I thought she fired for
divorce last year. I must have been mistaken.
Shouldn't it say...
"from her husband" instead of against her husband? Considering they are trying to do this "amicably"?
Why is this news?
Leave them alone! It is a personal family issue and doesn't reflect on her ability or inability to coach college basketball.
Who owns the Maryville Daily Times? E.W. Scripps?
If she changes her name back...
...will UT re-name the court "The Head"?
Jake, I really wish this
Jake,
I really wish this whole thing wasn't the subject of so much gossip. But I have to say that was damn funny.
From the website: "The Daily
From the website:
"The Daily Times is part of Horvitz Newspapers Inc., which also owns the Peninsula Daily News in Port Angeles, Wash." Elsewhere it says that The Daily Times is a "family-owned" paper.
Scripps owns Blount Today, a weekly that is just over two years old, if memory serves me.
As for the divorce, I heard of a specific incidnet that may have lead to the separation at least a year ago, but didn't know they were separated until the Sports Illustrated special issue following the 7th championship.
Who knows what makes people get married, stay together, or divorce other than the two people involved. And it sure doesn't have anything to do with Pat's abilities as a damned wonderful basketball coach.

The Daily Times hasn't been
The Daily Times hasn't been family owned since it got gobbled up by (ugh) the Knoxville Journal's last editor/publisher Gerald Garcia in 1990 or thereabout. This was a historic event because it violated the JOA between the Sentinel and the Journal and allowed the Sentinel to buy out the contract and make Knoxville a one-(daily) newspaper town.
Those were dark days, and probably the only time I ever cried over an inanimate object. It felt like a death. Still does, when I let myself think about it.

P.S.
the "Head" joke was funny about the first 100 times I heard it.
