100%. This is not a situation that's unique to Tennessee and had we not paid Nico what he wanted his dad would've been a pain in someone else's rear the last two years. I suspect he's not going to behave much better at UCLA unless Nico tells him to stay out of his business.

He's got the right attitude and the right stuff between the ears--if he ends up balling out he will go down in Tennessee lore. Other than just generally being a Tennessee fan I can think of about 10 other reasons I'd like to see him succeed.

Haha. The way he made that poor GA tote that thing around the sideline for him to sit his brainless butt on was one of the most pretentious things I've ever seen.

I don't mind the show but some of the segments could be done without. A few weeks ago they had a segment on "what if" Saban came out of retirement and wanted to coach for Tennessee. I know its for entertainment, but to me it was kind of a slap in the face to Heupel and I didn't find it very...

Both me for. I don't want to lose a good player and I also want nothing but the best for him so long as he keeps his head on straight, finds a path back to the team and represents the program with pride. If leaving is his desire--then I don't wish anything bad to happen to him, but I also...

It does. He’s gone and I’ll be shocked if otherwise.

I hope that you're right.

Trying to save face now that he didn't get what he wanted and will be making less money. If being close to family was more important than NIL money he likely wouldn't have even considered coming across the country to Tennessee. I do realize that his father played a large part in all of this...

Imagine your kid literally making millions and getting a free education to play college football at one of the biggest stadiums and most prestigious programs in the country where they will get tons of NFL brand exposure and you totally wreck it for them. I wouldn't be able to live with myself.

Something to be said for the part in bold and I completely agree with you. I hope that eventually we can build up that type of roster where if you mess around the next guy up is nearly as talented as you are. Right now we don't really have that kind of depth, so drama kings like Nico and Boo...

No, if I felt that way I would've suggested that you become Memphis fans.

I suppose--just seems something like that would be reserved for a more game opponent. It may not even be done by 2027 while noosegate is being investigated.

Basically a tune up game for us at Neyland. I doubt that we give in to TSU and play it in Nashville as that would be kinda silly. But who knows.

I agree. I don't get the feeling that this will be a blowout. We may cover, but I don't think that we win by 3-4 scores. I'll gladly come back and happily eat crow if we do; but it's the first game of the season and anything can happen unless we've really tightened it up and come out with...

2022 is over and done with and nothing is going to change that. What should be investigated is the condition of their field. It seems like every season someone gets a nasty injury on it. I'm not sure if they soak it down prior to big games or its just poorly maintained, but its not a safe...
