Eh, I think that's a little unfair. Were we a win away from a championship? No. But we saw huge improvement the 2nd half of the season and played everyone tough. We're the freaking Lady Vols. Pat Summitt is the reason women's basketball (and arguably all women's sports) is what it is. If you...

This the THE solution. If you know there are consequences, you're much more likely to prioritize accuracy.

Thanks! The depth chart I was looking at didn't have the super senior designation.

That's a bummer!

Is there an easy way to determine who on our roster maxes out on eligibility this year? Between transfer rules and covid, I find it challenging. There are several critical players that are listed as SR. Thanks!

Boy, hindsight is interesting. I remember when Fulmer took over, Will West and Brian Rice did a good 30 minute segment on the culture of the athletic program. In general, they felt like the "family" environment had died under the last couple of AD's and Fulmer was bringing it back (e.g...

Eh. Many/most people thought it was the right move at the time. There was plenty of evidence that we were headed in the right direction. Even at the beginning of this season, we had the longest winning streak in the nation (P5 conf). Unfortunately, these days, there is tremendous pressure to...

Bowls are really important for the team. $$$$ + practice time for HB :) I'll happily take any bowl they want to invite TN to.

I think I agree with this. And I think I'd feel much less crappy if we beat the teams we're "supposed" to beat and 1 or 2 of FL, GA, AL, A&M.

And I am very confident in saying that would never have happened if you replace Dobbs with JG.

Sure. But as others have pointed out on this thread, the times, they are a changin' The conservative, D first days are in the rear view mirror.

bingo...imo

It's almost impossible to win big without a really high quality QB. Last 10 college national championship QB's and eventual heisman result: 19 LSU - Joe Burrow (winner) 18 Clemson - Trevor Lawrence (none but arguably too young and obviously VERY good) 17 Alabama - Tua Tagovailoa (runner up) 16...

We've moved the ball on every team except the #1 team in the country. I don't think it's time to call for his head quite yet. We've averaged 432 yds/game until today...

I don't understand why people are so afraid of negative analysis. We got romped in every way imaginable. Just pretend that didn't happen? Ignore the problems? Struggles and criticisms are prerequisites for success. Embrace it, learn from it, but don't let it define you. Butch has done a...
