    Prediction Machine has Vols ranked between 3-5

    They'll tell you what you want to hear so that you'll tune in next time for more of the same. I'm sure the guys in Gainesville are talking about how improved UF will be next year.

    DC Candidate List: Help Keep A Running Post

    Lovie Smith? There is no way Smith goes from NFL head coach to defensive coordinator at a college program. Some people need to take the orange shades off.

    Good chance Willie Martinez

    We are at a tipping point, fellas. If we screw the pooch next season, then it will be hard to continue sell the program as "on the rise" again. But, if we kill it next season, then we can sell the program as having "arrived and here to stay." Obviously huge differences recruiting and...

    Shoop confirmed on campus

    Anyone aware of why Shoop turned down LSU? Seems like a big step up from PSU. Especially considering the loads of defensive talent that pass through there each year.

    Jancek gone? (rumor)

    The Nike royalties are new. But even so, we don't know how that money gets distributed. It's easy to sit back and yell at Hart to dump all of it on butch's head, but it's never that easy. Even with Adidas money and the TV contracts, we were still in the red for several years. Personally, I think...

    Jancek gone? (rumor)

    Nick Saban earned his 7M per year. I would rather we do the same. Find a good candidate who doesn't demand 1M+ a year. But let him earn it. As you say, we should be willing to pay that money, but just let the coach earn it first.

    Jancek gone? (rumor)

    You are looking at this too simply. That 100M goes to much much more than just football. Athletic departments are much like corporations. They have high overhead costs. Just think about everything that has to get funded. 1M for a coordinator is 1/100 of that budget. Doesn't that seem like a lot...

    Jancek gone? (rumor)

    The decision to shell out a million on a coordinator is one that is made with high level donors. We could easily get a coordinator for much less (as we are all aware). Ticket prices pay for our great facilities and stadiums (among many other things).

    Jancek gone? (rumor)

    Stop the "Tennessee needs to pay out" crap. That money has to come from somewhere. I'm sure it's not coming from you all. It's easy to blame Dave hart, but unless you're the one donating the millions, realize he's doing his best. If y'all want top not coaches, go ahead and sell your house and...

    Jancek gone? (rumor)

    Jancek has done solid work this season. I would be more than happy to keep him on board. It seems like he has learned a lot about how to be a good coordinator this season. We saw some good adjustments last night. Same goes for DeBord. I always think we blame our coaches disproportionately...

    SECCG #2 Bama vs #18 Florida (CBS)

    Screw Brad Paisley. I wanna punch him in the face every time I hear that ridiculous song.

    The Official Tennessee @ Missouri Game Thread, 7:15 pm ET, ESPN2

    Dobbs won't rush effectively if he doesn't pass effectively. Mizzou will stack the box and shut down the run game if Dobbs doesn't make them respect the pass. So, essentially, Dobbs need to be a good quarterback to win. Surprise, surprise.

    Will Jalen Hurd make an All SEC Team?

    If Hurd played for Bama, he'd be the Heisman candidate right now. I'd say he and Henry are on the same level. Just look at how all the bama backs have fared in the NFL. They are all overhyped. They run behind a massive and skilled O-line. So, the end up looking like stars. But, in reality...

    Barnett Tired of Being Held

    Just tell me why they felt the need to overlay that crappy music.
