They had depth on the DL and at safety. There are some talent holes to be sure. But that was true of the O as well and they just finished the season averaging 39 ppg.No. It’s all coaching. Don’t start talking about depth on this board. Many think that there were 5 stars sitting on the bench this season.
Seriously defense has been awful all year worst 3rd Dow defense I’ve ever seen he’s a slightly better Sal Sunseri. Purdue didn’t even have their best receiver today
Hahahahahaha
We don’t even know if it’s Heupel yet so let’s not freak out
They probably all defended Dooley, Butch, and Pruitt too. I wish I could be blind and be happy about the hire. Keep blabbing about how great his offenses are but don’t want to mention how his teams regressed and his defense gave up almost 500 yards per game
The fans defending this hire are exactly why our athletic department keeps doing it. Our Athletic department keeps feeding us the same crap repeatedly and our fans keep buying it.
Heupel will not close the gap. I expect him to be a huge failure based off his trend at UCF and his recruiting abilities at UCF. Don’t even get me started on his defense giving up 500YPG. Of course you approve of the hire.
People are so impatient. Everybody, EVERYBODY, was worried about this defense heading in to the season. We do not have SEC caliber LBs and BY is the only real threat off the edge at this point. Hard to put out a good product in YEAR 1 when you can’t affect the QB. He did a fine job all things considered. Let’s see what he does in year 2.Seriously defense has been awful all year worst 3rd Dow defense I’ve ever seen he’s a slightly better Sal Sunseri. Purdue didn’t even have their best receiver today
Id like to see Banks have time to recruit his own players. The portal devastated TN in 2021. This is going to be extremely difficult because Banks was late on the 2022 class at UT. This fan base is not going to give a coordinator 3 years to turn the ship around and shouldn’t. He’s got to show improvement on the field in 2022.

Show improvement with what? Someone elses players? He did that this year with a defense that was missing To'o To'o, Crouch, Bailey, Williams, Bennett, Easing, D.Johnson, French, Lawerence, Thompson and Buchanan, Emerson and Middleton. Even with 4 or 5 of those guys we would've been better. Give him a chance robget his guys in there and see what happens.
Byron Young
Jeremy Banks
Theo Jackson
Alontae Taylor
They were the only guys that had ability on our D
Omari and Thomas could be good.Add Thomas, Butler and Baron to the list for talent. I do think all of these guys busted their ass every game. Tennessee showed up every game this yr IMO and a lot of teams can't say that. For that I respect every one of them.
