Oh, thanks for the heads up. I had no idea it was renamed since I graduated.

The best news would be for Jackie Thomas to announce his retirement effective IMMEDIATELY! :D :D

Hey, let's give President Thomas some credit. He got rid of Biller!

I don't understand all the hate for Dr Thomas I've dealt with him on numerous occasion's and he has always been easy to do with and super polite.

I give Biller credit for firing TVA. Something Gary Johnson and Goldfarb wouldn't do in their last year of employment before retirement.

A reliable source told me it's announcing Matt Tanney as AD and that he will report directly to President Thomas...maybe more but that's the majority of it.

Glad to see UTV covering it. Can't make it in, but this way I get to see it live. Hope those there will post some thoughts, etc.
