I saw a lot of opinions regarding Jennings and his instagram. A lot of posters talking about how he should never have been dismissed by an interim, including Mr. Rucker and others.

Truth is, it usually takes a couple of days for the real story to come out. Fact is, Mr. Jennings has always been a loose cannon and a drag to team attitude and focus. In other words, he was a bad seed. Currie made the right decision.

This is straight from the Jimmy Hyams report bashing and trashing Jennings! I don’t believe half of what was said in his report!

As a fan I'll always appreciate that catch against Georgia and the dog he had in him while on the field.


With that said, if some of these reports are true then it's for the best he got kicked off. You can't have somebody with that attitude and showing up the staff. Let's hope for his sake he uses this as a life learning experience and learns from it.

Too bad Sherion Jones left. On the other hand that might have bought another year for Butch. Things tend to work themselves out.

The video alone is enough for me to know he needed to go.

Hmm that's interesting about him being a drag to team attitude. I have often heard that Jennings was popular with teammates. The bigger issue though isn't whether it was appropriate to kick him off or not, but whether his characterization of the UT coaching staff is accurate. My sense is that there is truth to what Jennings voiced so inappropriately. The new coaching staff can't be here soon enough for my liking.

So apparently all you gotta do to create an inflammatory article these days is write up your thing then say "a source said".

That's really all it takes.

Not saying I believe it isnt true, but ******, Jennings manned up and said his peace - said what all Vol fan were thinking, albeit in a very offhand way. Got dismissed for it the day before turkey day no less. If you don't got the brass to be named as a source or to name your source, your article looks like nothing more than either a) a click bait article or b) a hit piece to make UT look better about their already struggling public image. Either way, it's probably both.

Until someone with some brass comes forward and confirms it as true, I'll not care what some glorified sports blogger says "his source" says. Yall can call him a thug all you want, but that dude showed more passion than most everyone on our roster and his dismissal came at a very strange time.

If yall wanna take the word of some 2012 graduate from Mizzou, that's up to yall. I prefer to remain indifferent about it since the timing of Jennings dismissal was ... how should we say ... ill-timed?

It really doesn’t matter how true Jenning’s insta-rant was. You just can’t take to social media in a profanity laced tirade with those truths in an effort to embarrass your coaches and university.

The real stupidity of Jennings is how bad he is hurting his own draft stock. He has company with Baker Mayfield. Maturity matters, and NFL scouts take notice.

You mean you prefer to let your beliefs fit your agenda even though there is more than one source updating his issues from the past.

If you’re waiting for Currie to drag him through the mud publicly with his past issues then your beliefs will stay the same.
