Probably not, but as a potential new coach you have to weigh the possibility that they will be.

When do you expect someone to be hired?

I'll take Byrd. Why they would chose Gregory over Marshall is beyond me.

There are multiple reports now that UT has it's guy. Lawrence Frank and Brian Gregory are the two names being thrown around.

I'm only hearing Gregory. I have no idea why they would rush to hire him.

I don't know why its surprising, Tennessee is a better job than this but not so good that having NCAA problems won't scare some people off. If you manage to get Frank just consider yourselves lucky and go with it.

FWIW I used to lurk on ESPN's college basketball message board from time to time and I remember some Dayton fans talking about how they wanted Gregory fired and Grant to replace him (Grant's alma mater).

If UT is hiring Gregory, it would mean they're passing on better candidates. That's why this would suck.

That'd be an interesting hire to say the least

frick. shite frick arse titties.

If we take Gregory and not Byrd I will be pissed. Frank would be a grand slam at this point.

I believe this scenario was predicted days ago when some drunken vols were crowing about all the high profile coaches they were going to steal away.
