Laughed at "more mature"- We're just OLD!

Lets not forget Jack "Hacksaw" Reynolds if we are talking Vol linebackers but I do believe Al Wilson was the best "Leader" to ever wear the orange and white.

No. We could put up 45 and still lose.

Lack of depth on defensive side of ball is biggest liability with CJHs offensive approach. Conditioning and bringing in transfers are only hope. Fear we may see a lot of leads disappear late in games. However, having a lead late in games would still be a big improvement over recent history and...

Should it be taken into consideration will likely be an irrelevant question in the eyes of the NCAA. Their rulings tend to ignore unfair impact on any institution other than a select few that they are actually afraid of (Bama, tOSU, etc.).

This X1000! At least half of the SEC coach firings in the last decade was a direct result of not being able to compete with Saban. The other half was just due to coaching ineptitude. Unfortunately, UT has been a major contributor to this latter category.

For the record, we probably shouldn’t hang the firing of any coach around the neck of JG. It is the coach who decides who plays under center.

It is the Missouri example that should worry everyone. That and the general inconsistency of NCAA rulings. Do we get a logical jurist or the “hanging judge”?

First time in Neyland in 1968 as a 12 year old watching the Vols destroy UCLA. Sugar Bowl in 1986. National champs in 1998. Game 6 of the 2011 WS at Busch watching David Freese bring the Cards back from the brink then homer for the win in extra innings. Best BB game I ever witnessed in person.

Yes, unfortunately TV ratings are based on the number of people watching a given program and not on the average IQ of those watching.

Unfortunately, neuro-diseases are the least understood of all diseases. I spent years early in my career doing research in that arena and all I really walked away with was frustration. While there is definitely a correlation between contact sports (FB, boxing, etc) and incidence of neuro...

All your points are good ones. None of this should surprise anyone. It would help if the general public including the news media had a rudimentary understanding of science/immunology but that is not where we are. The math is fairly simple. A vaccine that is 95% effective simply means that a...

Completely agree, especially with "creative yet SIMPLE." I think there is ample data that CJH will definitely handle the creative piece. My concern is with the "SIMPLE." In recent years our QBs have stared down single receivers, not thrown to wide open receivers and at times have seemed clueless...

Can't take that bet because you are correct in that CJH was not on my list. Hoping that turns out to be an oversight on my part and that he becomes wildly successful at UT. I remember when he was QB for the Sooners but after that he fell off my radar until he was announced as the replacement for...

Agree but lets go with"nasty" instead of "dirty." Wouldn't want anyone to mistake the Vols for the Ga dawgs.
