If it's truly King Phillip I, all of this is completely worth it. That will mean the House of Haslam no longer controls the throne.
Leach is a painful battle to lose but winning the war is worth it.
Shite done got real.
Possible side effect maneuver: Washington State President likes Currie. Leach is supposed to have some say in choosing their new AD. I suspect Currie and Leach made a "scratch my back snd I'll scratch yours pact" in LA yesterday. Currie becomes WSU AD, Leach gets fat new contract.
Big questions: Peyton sided with Haslam, without caring how it hurt UT, in exchange for Haslam promising to help the Mannings get an NFL franchise. What's next for Peyton? How do Vol's fans feel about their beloved Peyton betraying UT for the sake of his own greedy self interests?
What a shitshow! Yet I can't look away.

This is more than just Phil taking over. This is a direct shot at the Haslams. Jimmy Truckstop tried to get Currie's assistant in and it got DENIED

The other choice considered to replace Currie per people on campus was Reid Sigmon, Currie’s No. 2 and chief lieutenant. Multiple sources said that Sigmon was backed by Jimmy Haslam while Fulmer possessed resounding support among other constituencies, including boosters John ‘Thunder’ Thornton and Charlie Anderson.
Some national reports are indicating Fulmer is in this position after refusing to help the UT search, and actively trying to sabotage it, but sources indicate to me that Fulmer only finds himself in this spot after Currie’s “lone wolf” approach and refusal to tap into Fulmer’s assistance during the search beyond some phone calls.

What will become of Pay-tonne in Vol folklore? He's looking like a traitor.
