before I became ill and had to go throw up.
Anyone suing TU should only have to bring up the horrendous details of the EIGHT thugs that got ONE man down AND kicked him in the head (sending at least one of them to the hospital with a concussion) in TWO separate incidents the same night and had basically ZERO punishment for any of them, with NO lawsuits, (probably realized they still had to live in Knoxville, OR ended up with a new car or job), although ONE of them had to miss the opener against Tennessee Martin-----although the team did manage to eke out a 52-0 win in a cliffhanger-------
To prove the type of atmosphere prevalent at Thug U (and no, still my name for them forever), not to mention the "Orange Pride" fiasco they got away with for years.
Hey, it is a business you know, see this about Bama:
"The report also highlighted how important Crimson Tide football is to the athletic department as a whole. Overall profits from all sports checked in at around $16.6 million, which means that without football, the department would have lost about $30 million.
Other notable figures included in the filing were the total football staff salaries (a shade over $18 million, including $7,969,113 for head coach Nick Saban) and recruiting expenses ($1,315,030)."
Bama with the best football program in the nation (arguably), UK with the best basketball program in the nation (arguably), at least we are very fortunate that a lot of fans were willing to sacrifice season tickets in the family for generations in order to force UK to invest more in the money sport.
