Someone probably said it already, but taking a knee is the equivalent of charity in football. Being a Vol Fan who has been on the other side of the kneel, that makes me madder than another TD being tacked on. I dont need your sympathy or your mercy! All that to say, run it up CJH, leave no doubt…

When Sean M gets so excited that he goes full on Peter Brady voice change you know something big just happened.

That 3 week span up until the INT in OT against A&M was the closest we have been to relevant since ‘07 ( real relevance in ‘01 IMO). Between the Georgia game and the 2nd half come back against the Aggies, I actually thought they might have a touch of destiny. Of course, it actually was the...

I might have had a bit of doubt and worry about Cornbread’s accusations until he uttered Rick Barnes’ name. I think most would be shocked if there was an ounce of truth that he could actually prove. Phil and over zealous boosters- absolutely. I would be surprised if some of that wasn’t true, but...

This right here. I can’t remember where I posted it and it might have been Twitter, but this is the truth. Recruits are exceptional athletes and I am certain that these kids have seen much worse at a weekend travel ball tournament or in the little league stands. Seriously, most of the horrible...

The preaching and admonishing clock surely will run out today. That small percentage who actually participated in that mess either doesn’t clearly remember it or couldn’t care less about the opinions of what justifies a “classy”’or “real” fan. While sad and embarrassing, no message board post...

This poll is like asking if you support saving the earth instead of Do your support spending 10 trillion dollars to slow climate change. The devil is in the details.

I actually don’t think it affects anything at all. Parents, who are generally adults, saw and recognize 4 things to be true. First, Social Media outrage isn’t real life. Second, clearly the fans are loyal to the ends of the earth. Thirdly, if they watched, they know and understand that...

In one way, yes. In another, no. In yet another, too soon to tell. Yes- being that was the first sign that the O could get open and score against SEC teams and the D was actually in the right spot at the snap. Both something Cornbread’s teams could never really do. No- the game was more...

Totally

I’m not sure when I last logged in to comment last, but a couple of observations. First, when reading these threads you wouldn’t know if it is 2013 or 2021. Replace BJ or DD with CJH and the comments are the same. Some too quick to abandon the new coach and some willing to let us wallow in...

I know we’ve been in the gutter for a decade, but we still are a sizable upgrade from OM. Tennessee is a much better place to live, has better facilities, and TN is suddenly a really good state to recruit out of. While other coaches see trouble on the horizon, I think Lane would see a chance to...

He is the best realistic option to win football games at this moment in time IMO. I was as mad as anyone when he left. However, depending on who you listen to, he made it clear when hired that if USC called, he would go. I don’t fault him anymore, the timing was just brutal. I really believe he...

I would be one of the happiest Vols alive if we could hire Kiffin. He has the confidence and swagger this program desperately needs. If there was ever a time we needed kids to believe, this is it.
