There's no love lost between Tennessee fans and Lane Kiffin.

Knoxville attorney Drew McElroy has filed paperwork with the Knoxville City Council's Public Properties and Facilities Naming Committee to rename a waste water treatment plant the “Lane Kiffin Sewage Center,â€￾ according to the Louisville Courier-Journal.

“It dawned on me -- Lane Kiffin told us that he hoped the fans would understand. I thought 'Well, naming the wastewater plant for him would let him know, I think very clearly, we do understand,'“ McElroy told the paper. “We want to memorialize his stay here, and I think this would be doing it appropriately.â€￾

Kiffin was the Vols' football coach for just over a year before leaving Tennessee to take the head coaching job at USC.

Some people need to get over it. I just can't wrap my brain around how folks can get upset because a college coach left. Those folks gotta get a life.

If that is how they feel, why should they get over it? :confused:

I'm not saying people can't be upset about Lane Kiffin leaving. But it comes a point where you have to move on. I mean, Tennessee lawmakers rejected their customary annual resolution to honor the football coach of the University of Tennessee. Now some clown wants to name a waste treatment plant after a coach who took a better job opportunity?

I know people are very passionate about college sports. However, folks need to stop having this celestial attitude toward coaches and the programs they run.

Says who? I think renaming it is a good idea and sets a GREAT precedent until the next azz-wipe comes. :lol:

It would set a precedent for the level of stupidity that resides in the state of Tennessee that the city would rather waste taxpayer money on something serves no purpose. Instead of using that $262 application fee for something stupid, this guy could donate that money to a Hati relief fund or some other charity.

Oh, and it would also remind the people of Knoxville of how Lane Kiffin shyt on them and left for a much better job.

I am sure that plenty of taxpayers in Tennessee, expecially UT grads, donate to several charities.... more than $262 worth. Boy, you will try to pull an angle out the left side of your azz if there is nothing on the right... :lol:

The bottom line is that it's their business, their money, their choice! PERIOD! ...and I like it!
