Why? It provides no info. It’s just an opportunity for 5 or 6 fans to hear themselves on the radio each week.

It creates a connection with the fans more than you might imagine. It's a way for fans to interact and see coaches in person, in town.

They are cutting out all this fan interaction. No spring game, no Vol Calls, 10% "talent fee", no coach's show, donate to NIL. . . They are cutting off all the fat and thrashing the fans' experience outside of game day. They're turning it into nothing more than a $ machine and sacrificing the soul of the program (fan connection/interaction)

Pretty well sums it up in my opinion. Hope they enjoy their money, but that program will get none of it from me.

Will always be a Vol fan, but not a fan of making it all about the money.

My contributions and attendance will be with the program of the coach who is a man of the people - Tony. The one who built the best program in college baseball from the bottom up with only a cracker box ball park.

Well put, Enki!

This is the kind of rant that needs to be on VOL calls!

We had a dog get hit about 8-9 years ago. The smell permeated the whole house for weeks after.

Also, tomatoe juice getting rid of the smell is a myth...much like well-mannered clean smelling yeti.

I sadly speak from experience. The only thing we've found that works, make a paste of baking soda, Dawn dish soap, and hydrogen peroxide, consistency needs to be like a loose paste. Apply liberally to dog, do NOT get dog wet first. Apply the paste, repeat as needed, and rinse. It absorbs the oils form the spray, If you try and wash with water first....that just spreads the skunk spray and it absorbs into skin pores. Good luck

Take your $9,000,000/yr a$$ to Calhoun's on the River once a week during the season and answer some questions. Someone needs kicked in the junk.

One could assume this has something to do with how they expect the season to play out and we just don’t know it yet…..as a fan this is how I’d take it….it’s been going on for 35 years….why now?🥴

It’s the principle buddy….this is the same AD and coaching staff that are ok with taking away the fan experience but then ask for donations and NIL money contributions…oh yea and go up yearly on ticket prices…it runs deeper than just that. I’m with @Enki_Amenra on this one take your ass to Calhouns

Maybe I’m misunderstanding, but are you saying coach thinks the season is going to be so bad he can’t stomach the thought of having to do a call in show and answer to fans?
