Well that didn’t take long. Less than three months into his tenure as Tennessee Vols athletic director, John Currie has a decision to make for one of the major sports.
He had already fired men’s tennis coach Sam Winterbotham, but baseball is a much bigger deal than tennis. And baseball coach Dave Serrano is set to step down at the end of the season.
So now, Currie gets to face his first big decision.
Sure, baseball isn’t football, basketball, or even women’s basketball. But it still does draw fan interest, especially when the team is good.
