Written on Grilled by Jon Gruden, UT's Tyler Bray says he needs to improve preparation in NFL:

This happened last week, it's old news, come on KNS keep up

Written on Rawane Ndiaye signs with Tennessee:

"He can score around the rim, but only when the opportunity presents itself" Sounds like he can dunk if there's nobody in his way.

Written on Mike Strange: How is UT doing on Dave Hart's mission of comprehensive success?:

in response to Geofffourmyle:

No, that won't fly because he didn't find or seek Coach Jones from the get-go.

Walt

UT '81

It was like they said on the Sportsource, Jones bailed Hart out by agreeing to take the job. He had just been publicly turned down by two other candidates and if Jones didn't take the job then it was getting ready to turn ugly.

Written on Rawane Ndiaye, Darius Thompson to visit UT:

What's up with all these 2 point scorers that Cuonzo's recruiting? That Landry kid has about the same exact stat line. Cuonzo's doing a good job so far I think, but if he keeps throwing away scholarships like this, he won't be around for long.

Written on Director of recruiting J.R. Sandlin no longer with UT football:

Why do you even need a director of recruiting when you a recruiting coordinator. This sounds like an office assistant type of job.

Written on The addition of Darius Thompson means someone is going or someone isn't coming on Vols' roster:

I didn't know Landry's numbers were that awful, how in the world was he once a 3 star prospect. Those aren't college numbers for any level I don't care how good the team is that you're playing for.

Written on UT running backs coach Robert Gillespie to be paid $300,000:

If Gillespie is truly the best recruiter on the staff, then there's no way he should be the 6th highest paid assistant. I can understand paying the OC and DC the most but other than those two he should be the highest paid.

Written on No. 2 seed Lady Vols open with Oral Roberts; Baylor is No. 1 seed:

Awesome coaching job for Holly and the staff, for a team picked to finish 5th in the SEC. I was really surprised they were a 2 instead of a 3. I'm not sure if we can get by UCLA and former Vol Alyssa Brewer.

Written on John Adams: Vols lost their desperate edge when they needed it most:

I don't think they lost their edge, they played hard, the shots just weren't falling. It was just one of those days.

Written on How far does UT need to go in the SEC tournament to earn a spot in the NCAA tournament?:

I thought they would be ok with 1 win, but with playing Miss St./SC winner, that might actually hurt their resume even if they win, so i'm guessing it's gonna take at least 2 wins to be 100% sure

Written on Vols get needed win at Auburn, 82-75:

This was a nice win, Auburn is always a tricky place to play. When Golden is on, these guys are almost impossible to beat.

Written on Poll: Will the Lady Vols win the SEC women's basketball tournament?:

I voted no because they're so banged up and 3 wins in 3 days is tough even with a totally healthy team.

Written on Lady Vols think offense against Vanderbilt, 83-64:

in response to Theo:

You should be careful what you wish for.
BTW, when is Geno's court date?

He'll probably slime out of those charges. How in the world can he recruit with all that's going on around him with those allegations. Who would want their daughter to even be close to him?

Written on Lady Vols think offense against Vanderbilt, 83-64:

I live 20 minutes out of Knoxville and they showed the entire Maryland/Virginia game up until the last 3 minutes when all of the other ESPN games ended

Written on John Adams: Recent history reveals a new Tennessee rival :

It's kind of like a sibling rivalry, you're always sort of a rival with your little brother.

Written on First road win of season a giant learning experience for Jarnell Stokes, rest of Vols at South Carolina :

in response to TheEffect:

At South Carolina.......the worst team in the SEC with Miss. State. Maybe you should have a ring made to commemorate the "big" victory.

And maybe you should put a ring on a girl, so you'd have a life and wouldn't have time to waste while trolling rival sites.

Written on John Adams: Vols need to show recruits a good ride :

I think Adams has officially lost it now, get some help John

Written on Should the Vols recruit more junior college football players?:

I don't think we need a lot of them, but when the program is down and in need of some depth, then we should go after a few.

Written on USC fires basketball coach Kevin O'Neill:

in response to CantStandCantStandSaban:

I'm sure he'll be able to find a job working as Larry David's stand in.

I heard he already has a job as George Costanza's stunt double

Written on Mike Strange: Some schools do football and basketball right :

UT's not winning much now but they are the only school in the country that's in the top 5 in attendance in Men's and Women's BB and football, so I think they have the best fans in the country.

Written on No worry against Missouri for Lady Vols, 84-39 :

This group is fun to watch and this was a decent team they put a beating on.

Written on Tyler Bray, Justin Hunter, Cordarrelle Patterson, Darrington Sentimore to NFL draft:

Why did Sentimore go, don't you actually have to be good to go pro.

Written on Lady Vols use big second half to beat Georgia :

This team is way ahead of where I thought they'd be right now. They can beat anybody when they all get healthy.

Written on John Adams: Another rivalry headed the wrong way for UT :

Good article Adams, we did beat Florida and Vandy in BB last year, but wins over the rivals have been slim lately in all sports.

Written on UT, Memphis in talks to continue men's basketball series :

Football is the engine that drives the bus. If they don't play us in basketball then we won't play them in football. This series is continuing and there's nothing crybaby Pastner can do about it.

