The New York Time was breaking the Hostess/Escort story!!

State Run Radio?????

Will Basilio call their hands on this or will he polish Kiffin's   like the rest of the media?

Don't hold your breath.  He is firing up the black helicopters:  NYT, Slive, Fulmerites, the NCAA.  Look for him to have bamafever in as a guest host later today.

He did offer words of comfort:  Said UT football was here long before Coach Fulmer got here and would be here long after Lane was gone--or words to that effect.

DANGERVOL summed [Basilio] up:
"The greatest quote in Knoxville radio history [was] when Kiffin was hired.  Hyams was interviewing Pete Carroll - Basilio was talking to W. Lynn and Small Mike. Absolutely classic!"

No, everyone does not do it...

Who knew UT had hired Tiger Woods to be the football recruiting coordinator?

If silly Basilio and Adams are not going to investigate, put Tiger on it.  He would find them all.

 Sky,

   Lets try it this way, since the trim angle is not doing it for you. Hundred dollar handshakes exist EVERYWHERE.

So do murders and bank robberies. That doesn't make them right either.

My Dad retired from the KNS, he sold ads as an Account Executive and I love the KNS.  I want to know why they were scooped? I could dance on the graves of the various radio and multi media folks that cover UT sports and they all deserve any criticism I could throw out.

Now to the rude crude part of my post!! You can kiss  that UT  all you want and do your silly radio shows and go to the various UTAD  and enjoy yourself smelling the staff and the boosters butt crack. But if you miss this story you lose credability!! Adams, Griffin etc get your nose out of Hamilton and Lanes  and do your job!! This story has been floating around for days and the atmosphere surrounding the program created an enviroment in wich the common guy  is almost afraid to call the hands of those birds in fear of the farm animals. Objectivity has been forced into the gutter, but the damn press is suppose to do its job. What would have happened in Boston in 1776 if Benjamin Franklin was more concerned with kissing British  than fighting for Freedom and democracy?
