I’d take Urban in a heartbeat. He’ shown the touch at 3 different schools. And I’m really really tired of losing.

I probably should have excluded that comment because yes, Chaney for one certainly knows the SEC. But frankly, I couldn't see much difference between his play-calling in the Ga. St. game and what we saw last year with Helton. The Tennessee O is, for lack of a better word, boring.

When Tennessee suffers a humiliating loss like the one last Saturday, the response here on VN is predictable – first, hysteria; then come the sunshine pumpers. They offer up 35 different and imaginative excuses to explain how, despite the Ga. St. debacle, Pruitt is still the man who will make...

I've read this "keeping it vanilla" b.s. for years now and I'm sick of it. I suppose the O.P. was just being sarcastic. We weren't keeping it vanilla today. We just had a coach that didn't give a damn and a team that didn't give a damn. If Butch Jones set back the UT program, then Pruitt...

Looking worse than last year’s team. Three and out for Pruitt?

😄😄

Unless & until we get a better OL, it seems our QBs will have to run for their life on every play. So why not have a QB who can do so?

Been checking the score on my iPhone. Did Coach Barnes let Holly Warlick coach the 1st 10 minutes of the game? Just wondering.

Kinda like something being not quite right with the Titanic after it met the iceberg??

I’ve kept a tally of those rumored to be UT’s next OC and so far the only names not mentioned are Nick Saban and the late Pat Summit. Any others?

Defense wins games - who would have thought!

I’m seeing the same pattern here on VN as I saw with Dooley & Jones. First year: “It’s the players’ fault! We’ll be great once we get better players.” Third year: “It’s the coaches’ fault! We’ll be great once we get better coaches!”

That is on the coaches - it's part of their job to get players excited about playing UT football. This might rank as one of the worst wins in the history of Tennessee football. Don't know what tickets for this game cost, but the coaches, players, and AD own the fans a sincerely apology.

One pattern you invariably see when a team is rebuilding, with a new coaching staff, is this: they win games few expected them to win, and then lose games the coulda, woulda, shoulda won. In 1964, Doug Dickey's 1st year as HC, the Vols were 4-2-1 after beating favored Georgia Tech, #7 in the...

Fact or speculation?