Written on Friday's Memphis-Tennessee game could be the last for a long time:

One game a year won't change recruiting in Memphis. Football is where the big money is and Memphis just threw away a lot of it.

Written on Phillip Fulmer to be inducted into Chick-fil-A Hall of Fame:

How many Chick-fil-a's did he have to eat to achieve this honor.

Written on David Climer: Time to give Derek Dooley some credit:

Worst article ever posted on here. The program isn't in better shape now than when Dooley arrived. Dooley has his best season in his first year, yeah there were less players, but more talent. How can you give Dooley credit for lowering expectations??? Dooley was the worst hire in UT history, the only thing I give him credit for is getting out of the way so Chaney could win the last game.

Written on John Adams: Time for 'serious' changes at Tennessee :

Best article ever by JA, I think announcing the season ticket holders would be a bore for anyone who is not, but the rest of the ideas sound great

Written on John Adams: Fan mail contradicts negative posts :

There was one shocking part to this article. At the top Adams said he has friends.

Written on John Adams: 2013 could be bad for blondes, good for Vols :

The Petrino and Geno stuff were pretty good

Written on John Adams: Elite mismatch for Lady Vols :

This team lost so much, and they're so young. Next year with a loaded class coming in, they should be back near the top.

Written on Tennessee Vols await Bray, Patterson plans:

They're gone, why is this even an article.

Written on Butch Jones says Cordarrelle Patterson 'definitely going to the NFL' :

No suprise, he's a special player, good luck CP

Written on UT men's basketball walk-on Brandon Lopez getting shot as Trae Golden's backup :

I knew McBee's shooting was way off from last year, a torn UCL would explain it

Written on John Adams: The right quarterback could speed up UT turnaround :

If you don't think Bo Jackson or Peyton aren't 2 of the best 5 ever in SEC history then you just don't know football.

Written on Report: Zach Azzanni new Vols receivers coach :

I don't really care if he's not a big name hire, but the only thing i'd want to know about him, can he recruit?

Written on John Adams: An SEC coaching leap isn't for everybody :

Gus Malzahn will put Auburn back near the top in the west. He's been successful at every stop. Jones is a nice hire too, he wasn't my first choice, but like Malzahn he's been a winner wherever he's been.

Written on Butch Jones coaching bio:

Mediocrity here we come

Written on Should Tennessee consider re-hiring Phillip Fulmer?:

Fulmer was great at one time, but there's a reason he hasn't gotten a quality coaching offer since he left UT

Written on David Climer: Tennessee Vols coaching job lacks its previous glamour:

Climer puts too much value on how a team is doing RIGHT NOW. UT is 8th overall in NCAA wins, the 3rd biggest stadium country along with overall facilities that are 2nd to no one, the only thing UT lacks is a solid recruiting base, but that's not a problem when they're winning. UT is still a solid top 15 job.

Written on John Adams: Best of Isabelle Harrison too good for Tar Heels :

I had no idea Harrison was this good, she was a beast today, future looks bright for the Lady Vols.

Written on Tennessee's coach search turns to Oklahoma State's Mike Gundy :

in response to VOLSnTITANS:

I'm a man...I'm 40.

That was hilarious, we need to get this guy even if he doesn't win he'll have entertaining press conferences.

Written on Jay Greeson: Is Gruden the right solution for the Vols?:

The most laughable part of this article was where he called Kiffen a "home run hire". How can you say that about a guy who won 5 games in 2 years in the NFL and had never been a college HC before??? The real home run hire that year would have been Brian Kelly buy Hamilton messed that up big time.

Written on John Adams: Building depth on offensive and defensive lines will be crucial for next UT coach :

in response to rb4346:

Agree. With Gruden we would have good recruting but can he still coach at the college level. With Petrino we will have good recruits and great coaching. The man knows how to coach and win IMO!

Petrino is an awesome coach, but I gotta wonder how well he'll be able to recruit after the mess at Arkansas.

Written on John Adams: No shame for UT in a big-name rejection :

in response to civilianvol_formerly_marinevol:

If Stoops thinks he's not appreciated at Oklahoma, he should talk to Phillip Fulmer about how much the University of Tennessee appreciates a successful coach.

If Stoops had 2 losing seasons in 4 years when he was projected to be in the top 10 both seasons, he'd be fired there too.

Written on Brendan Quinn: Kentucky's struggling offense vs. UT's struggling defense a matchup to watch :

in response to LibertyVol:

Better be the lineman carrying off CJC. Go Vols.

There's not enough of them.

Written on Evan Woodbery: Tennessee has matchup edge, but coaching distraction gives edge to Kentucky :

Don't agree with this at all, if you think KY will win because TN will be flat, then wouldn't the intangibles go to KY? Don't see how you can pick UT in every category but one and then pick KY to win.

Written on 5 Big Things: Vols vs. Kentucky :

in response to GlennFordsFoible:

(This comment was removed by the site staff.)

Agree with most of what you said, i'm actually very glad that Dooley won't be in the stadium on our sideline, the guy's just a loser and makes everybody around him worse, good riddance!
