Reggie McKenzie: former Vol is the right stuff for the Raiders

Good things tend to happen to good people, until proven otherwise. If ESPN’s Adam Schefter is correct, a good thing is about to happen to one of the good guys of the NFL. Reggie McKenzie — Knoxville native (Austin-East H.S.) and former Tennessee Vol (1981-84) – will be named the new General Manager of the Oakland Raiders. This can’t be rendered as official news until Green Bay exits the NFL playoffs. And, that might be a while. [UPDATE: the Associated Press indicated just after this was posted that the Raiders have announced an agreement with the Packers for McKenzie, and a press conference has been announced for next Tuesday.]
