It's astonishing how entitled & greedy all the Lady Vol staffers have become over the years. I thought it was all about molding the lives of the student-athletes. Oh wait, it wasn't? How about "thanks, UT, for putting more resources into & more emphasis on women's athletics than any other coed institution in America"?! I guarantee you they were all compensated considerably more at UT than they would have been anywhere else in the country for women's athletics jobs. Hello, if it was soooo discriminatory & awful, why the hell didn't they all bail out long ago instead of hanging around for 20-40 years?! Answer: the grass wasn't greener anywhere ... they all would have made significantly less & been treated worse at virtually any other university in the nation. Well, the free ride is over. Non-revenue producing sports don't get to spend money like they are revenue producers anymore. Sorry ... money, unlike no-competition women's basketball championships, doesn't grow on trees ...
