The ex PSU QB said another coach told him that Schiano told him (the other coach) he'd saw Sandusky molesting a boy. The ex QB never even said Schiano told him that directly.

Why not just sign the contract if the memorandum is just as good? What's the point?
because they probably negotiated terms before Butch was even fired and the contract wouldn't have been valid. There were probably things to work out with OSU as well.

I'm not sold on Schiano being as innocent as he claims, therefore I'm not sold he would so willingly open himself up to the discovery process. UT may as well call his bluff. At this point what do they have to lose?

For all we know Schiano could've sent his letter of resignation to Urban as soon as he signed the MOU. If he had did this that's detrimental reliance based on him having the Tennessee job.
You aren't a lawyer or you are simply trolling.

There’s no way he wants to go through discovery. They’ll pay him a measly sum for his trouble and he’ll sit really still for a couple years and do no interviews and hope this never happens again when he interviews for a head coaching job.

The discovery of what
They never once thought he was an issue during a 4 year investigation by everyone from the county to the state to the feds upturning every single fricking stone in that case. Title IX compliance grilled it over intensely.
There is nothing to discover unless you can read minds

Here's the thing, all you Vol fans who think you're gonna be ok here.
Go back and look at who Schiano's agent is.
Then come back and tell us with a straight face that Tennessee isn't fricked.

I don't know how things work down in Louisiana, but contracts are only enforceable if they are written and signed by both parties. If Schiano doesn't have that, then he has nothing. Tennessee only fricked up by considering him in the first place, not by backing out on the deal. Schiano is just pissed at the situation and looking for someone with deep pockets to sue.

You really think Schiano wants any of this in the news?
I posted this before, but in 2011 he would not comment on if he saw anything Sandusky related.
He never denied anything util 2016 after the documents were disclosed. Documents that were part of a legal deposition.

The AG that investigated the entire Sandusky trial chose not to investigate the Schiano claim because he only viewed it as "hearsay not worthy of inquiry/investigation".
Nice job Vols.

If the rumor about an MOU is true, UT might pay a little to avoid litigation. GS will argue the MOU was binding and likely make arguments about it being common in the industry for coaches to work under an MOU for months before all of the terms of a formal contact are worked out, etc., etc.
UT will argue the language of the MOU likely spells out that it is non-binding.

The allegation paraphrased is that another coach said Sciano saw something that rattled him so bad that he was almost white as a ghost. How in the frick does that translate into him enabling Sandusky? It sounds like it scared the frick out of him. Furthermore, have you forgotten who was in control of that program for 50 years? Peterno had complete control over that program and was a major influence at the university. What would you do if you happened upon that? He could have gone to Joe Pa for all we know and was told to keep his trap shut. This situation involved some very very powerful people at PSU, so maybe take that into consideration before labeling a guy a pedo enabler.

I like how Tennessee fans are using the whole Penn State thing as an excuse. They're really just mad because they best their AD could come up with was a washed up coach.
I was just thinking the same. What if this shitass, didn’t even have the Pedo cloud hanging over him, what would UT fan be thinking.

well that's all well and good in some situations, and he's probably right. But he hasn't even stepped foot on Tennessee's campus yet or worked a day representing himself as a UT employee. He basically negotiated a contract that never got signed. He really has nothing except being pissed it fell through.
