I don't understand the hate for @briancrice or Erik...its the only radio/podcast I can stand listening to about anything related to Tennessee Football. Keep up the good work fellas as well as Joel!
Hasn’t like half your station been employed by UT/Vol Network in some fashion?It's part of the business, doesn't bother me in the least. If someone takes the time to say they hate me, that means they're listening enough to have an opinion. If the people that hated us called the show, then we could really have some fun.
The whole "state-run" and "mouthpiece" deal cracks me up. I get a few texts a week from people over there that didn't like what we said. Nobody tells me what to say and they sure aren't pulling anyone's credentials over things they don't like. Before I was on the radio, I was associated with the media relations program for 15 years between being a student, grad student, contributor and full time employee and in all those years I saw them pull exactly one credential and that was from a reporter that published an outright lie more than once and caused a scene at the complex. And that was at least 10 years ago.
People in the media say a lot of stuff the coaches and administration don't like. All part of the business. Not one reporter that sets foot on campus has a worry about having a credential pulled. Any school that tried that would get a call from the SEC office in about .3 seconds.
I'm honestly disappointed that I only got nine votes in this poll.

Did I get everyone's attention? Good! My newest grandson was born Sunday afternoon. He is a healthy 10lbs 5oz bouncing baby middle linebacker. Momma and daddy are all good, but Pa, is out of this world excited!!

State run mouth piece? You tear down UT football at every opportunity. I don't call that being objective and JS does the same. Also I have to question a grown man who spends money on jersey's that he has never worn or played in. I concern myself with my high school jersey and my college jersey. I don't live vicariously through others. I had my success but latching on to other jersey's show's me you have no concept of being an athlete and for that as well as the tennis player commenting on football I discredit. I don't want sunshine pumpers but I want a knowledgeable account of the info coming out of camp. You and Joel are giving opinions and opinions only and don't have the meat Erik does.
Collect your jersey's because you are a fan that never played a down of football in high school or college and your living off others. The word leech comes to mind. While I know you spend good money your still living off the success of others. Make your own. Oh wait, you're a dweeb that lives their lives through others. You and Joel deserve each other. To play at a D1 or2 D 2 level for 4 years you have no comprehension. Spout your drivel and tear down all the athletes that you couldn't even hold their jocks. You guys haven't a clue as what it takes to be an athlete at this level. Deal with that. Last post because I'm done.

I don’t watch it anymore, but I know I’ve seen Erik also do segments on the coaches show in the past.Only three of us. John Wilkerson is the football/basketball scoreboard host and calls Tennessee Baseball. I broadcast the softball games. Vince, who fills in on shows and does all of our web content, calls the home baseball games with John.
I can't speak for anyone else, but when I went to work for the station, my bosses at the Vol Network told me I didn't need to worry about making them mad with what I said, I just needed to be honest and truthful. That's the only standard I have. Some people like it, Mr. UTNoFear apparently doesn't.
Is there something wrong, bro? Did you get tossed from your kid’s little league game recently and the pain from that embarrassment is still stinging a little?State run mouth piece?
