    Vols Achilles Heel

    I agree...I don't think the tackling was terrible...I think it was blocking! The Oline was on their heels the entire night and was thrown by the speed from their D and for whatever reason Dobbs was not doing Dobbs...he is not a passer. I love that they are trying to make him more dimensional but...

    rankings vs respect

    Dropping to 17th is directly related to total respect for Tennessee IMO! I don't think we are coached well enough to be a top 10 team at this point...even though the talent says so. I think we are luck to be 17 after a terrible performance early in the match. The positive is that winners find a...

    Will Butch's Downfall be the same as dooleys?

    Actually, I am OK with him learning nothing from Derek Dooley!

    Greatest Vol you ever saw play or met.

    Peyton was a couple of years ahead of me in school. I registered for an upper level class accidentally with out the pre-reqs. On the first day I sat down and he was sitting in the desk beside me. I freaked and then quickly realized that I was not supposed to be in the class but I showed up every...

    Outback Bowl Time Slot is not Favorable

    Early games do have the benefit of being mentioned and/or having clips shown during halftime reports for the rest of the days games. Its an attractive enough bowl (Jan 1!) and the exposure will be good. Beggars can't be choosers at this point, IMO.

    Would you fire butch and staff if they lose to Florida in 2016?

    We will have 7 or 8 games to play prior to NEXT year's Florida game. Let's see how we do in those first.

    Athlon picks Tennessee upset over Alabama

    Hype is our kryptonite! Lets hope the predictions of outrageous upsets stay at a minimum!

    Still a year away

    If we stay healthy, particularly at QB, then anything less than 8 wins is just mediocre coaching and a concern for how we compete in the future.

    Butch tells Volnation "Shut-up and strap-in"

    Iowa Hawkeyes vs Tennessee Volunteers Odds - Friday January 2 2015 | Odds Shark Just saying! But regardless of what the final spread was....I mean, 3 points! It was 42-7 at the half. And whatever Vegas said aside...most of the sports analysts were leaning Iowa. It was at the very least supposed...

    Butch tells Volnation "Shut-up and strap-in"

    What CBJ has proven is that he is charismatic and convincing. Kids believe him and buy into his vision. He recruits masterfully...not only does he load the class with star talent but he fills needs. Anyone who says that he has only proven that he is a good recruiter is missing how incredibly...

    Butch's Reasoning

    OP nailed it, IMO. Maybe I am naive or overly optimistic and certainly I don't know enough about football to comment on who the best hire for our program would be (I am betting 90% of the haters on this site don't either)...but I do know that I like Butch Jones. And I do know that he is working...
