It could always get worse

The UT Athletic Department is doing a masterful job of dropping the Vols football program down an open elevator shaft.After showing they can’t win games, the Vols are now showing they can’t even hire a coach. How can finding some guy to pay $3 million a year really be so challenging?To make matters worse, there’s the possibility UT could have to pay damages to Greg Schiano, the former Penn State assistant who was set to inherit the Rocky Top throne before he was convicted as a child molester Sunday afternoon on social media.Vol football has never sunk lower. Even the White House, yes the White House, weighed in on the UT coaching search as press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders posted on Facebook that Schiano is “the guy who covered for Jerry Sandusky.”That’s exactly what I want from my federal government: low taxes, a strong national defense, and senseless input on college football coaches.It’s amazing to see how the Vols fell so far so remarkably fast.In 2015, UT had one of the five best teams in the nation.
