UT has fired JT today, after 23 years of leading the Vols. The AD gave the reason as "gross misconduct."
www.swiminfo.com has the story.

Coach Bussard used to say, "It's a beautiful day, it's great to be alive!" every day before workout. You always knew you were in for it. This surprises me. JT is a great individual. He is a friend of mine. I feel bad for him and wonder what happened. He was named the SEC Coach of the Year in 2011 for the, I believe, 6th time. Why fire the C.O.T.Y.? Must be something big.
