So far so good. IMO hard to make a call either way only 7 games in.Do you feel Coach Heupel has proven he can field a winning team? He came into a dumpster fire of a program with more than 30 players, many key athletes, leaving for other schools. In my opinion he has taken 71 scholarship players and has fielded a very competitive team in a short period of time. It will be a breadth of fresh air to see his future teams bringing Tennessee football back to the Tennessee of old! I'm excited.
With all the players Tennessee lost to, transfers, NFL, i do not know how many but it was alot. He has taken alot less talent than Pruitt had and Tennessee is in these games this year. I know Pittsburgh beat us but they also beat Clemson today.Do you feel Coach Heupel has proven he can field a winning team?

Did Botch Jones prove his worth in 2016 when he went 9-4? Did Conehead prove his worth in 2019 when he went 8-5? What is it with fanatics that always like to declare the latest coach the answer after a only a small taste of success? Time will tell ... be patient and hope for the best.

We looked good every game 2015. We went 5-7 in 2008I think this is the best coached team in over a decade. He’s put together a team full of spare parts from other programs and has them playing much better than I expected.
I won’t proclaim him the savior of the program until he can recruit at least at the level of his last 2 predecessors, but this team is more prepared each week than I’ve grown accustomed to since 2008.
