2009 Deja Vu?

He did perform miracles with that horrible OL

Starting the year, as Rick Nuehesial had said, all 5 of Tennessee's lineman will play on Sundays. What 4 actually did. The center would have but he got kicked off for threatening to whip Orgeron's a**. Fact. He did wonders?? LOL!

I hope so.

We have a skilled, energetic coordinator with multiple championships under his belt.

The roster is decimated in several areas (especially OL).

The QB play last year was all time bad.

The assistant coaching and recruiting prowess have been dramatically upgraded.

Maybe CJP can lead us to where this program was headed when CLK was hired.

Kiffin was fired from Oakland. He was wanted by no one. But Tennessee. He would have had the NCAA drop the hammer on Tennessee had he not left. He had 6 draft picks left him including 2 first rounders. Should have been more had he not screwed them up. And he went 7-6.

The first game had 10K unsold tickets for the first time in over 20 years. His entire recruiting class was horrible and he ran off many future NFL players.

Yea, he did great.

This is a total rebuild job in the trenches.. This won't be easy or fun

Yup. Both lines are woefully lacking from an SEC-quality perspective.
