I hate to say it because I like Caldwell and genuinely was hoping her style would translate into a successful program, but it seems like last year's UConn upset was the peak and it's only going down from there. Best to cut ties and move on after this season, IMO.

Nobody in baseball that I know of, but I'm just talking general principle in all sports. But yeah, Chase Burns can pound sand.

I'll amend my comment to say that if someone was forced to leave or wasn't going to get playing time, I can see UT fans wishing them well in their future endeavors. However, while that is one thing, rooting for someone who was or was going to be a starter here after they left us high and dry...

This X1,000. I don't want them to get hurt, but I don't want them to succeed on any level either. You're either a Vol or you're not.

Y'all covered it well and I've got nothing to add other than to say the only small consolation, in a weird way, is that it took more than one of these atrocities to actually cost us a spot in the playoff.

Right? I sincerely question the fan 'credentials' of any so-called 'fan' who thinks otherwise, honestly.

Result was super encouraging and exactly what I hoped Barnes and the team could do to respond to the slump. Still unnerved by what I saw the last halves of Kansas, Syracuse, and Illinois, but definitely have much more hope that things can be turned around and we can have a solid season! The...

The Houston win is looking more and more like a fluke. Obviously wouldn't have happened without talent, but that talent just hasn't meshed into any sort of consistency yet. Hoping that happens at some point - if that's tonight, I would love to be wrong!

I always look forward to the games, but I'm not expecting a win. Sadly, we just aren't very good.

This, and also, there have always been bowls with zero national championship implications, except in the past it was all but one or two. So the reason to play in them is the same - a chance to practice, develop players, get rewarded for a non-losing season, and test yourself against someone in...

The way I will choose to mentally cope with the loss to Vanderbilt today (if that happens, and it is seeming increasingly likely) is it means any one of the heartbreaking plays that lost the previous 3 games wouldn't have made a difference in our playoff chances. It also means we didn't have the...

Do we have a shot at being good this year? It seemed like it preseason because of the incoming talent and trajectory from last year, but it's been underwhelming so far. Would love to see a return to the glory days!

This comparison has occurred to me as well. However, if it played out exactly like that it would mean we would have a 2nd natty, which wouldn't be bad, especially as difficult as it is and how much luck you have to have to win a baseball natty in the first place. Tony V could have easily coached...

How many SEC titles have we won since Peyton's (and the NC run the year after)?

I agree completely with this. Even during the game and as frustrating as it was afterwards, I had zero issues with the coaching decisions. I would have done the same thing. If any of us had been told we would have a chance to win it with a 40-year field goal, we would have taken that in a...
