Would Josh Heupel LEAVE Tennessee for another job?

[carolinaviking]

All it takes is a few bad years and the fan base will turn on him

this.

 

[TWVol]

We likely are going to finish 2nd or 3rd in the SEC for 3 out of last 4 seasons.
We will be in the playoffs playing for a NC for the 2nd straight season, and would have in current format in 2022 too...

We are closer than 95% of college football

A lot of ball left to be played, but I hope you’re right. Hopefully the offense can score 60 tonight.

 

[Usaf redhorse]

Yep forget all the playoff BS I want to see a SEC championship first! Not this year though!

Yep hype does have it made makes 9 million a year to go 8-4 or maybe 9-3 . He’s is Tennessees mark right! Classic ass whopping tonight at home ! He will probably ask for a raise!

 

[etsuvol13]

I hope he does

 

[Volnbeers]

**** I hope so

 

[DocVol]

Please take it

 

[Run-da-ball-vol]

No one is going to pay him.

I agree with the general feeling after possibly blowing a very winnable at home tonight. Nobody has looked good offensively or on defense. That being said, last years outing will buy Josh some time. This year will be blamed on the injuries and the defensive woes due to that. Theyre also playing a very defensive minded coach with Huepel being offensive.

Which is fine. What I hope doesn’t happen is Tennessee has to mess with his contract this year to extend him or up his buyout out of “loyalty”

 

[Run-da-ball-vol]

I really don’t see how last year buys him time. We got invited to the party to just get punch thrown on our face from the homecoming queen.

They hadn't been that far in some time and with a below average QB. They just don't have the defense this year to make up for it like last year.

 

[TartanTurff]

Hope so, he has minimal staff that is capable against top tier SEC teams, he beat Alabama in Knoxville in 2022 and 2024, same for Florida but the 2025 Gator Bowl will include 10,000 fans and a bunch of opt outs for the NFL draft

 

[StuckInBamaVol]

Who knows

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

I hope he does

We hope you do

Vandy needs more fans

I wish he would leave

Ok we made it to the expanded playoffs and got our eyeballs beat in. Didn’t win the SEC either.

 

[joevols89]

Heupel has peaked. We could certainly do a lot worse and probably would. It’s a tough situation.

 

[EastTNVol6240]

We can hope

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

This is how we know we have a great HC. Everyone that's looking for a HC wants him. That being said LSU and Florida can keep dreaming. Heup ain't going nowhere.

I wish he would

 

[Remy]

No more extensions from what I saw tonight let him go. He is not the long term coach for UT.

 

[AntiochVol81]

I agree he needs to earn an extension what we have seen so far this year is not it..

 

[volgr]

Another year with an absolutely inexcusable loss. Another year with a sub par coaching staff. Another year where Heupel doesnt properly work the portal.

Heupel needs to be heavily scrutinized after year 5.

 

[Vol865]

Y'all are so entitled with nothing to base the entitlement off of. Heupel dug us out of probably the worst 10-12 year stretch in school history and had one the toughest situation you could've pictured coming into this season. AND MOST OF YOU COMMENDED HIM FOR LETTING NICO LEAVE. This fanbase loves to say they look out for their own but will turn on them the first time something doesn't go their way.

I feel like Danny White gives hIm seven years.
