I received my degree from UT and lived in Knoxville off and on for about 10 years. Perhaps I'll retire there. Having been in Middle Tennessee for the last 33 years I may be a little behing the curve but Knoxville was a paradise for a golfer and fisherman (I did both). There's many courses in the area and you can find one, public or private, that you'll like. The fishing is super! Rivers and lakes abound and you can target just about anything from trout to gar. I always liked bass best and the rivers are great there. The folks in East Tennessee are like all Tennesseans, friendly and hospitable. There's all the major college sports and UT usually fields great teams even if they are a little down right now. You won't have any problem keeping busy! In short, sometimes I wish I'd never left town when I graduated. Good luck, keep what you want to eat and toss the rest back!
