I saw my first Tennessee game in 1945 and I have seen good times and bad times. My father, brother, and son lettered at Tennessee and one brother lettered at Cal Berkley. This team is the first team in 4-5 years which has shown any improvement and none have recruited at the level of Coach Jones. While many of the posters here think success can be obtained with out hard work, those of us who are mature enough to have retired realize that the key to success is dedication to the cause, experience in the field of operation and skilled employees who have learned the trade. the most compelling ingredients are confidence and a positive attitude. Rebuilding is difficult and takes time. Being critical of the organization leads to destruction and failure. It is difficult foe me that intelligent people can not realize the task at hand and the work it takes to succeed. Criticism at this point in the programs development show lack of knowledge and an immature perspective on live. Quitters seldom accomplish any of their goals. Pleas support our football coaches, players and our University. Sometimes expressing support for what we love requires more discipline than some of our posters seem to possess. With understanding and patience, we will obtain success during the next two years. Get on the train and enjoy the ridgeback to the top.
