Message from Heuple at Basketball game

[lilesrt]

I am 100% behind this guy. It’s taken me a few days to adjust to the hire, but I’m in fellas. Let’s do this. Go Vols.

He said the haters on VN could kiss his ***

Love this s”””

Chasing a squirrel here, but I'm a huge fan of Grant and Sherman. Being a literal "Son of the South", this has caused me no small share of grief over the years. That being said, my family has roots in the southern Appalachians, and that area was more Union-leaning than Confederate, so maybe it's just in my DNA.

I've read a number of books about the history, experiences, strategy, and unique relationship between Grant and Sherman. Each one brilliant in their own way, and also damaged in their own unique way. But as a pair, they were among the best wartime commanders this nation has ever seen. Right up there with Ike and George, IMO.

Just thought I'd share that useless tidbit.

Go Vols.

General Lee and Stonewall were a pretty good duo as well.

I like it, but he almost needs a hype man.

Can still remember Mears whipping out the unicycle dude during pregame warmups.

I'm behind Coach but ehh his speeches seem forced and lacking emotion and energy to me.

Coach needs to bring in the other Rock and have him do a motivation speech to the athletes and maybe he can teach Coach how to bring it!

 

[Vol 85]

I really liked his comment about coming together and having positive energy in all parts of the state, I believe that could help us with in state kids and recruiting.

Awesome post!!!!.

He is from South Dakota. Those folks don't have alot of words but let their work speak for them.

Believe the Heup!

I don't care if he yells about Rommel or eye discipline or uses "aight" every other word as long as he wins ball games. He's not paid to be a cheerleader; he is a football coach. He was simply doing what the university asked him to do tonight!

 

[Volnbeers]

I’ve completely come around on him. Can’t deny the offense he brings. I’ll give him a chance.
But hooooo he NEEDS to get a good DC.

 

[Jravol78]

I like it but I’ll believe it when I see it . I think I can speak for most when I say that I’m skeptical of talk and looking to see results in the form of W’s.

All in all was a good effort on the part of CJH & ADDW but the references to “individuals “ and “best staff” did cause my BVSPTSD to flare up

I agree. I hate starting all over again, and again, and again; so willing to give him three yrs regardles of our record. Complaining on social media is just going to hurt our cause w the media, recruiting, and add undo pressure on Coach H. He may be over his head but again, hoping for the best.

Vitale is a total fool. Thankful for the mute button.

My wife said, “who is he?” Me, “Dickie V”. Wife, “He sure is irritating, I wish he would be quiet.” I used the mute button!

 

[Ratvol]

He said he can’t wait to beat the other team and listen to rocky top all night long. Sounds like Kiffin but he’s already trying to bring the gas.

I had beans for supper. I can bring the gas.

Go VOLS

Should be right at home in East TN. Maryville has a statue to Sherman.

Another squirrel. When I retire in a few years, we are returning to the Holy Land (East Tennessee). We want to be close to the Smokies. Property values in Wears Valley and Townsend are unreal, so we are slowly working our way south, down towards Tellico Plains. We vacation in the mountains every May. This year, we have two weeks, so we will start scouting in earnest for an acre or few we can put a 2-BR cabin on and watch the sun set over the hills.

Maryville would be nice, as would the Seymour area. But it's almost impossible to find a reasonable measure of privacy, with a reasonable view, at a reasonable price. Should have done this years ago. Now, we're just looking for a piece of land that says "this is it."

Much like with the Vols, hope springs eternal. It's out there. We just have to find it.

He said something about the parking lot at the Waffle House but they cut his mic before he finished.

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

Does anybody have the clip (or know where to find it) of Heuple's address to the fans at TBA during tonights game against Kansas? The tv broadcast was too busy shoving Vital's nauseating voice in our ears to hear what he might have said.

 

[CA_Vol]

Next he will be at a LV ball game with his shirt off.

Maybe the lady Vols will join him?

we live across the hill from Tellico Plains in Etowah. Great land prices compared to the Maryville area.
Beautiful area.

Go VOLS

F it I’m with him. Let’s ride High Pull!

Grant had 3 times the scholarship offers to give out and 3 times the Mcdonald sacks to hand out

 

[cobbwebb0710]

I’m sure whatever he said will have y’all revising your predicted win total for next year up by an average of about 1.3 wins

Depends. If in his next statement he says “they’re workin’ like heck”, I’ll probably up that average to 2.1
GBO!!

Promised the team would be champions of life.

It was good to see him there and speak somewhat ad lib instead of getting walked out on court and formally introduced. He did something the last 5 coaches didn’t do, so he deserves credit for effort.
