Finebaum show still dominated with Tennessee football ! Bama only other school could garner this much talk. We will be back to top 10 sooner than you think. CJH is Lane Kiffin 2.0 less the drama he brings. His offensive prowess at a school like ours, with our facilities,fan base, money & tradition he will get it done !!!!

Its going to happen!!! Enough of the negative talk ! Get on the Josh Train!
I’m on board MPW!!

On a tangent here, what made you select your user name? My first game @ UT was when I transferred to UT in 92 and saw us near the Gators. What a game! And I recall (think screen pass) Shuler to Phillips for six! I can still envision that play during the monsoon @ Neyland.

My apologies for getting off topic but I met Mose in 2001 or 2002 and enjoyed our conversation about that game.

Don't you mean the "Heup" Train?

There's depressing, and then there are folks on here trying to pump themselves up one more time to believe in the latest dud hire, with all the same arguments that were trotted out on here for the last four:

"We don't need four- and five-stars because our coaches will coach them up."

"Look at how dominant his defense/offense was at his last stop. We'll be unstoppable on that side of the ball."

"With this guy's track record (insert here the appropriate irrelevant experience, such as his success as a coordinator when he is now going to be a HC, or his sometime success as a HC in the MAC, or his ancestry, or his middling success as a HC in the AAC), he's going to come in here and put the SEC on notice!"

"This guy will get it done. I have no clue why, I just need to deny reality to myself so I'm going to believe in another pipe dream coach because that's what our worthless execrable administration and boosters just gave us."

A good bit of the conversation on Finebaum is negative, so I'm not sure that is so good or telling.

What will make me most happy is when the show is dominated by people talking about our great win last week.

Here is Finebaum’s latest feeling about Tennessee: (Michael Britton Article)
I’m usually not one to be overly pessimistic because I’ve seen a lot, as you have. I don’t have a good feeling about this program right now. I think Josh Heupel is indicative of that. If it wins 8 or 9 games in the next 2 or 3 years, that would be considered fantastic. But I think the program has to lower its sight
“It’s no longer relevant. Tennessee is no longer an important program in the SEC. It has fallen that far behind, and I say that as a Tennessee graduate and as someone who remembers Tennessee being on a similar plateau as Alabama. It wasn’t that long ago, but it seems like forever.

Another Vols are a Sleeping Giant and it’s the fan’s fault thread.

I’m in.

How great can JH make the Vols?

All Vol fans will be happy when he exceeds my expectations.

I like the enthusiasm! I’m getting a more excited and hopeful after looking into Heupel’s history.

We have no idea whatsoever how hard the useless NCAA is going to hammer us or how many years it's going to take us just to get the sanctions over and done with.

It's probably going to be at least 2 years and maybe 3 years or longer just to get all the sanctions over and done with.

The good thing is that by the time our sanctions are over with our new HC will have recruited some good players that are picked to run his O and D exactly like he wants them run.

Also by that time he'll have many players that really understand exactly what he wants them to do and why.

That will give us a good foundation to build on and some upperclassmen that know everything and can help coach up the new kids coming in.

That will help the new recruits and those that transfer in to learn everything much faster and be ale to help keep things going right as we continue to build our depth.

Our O will score and put more pressure on the other team and more pressure always causes more mistakes that we can take advantage of.

This isn't going to be a fast rebuild with so many good players running away and all the sanctions we're going to have to fight through but by the time we're through the sanctions our O should be exciting and putting points on the board and that will help draw in much better recruits on both sides of the ball so we should get much better faster after the sanctions are done with and all our schollies are back to full strength.

There's actually lots to get excited about with our new HC and the schemes he wants to run but be careful NOT to overexpect for the first 2 or 3 years as we fight through the useless NCAA sanctions as we work to rebuild.

I like lots of what I've read, heard and learned about our new HC so I'll try my best to remain patient, again, and let him and his coaching staff do their work to rebuild us the right ways back into one of the top Teams in the SEC and the country.

Get this train back on the tracks and rolling up the mountain back to the top 10 where we all know is where we belong!

VFL...GBO!!!
