'25 Recruiting Forum: Official Tennessee versus Vanderbilt Pre-game/Game Thread

[UTK]

8-4 with a top three paid SEC roster is a failure. Sorry if that offends the sunshine pumpers, but that was the floor this year. And it’s been coaching malpractice how bad this defense has been all year.

I won’t blame Josh for having Banks on staff this year obviously, but if he’s on staff next year that is an atrocious decision.

 

[Pepe_Silvia]

Done with banks. Gonna be disappointing if heupel keeps him around after this season.

 

[RiseToTheTop]

They are done

 

[Christian Lowe]

When we win this game, it better be nothing but celebrations in here. 9-3 after the offseason we had is a hell of a coaching job.

We’re going to get blown out

 

[utvolmaniac]

Good lord this defense.

 

[Orangeburst]

embarassingly bad

 

[JP_UT_O&W]

put 27 in for 22. please

 

[nashvol1]

Taking our soul.

 

[Dooby15]

Good to see 22 is still out there.

 

[StoVol]

7 yards is a successful play for our defense

 

[TheBigOne10]

BITCH DEFENSE. BITCHES!!!

 

[vol4eva]

This defense is stopping nothing

 

[UTK]

Yeah I mean, vandy's roster is 40% seniors 25% juniors. Our roster is 11% seniors and 23% juniors. 49.5% freshman. Highest in the conference

3 star seniors shouldn’t out preforming 4 and 5 star freshmen

 

[ETNVolunteer1]

I’ve got no issue with Heupel but it’s time for Tim Banks to go

 

[volamite86]

Defense is giving up

 

[nashvol1]

Weird season. It looks like we're headed to 1-3 at home in the SEC and 3-1 on the road.

Who did we play on the road?

 

[Weezer]

Defense has given up. No heart.

 

[UTSuave’]

11 rushes for 109 yards HOLY Fuuuuuuuuuu is banks actually at the stadium?…ADJUST

 

[TN-POSSUM]

 

[Weezer]

So ****ing angry.

 

[dmwvol12]

Look at the calls THAT MATTER

They all matter. I just don't think the SEC like Vandy over Tennessee. I try and view it objectively and I don't think the referee's are what are costing this game. There have been questionable calls both ways. Do you not see how bad our defense is? It's putrid and they have no idea how to tackle. I'm sorry I just think it's we have a terrible defense. We are getting physically whipped. Without the turnovers they blow us out. Just how I see it. It's okay to have a difference of opinion.

 

[RiseToTheTop]

Neyland has been a lame environment this yr and you cant blame them


This defense is exhausting man. **** them.

 

[TN-POSSUM]

HIT HIM!!!!!


GOOD GRIEF

 

[GoBigOrange86]

Too easy. Just nothing there.

 

[UTSuave’]

This is Sunseri bad. Just overhaul everyone and bring in all new. This is horrid

Big 10 defense doesn’t cut it in the sec!..
