We were right... he IS Tigerscane...

He will still be ceo and chairman of the board

He's stepping back to prepare for his upcoming job as Big XII Commissioner

Nail meet head

Fred is a good friend of the Tigers, I wish him all the best as the C.O.B. BTW don't be bitter about folks with money, the Dude earned his and is generous with it. Who knows one day u might hit the lottery and have BIG MONEY

Fred was born with big money

I know he created fed ex, so he got BIGGER MONEY. We r each born into our own gene pool. Mine was a poor one, but I'm hapy fo folks like the Kennedys who don't have to work a day in their life and get away with a lot

I bet not one of you knuckleheads are over 40. That man has done more for our University than any man dead or alive. You younger degenerates need to have some respect. All of his transgressions were tried, if needed, in a court of law in the good ole USA.

So, what? He did not sit on his pile of cash and use it to wipe his rear. He built FedEx from scratch and has been great to the University of Memphis and the City of Memphis in general...

FS is the best. This city owes him everything. It's easy to be a little salty about wealthy guys and their piles of cash when you're a working stiff but this is a man who worked his ass off and kept it all here in this town.

Fred is Memphis. Show some respect. There's plenty of people from money in this town who did nothing with it. What he did doesn't happen in a place like Memphis. It's an outlier. The man is simply a genius.

Jealousy is an awful thing.

He was supposed to be ashamed of that, give it all away to Unionman76 and then start FedEx with absolutely nothing...
