is a legal problem that is personal to him or something to do with the program. My guess is it is a personal thing.

Nothing of substance on this Vols forum, but they have their fair share of the sky is falling posters too.

Wonder if anyone will be blaming Butch's GA days for the reason Spognardi had to go [winking]

Misappropriated into recruits pockets?

I know a former AD who may be available .....

10 days later and still no details on Spognardi's suspension. Spognardi was relieved of his duties after a financial audit found irregularities related to his job.

 

[Mr_Twister]

Another week has gone by with no details on Spognardi's suspension. Does the Tennessee Athletic Dept or the Butch Jones recruiting staff tell the local media when they can start investigating? Or SEC stories have to be blessed by Paul Finebaum before they can be reported?

It is easier to get info from the Kremlin than it is to get anything harmful to an SEC football program.
