Do you all think the high speed offense is gonna make a comeback this year? I know the TN coaches/players were talking about playing faster and more aggressive on offense during fall camp interviews. I think it's because they know they'll be more benefit to it this year.

Crackdown on faking injuries among rule changes
ESPN said:
To combat the practice of feigning injuries, the rules committee passed a rule that if a player presents as injured after the ball is spotted by officials, that team will be charged a Team Timeout or a delay penalty if all timeouts have been used. That player must remain out of the game for at least one down, even if that team is granted a team timeout and may not return to the game until receiving approval of professional medical personnel designated by their institution.

This may be huge for us this season. It was very frustrating to watch and constantly slowed down the offense.

Now if they could just add a tar and feather penalty to those dang turtle speed refs who spot the ball slower than molasses we’d be in great shape.

It doesn’t fix it.

Now the coach will tell the defense anytime there is a long offensive play or anytime they feel momentum changing or anytime they need a timeout to fall down BUT make sure you do it before ball is spotted and you are all good.

Stupid rule doesn’t fix the problem it just changes when the defense takes the dive.

Our portal CB's are good. I would rather see us recruiting and developing our own. Our Oline does have two five stars. One of which played last year and looked awful most of the year. Then we will hear he was injured, but where is the depth behind him if the coach has been through 5 recruiting cycles. You think our pass blocking is great? And WR's, we will find out this year if it was Nico or the receivers last year. These are the three underperforming groups. They'be been here long enough to know. If we can upgrade, we should if things aren't drastically improved in these three areas. Everyone of these coaches have been through at least 3 classes. We've been on the upswing for four years. Where would we be at if these three positions were recruited and developed as well as the rest of the team? How in the heck are we not landing top level wr's in this offense?

I am really really hoping that Nico was the problem with the wr production and pre snap alignments. If this is the case, these coaches should look a lot better this year. If not, how much longer of a history do you need?

Disclosure. I’m a homer 90% of the time.

Also, I’m four jalapeno margaritas deep.

That said, I really believe the addidas deal is a watershed moment for our Vols and we’re about to join the ELITES in college football.

Or everyone else will get a pay raise as a result.

But I like your belief better.

Probably has more to do with your post to like ratio. 1:4 is bare minimum……twss.

I’ll have you know it’s 1:3 and it’s the strongest 1:3 you’ve ever seen. It brings all the trolls to the yard. Damn right, it’s better than yours. I could teach you, but I’d have to charge.
