    Your first trip to Neyland??

    1955, my Dad took me to see Georgia Tech game that ended in a 7-7 tie. It was an overflow crowd of 50K. :)

    Z's Quarter-Century BasketVols Team

    I can't believe Ernie & Bernie didn't even make top 3 teams. You need to rethink this list.

    Danny White tops $3 million in pay, remains highest paid AD

    Everybody spends "our money." The key is how elll it is spent. I believe, as a die-hard Vol fan, our Return-on-Investment has been pretty generous.

    Lady Vols Softball Coach Karen

    Coach Weekly also cost a lot of other teams a chance to even get to the WCWS. The Lady Vols just lost to a better team. I am proud of this team and their accomplishments.

    Lady Vols Softball Coach Karen

    Do you know how many players are on a team, besides the pitcher? Every player has to execute to win a natty. How many teams would love to have the success that KW has brought to K'town?

    Rick Barnes is 7-2 in the NCAAT the last three years but

    It is very difficult to get to the Final Four. It is "usually" reserved for the "Blue Bloods" of college basketball. The Vols have had some good teams but they aren't a "Blue Blood" yet. By almost any metric, CRB's tenure at U-T has been a resounding success. He has taught teams how to win the...

    Hugh Freeze diagnosed with cancer

    I am glad it was only an infection. The "C" word is scary. BTW, my wife is also a cancer survivor...18 years this past December.

    Maybe the loss to Ole Miss was a good thing?

    I agree. We just haven't played well enough on the road to be able to do the big dance. Obviously, I hope I'm wrong. It has been a solid season, no matter how far we go.

    Hugh Freeze diagnosed with cancer

    I am a 10-yr survivor of prostate cancer. Mine was detected early. My PSA was normal but my Primary Care doctor noticed that the numbers showed a slight increase with each test. She sent me to a Urologist, who confirmed the cancer. He monitored it closely for 3 years until he said, "we are at a...

    How is Houston ranked ahead of Vols?

    They used the "eye" test, which will tell almost anyone that Houston is a better team than the Vols. Remember, they play whomever is on their schedule. If those teams are or are not in Top 20 is not on Houston. Add to that, Houston is a historically good BB program. They will make it to the E-8...

    Seismic shift in the college football landscape

    You make some good points. I believe the top priority should be to put some rules and oversight over NIL. If players want to be paid like Pros, they should sign contracts, in order to receive their NIL windfall. Let's say they must sign for two years before receiving their NIL windfall. This...

    ESPN, Fowler and Herbstreit

    ESPN has financial difficulties because they are owned by the penny pinching Disney. They had to shed some of their really good talent to satisfy Disney. Remember, ESPN is NOT just a sports network. The "E" in "ESPN," is for "Entertainment. They are officially the "Entertainment and Sports...
