Knox News Trolling the Vol fanbase

[Gandalf]

Predicting how the Tennessee Vols will do game by game in 2018

Besides thinking that Trey Smith is basically going to be playing by himself...6-6 overall, including this gem:

Alabama 52, Tennessee 0
Vols drive 75 yards on first possession but fail to score after a false-start penalty negates Smith’s 1-yard touchdown run. Following UT’s missed field goal, Alabama scores 52 consecutive points.

Alabama gives game ball to former UT coach Butch Jones, who relentlessly serves coffee to Alabama press-box coaches throughout the game.

Not funny sarcasm???

I just watched a few minutes of that game - last three or four before end of half. JG was making some good passes to Calloway. The booth was complimentary. Then Jeremy sent in the troops and sacked JG and his head, er...hat came off. JG took it like a man. He is a tough kid. I sure hope the OL can buy him three or four seconds in future games.

What a POS article/writer. Adams also predicts both Guarantano and Chryst getting injured in the Auburn game. I'm assuming this is supposed to be some type of satire, but I don't know how you can continue to employ someone who only produces click bait/hot take articles. What happened to professional journalism?

 

[Vol Kilmer]

Adams is the click bait master, but I honestly believe this 6-6 record is where we will end up.

And if any QB gets hurt it will likely be against Auburn. That DL is fo real.

 

[FLVOL_79]

That score probably aint too far from the future truth.

 

[KoachKrab127]

Would that scenario really surprise anyone? After all we've seen over the past decade? Would anything surprise you?

Professional Journalism died when twitter became a thing. People just spewed bs and some of it got alot of attention so then those same guys or girls figured it would work in big time news outlets if it was working on twitter. He just predicts this because he knows
It will get a rise out of all of us. Don’t let it bother you though, we will make
Them all believers before this season is over. If our VOL kids didn’t know before, they knew after schiano Sunday that vol nation has their back. That kind of motivation does a lot for a team, and it’s not something you see at many schools. Fan bases say they care, but not many are as passionate as we are!

This is the one of the dumbest things I've ever read.

How anyone gets paid to write this crap in a Knoxville newspaper is beyond me.

Adams is the master baiter of clicks...

 

[Souce]

Relentessly

 

[Pruitt Will Do It]

John Adams is a has been sack of shytt that needs to go ahead and retire

 

[BigOrangeMojo]

Must suck to be JA. Look at all the newspaper guys from Memphis and Chatt that have moved on to bigger and better things while JA remains stuck in neutral. Even that hack Wolken got a national deal..

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Adams writes good stuff about the Vols. VN: "man that Adams knows what he is talking about,". He writes negative things about the Vols, VN: "Adams is trash."

On a more serious note, unfortunately I could see Bama beating us that badly. They could have easily done that the past 2 years. I dont think it will be 52-0, but it wont surprise me if thats the final score. Hey at least he has us beating Vandy and UK.

I wonder what John Adams will say when Tennessee is 8-4 and playing in the Gator Bowl,Belk Bowl,Music City Bowl or Liberty Bowl?

 

[RDU VOL#14]

John Adams is such a clown. The premises of his articles are complete garbage.

 

[Orange defense]

Resign Adams.

 

[JazzMaster001]

Obviously a troll/clickbait piece. The fact that that was allowed to be posted tells you all you need to know about the KNS.

 

[SKBubba]

That guy is an embarrassment. Meanwhile, I saw Mike Strange's byline on a Halls Shopper News blog post the other day. Is he no longer part of KNS sports coverage?

Anyway that paper is a dumpster fire. At one point they had more reporters covering UT football than they had covering local city and county government and community affairs. Maybe they still do. Whatever pays the bills, I guess.

 

[musolfmj]

OK, burn me. Columnists get to have a little fun in their twilight years because they performed well in their early careers. I got some nice chuckles out of it. That Trey Smith jump pass for a touchdown was a dandy.

Lighten up.

Google the meaning of tongue in cheek.

 

[MadWorld]

Masterfully done. Even the cl on clicks could be construed as a "d" with the proper amount of eye squint.

Well done..

 

[wtmvol]

I think that all sounded funnier in John’s head. It’s like he thinks he’s the sports version of Dave Barry, but he’s really not that good at it.

Fake news. Adams has never written good stuff about the Vols.

Just don't read Knox News or post their crap, problem solved.

Help me understand how UT can take the opening two drives down the field and not be able to do it the rest of the game, not to mention stoping Alabama on their first two drives? I get it, a lack of depth is usually what happens to a team after the first quarter but UT doesn't have a lack of depth. If UT gets beat 52-0 against Alabama, they won't come close to winning six games. It's a silly click bait article.
