ELIZABETHTON, TN (WJHL) – More than 10 years after last hearing Amanda Berry’s voice, her family in Elizabethton got the miracle they’ve waited for Monday night.
Berry and two other women, who had remained missing for years, were all found alive in a home in Cleveland, OH last night after Berry screamed for help and called 911. — More.

“Butch Jones has beaten Charlie Strong two out of the three times.”
“Can Jones be successful at Tennessee? Only time will tell. But countless comparisons have been made to Derek Dooley, and those comparisons are simply nuts. Dooley didn’t have an ounce of the success when he came to Tennessee that Jones has.”
More perspective from Ben Garrett.
One of my brothers, an avid and educated sports fan, has lived in Cincinnati for many years. Here’s an email I got from him:
“Memo to TN fans: Butch Jones is not the next Brian Kelly.”
I then asked what the reaction was in Cincinnati. He responded:
Not nearly the reaction as when Brian Kelly went to Notre Dame. No feeling here that Butch was that caliber of coach. The SEC is a shark tank and I’m afraid Butch is the next candidate to become shark bait.
