He isn’t wrong. Negativity on social media accomplishes nothing.

Never hurts to ASK “shut the **** up!”

I bet you can count on one hand the amount of negative people on Twitter that would have the same thing to say face to face.

It is the bane of our society.

 

[cHiZzLeVOL]

Oh, I do.

Explain please.

 

[Leeleesteeth]

Another media hack thinking the AD needs something explained to him by a journalist. Never ends.

 

[Air_Force_Vol27]

Thanks for the new Avi lol

 

[WarMachine]

Danny White what is you doin

What good does it do to be negative? How does it make things better? Is it really going to change anything for the better today?

 

[UTSuave’]

My god..that buddy paycheck...he doesn’t even have to earn it either...sad

 

[Smyrna ATL Vol]

HC - Heupel

OC/QB - Lebby
RB - Jay Graham
WR - O
TE - Golesh
OL - Elarbee

DC/LB - Odom
DL - Garner
DB - Martinez

No thanks on Osevet and Martinez. But like the rest.
That would be siiiiickkkkkk

 

[Dudleys87]

The case won’t even be heard until ‘23 at best. We all knew this was the contract at minimum.

 

[BeecherVol]

Does DW actually think the fanbase is going to buy that JH was the #1 option? Really?

Just be honest for once. I’m tired of the BS.

No.
But hes not gonna announce that JH was the 3rd choice or the 8th choice either. True or not its just not the way thats handled.

Had we hired Freeze after not getting, Campbell, Franklin, Fleck or Fickell hes not gonna announce we hired our 5th choice.

How do you stick your fruit basket inside a weedeater.

Has Wes ever used a weedeater?

That's how he shaves

Josh Heupel to earn $4 million annually as Tennessee football coach

Seems about right. Hopefully leaves a bucket for coordinators and a boatload of analysts.

 

[yourstruly23]

Great question from the Chatt guy

David's awesome.. Hosts Press Row here in Chatt.. He prides himself in asking good/somtimes off the wall questions.. glad he's off the UGA beat and covering UT

I agree. It has increasingly become more and more about matchups. And the quarterback has by far and away become the most important position in sports. It has been for a while, but now I would have a hard time finding a close second.

You hate to say this, and it’s kind of unfair, but to a degree the quarterback position here has gotten 2 coaches axed. That’s pretty broad, but ultimately it could be argued.

Oh, it totally has.

Look at the teams that make the CFP (especially the winners) and the teams that make the playoffs in the NFL (especially SB winners or teams making deep playoff runs). They all have elite, or borderline-elite, QB play. The days where you could have average QB play and a team led by a running game or a strong defense are over. Alabama was an exception to the rule there early in Saban's dynasty (Tua was his first truly great QB) but even they aren't anymore. Tua and Jones had eye-popping stats, and this 5-star dual threat they've got coming up will probably continue that.

The game is so passing-oriented (not just offense-oriented, but specifically passing-oriented) due to rule changes and how the game is called that I simply don't think you can be a great team anymore without a great QB. That, plus the athleticism these days of these WRs makes them impossible to cover one-on-one. Because offense is so dominant, the only way to play D today is to have a great pass rush, particularly being able to generate a pass rush without blitzing.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I think there is some personal beef between Tee and Heupel. Trying to figure out more.

Reckon they went head to head over a player or players before?

 

[Catbone]

We have a decent chance to start 3-0 next year.

Apparently Heupel and Shannon don’t care for each other, so I doubt he will be following him here.

D was terrible. Why would you want to bring that with you?

 

[bpvol]

doppelganger for Cutcliffe imo.
View attachment 345837

I was thinking the same thing...a younger, albeit heavier, Cutcliffe. Hope he produces like it!

 

[Vols4us]

Apparently Heupel and Shannon don’t care for each other, so I doubt he will be following him here.

If true, one of the first good things I have read. Shannon is washed up.

Don't care about Tee either. If he hadn't tanked at USC he would not be at UT either. Happy for him being a VFL as a player - as a coach not so much.

Tough road to hoe for Mehupel. Will soon learn if he can overcome it or if he's just another wannabe.

They all say the same things at the presser. The actions that follow are all that matter. I guess I am more pizzed at the propaganda and facade of a real coaching search being done. I also think the program would have been better off with a Chadwell/Steele combo if a big gun could not be hired, two guys that actually know Tennessee and have done something from ground up. Chadwell is the COY on the same G5 level as Mehupel only without the P5 background. Has built lesser programs up from the ground floor. Steele built that strong D at Auburn. Mehupel has built nothing.

But whatever, dey gonna do what dey gonna do. So will I. Pray for the best, expect the worse - that's the Tennessee way.

That would be siiiiickkkkkk

Gonna take some $ to get Odom

 

[Ron Swanson]

Man this place moves fast. Had to skip 50 pages lol.

Watched the presser. I’m sold. All in. Let’s score some points and win!

 

[Pepe]

I’m gonna be honest. I hope Tee leaves today.

I take the Earl Grey

 

[LA Vol]

Tee turned down the Auburn WR job this cycle to stick around, hoping he would have a chance here in 2021 (which Fulmer promised him).

I wish him well.

Tee and his family have had a complicated road with UT. I like him-- always have-- so I'm glad he's moving on. It's best for him. I understand how he feels now, though.
