Breaking News: UT offers Mike Leach; Troy Calhoun second in-line
By Dan Harralson and Nick Taylor
The Sports Times Network has learned today, through a close source, that The University of Tennessee will ask Mike Leach to become the next head coach of the Vols. If for what ever reason Leach were not to accept the offer, second in-line is Air Force's head coach Troy Calhoun. Coach Calhoun is a great friend of The Sports Times Network and is a class-act. We hope the best for him if he accepts an offer by Tennessee (which we were told he will if Leach does not) or stays with The Air Force Academy (if Leach were to accept UT's offer.)
God Bless,
The Sports Times Network
