But that is how it works. You don't need to be smart if you have $$$. TStan threw all his weight into the money guys and they HATED the TO. Hated. They want a Cadillac but have a Yugo budget. But it's what greases the skids so TStan bent over and said, "Whatever you want boys'. And here is where...
Are you asking would a city provide an incentive for them to relocate? Yes. The ACC distributed $500 million to member schools. Most states (and some cities) have economic development departments that do just that.
The most likely place would be near where a major airport is located or one with a large media presence. Seems to me Washington DC (or Baltimore) fit the bill, or perhaps Philly/NY. Richmond could also work as well. Atlanta works but ... unless there is a southern strategy, I don't think so...
I look at it differently. Butch Jones was the seventh (yes, 7th) choice for Tennessee in the coaching search. No one wanted the job. No one wanted the job when Pruitt was hired. Literally. And this is a program that is Top 5 facilities, an incredible fanbase, huge swag sales, private aircraft...

Not exactly the ideal resume for a P5 team. My theory had been that TStan would give Geoff more money to upgrade assistants after more legacy costs...
Good reminder. But the days of 25 year runs are over. Finebaum discusses this and said that even for a successful coach, ten years is the max today. That’s why if you want to get a new coach, find all the ones who are 8-9 years in a program. They are probably ready to change.
Curry decided it was time to go after someone chunked a brick through his window. His wife said she was tired of it and wanted out. Much like Butch Jones’ wife who was spat on at the grocery store.
I think we lose to Duke. And every remaining game this year. And after a heart wrenching “Win one for the Gipper” speech, we beat UGA, deny them the Natty, and extend Collins contract another seven years. And build him a statue next to ... Bud Carson.
