(This comment was removed by the site staff.)

And where is Bama in the NCAA bracket. I failed to see their seeding.

Written on Evan's Eleven: 5-star RB Jalen Hurd's commitment to Tennessee is biggest catch of Butch Jones' tenure:

And the commitment train is picking up steam. Throw another shovel of coal in the boiler. Good news for Vol nation. Go CBJ and staff, keep it going and Go Big Orange.

Written on Mike Strange: Win over Missouri brings Vols all the way back:

Tennessee will be lucky to make the NIT field

Just Saying

Written on Skylar McBee goes from humble start to Senior Day:

in response to SevenT:

I wonder if Sonny Bono aky Skeeter Mcbee will get a haircut and shave that scraggly stash prior to Senior Day.

Just Saying

Do they even have a senior day at Kentucky.

Written on Ike Brown named assistant strength coach:

If only he had coached at Cincinnati sometime to put on his resume.

Written on Vols land a big one, 64-58, against Florida :

in response to 8inarow:

As I posted yesterday, Vols to line twice as many times as UF. However, home time-clock seemed to work this time (may not have if game was closer)

UF stayed with ut even with 2-key players out, and losing a 3rd in the game to an injury.

So, here is how it will play out.

Gators go deep in NCAA, vols lose early in NIT.

Happens ever year.

Happens every year.
Your lizards lose to Tennessee!

Took you a while to slither out of the swamp. Looked like Vols found that quarter sized hole on the top of your Gator head again.

in response to johnlg00:

WAY too much to be worrying about right now. I really don't think either Jarnell or Jordan is ready for the NBA right now, but if they get favorable evaluations from pro player personnel, I couldn't blame them for going.

Let's hope they don't get their evaluation from the
same person that Hopson got his.

Written on Vols land a big one, 64-58, against Florida :

Who is going to take Mcbee's spot next year? Before him it was Bradshaw. True Tennessee guys that love the Big Orange and lay it all out on the floor for TENNESSEE.

Little Eddie Muenster goes down to Tennessee again!
Great Win! Go Big Orange!

Written on Former Vols post strong results at NFL Combine:

in response to 8inarow:

Slash hit 80% of the trash cans with a beer bottle. Much improved over last year.

He could probably hit you in the head with 8 beer bottles. Maybe it would improve your intelligence.

Written on Jay Graham leaving Vols for Florida State:

in response to oldster:

When is UT going to get some good news in football? I do not recall any since Fulmer was fired.

And how have things worked out since Hamilton drove that in the ditch!

Written on Fourth overtime Golden for Vols, 93-85:

Great win when we needed it. If McRae was not a scorer I would've had him on the bench,as he had two costly turnovers consecutively at the end of regulation. McBee played good defense on Turner even though he did score 38. Not many uncontested shots for Turner. Good switch off to Richardson to defend at end of game McBee finally seems to be finding his stroke. Get the boys home and ice them down and be ready to beat those Swamp lizards on Tuesday. Go Big Orange!!

Written on Vols blow out Kentucky, 88-58:

Kitty,Kitty,Kitty, Here Kitty,Kitty!

Written on Georgia delivers a punch in gut to Vols, 68-62:

Stick a fork in this team. They are done. Cuonzo is done after next year. Mark that down

Written on Govols247: Tennessee adds kicker as walk-on :

in response to BIVOLAR_BEARE:

Levenberry the 4* LB was one of the most heralded recruits visiting this weekend.

Volquest.com has a list of whom visited this weekend

Written on Govols247: Tennessee adds kicker as walk-on :

Welcome to Big Orange Country!
Any news on any new commits.
Going to be hard to field a Sec caliber team with preferred walk-ons, which is all the news I've seen lately on recruits. Well at least they want to play here.

Written on Arkansas' in-your-face defense too much for Vols, 73-60 :

One more year this!

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

If it immediately plugs some needs and depth ,then yes

Written on Marshall Henderson talks the talk, walks the walk as Ole Miss sweeps UT, 62-56:

When the curtains come out, attendance is down and the concessions sales are down, and are being sold down the aisles. Then there will be change.

Written on Vols lose to Ole Miss, 92-74 in SEC opener:

in response to johnlg00:

The current Vol coaching staff scored more points in their collective playing careers than any other staff in college basketball. A teacher can teach, but only a student can learn.

Well they might need to dress up some of the coaching staff. Their teaching methods are not getting thru to their students

Written on Vols lose to Ole Miss, 92-74 in SEC opener:

If Hamilton was still here ,he would have given him a raise , contract extension ,and big buyout based on last season. This team is offensively challenged. Is there anyone on this staff that knows anything about teaching offense and shooting.

Written on UT men's basketball player Jeronne Maymon to redshirt :

Is Dwight Miller still on this team. He showed some promise last year when he got to play? Is he even on the bench?

Written on Derek Reese picks up the pieces for Vols, 51-47 :

If they can't score better than this, it's going to be a long SEC season.

Written on USC gave Lane Kiffin loan for house, but there's a catch:

in response to kraven_moorehead:

I think using TMZ as a source for news is a new low. The next big scoop will come from the Weekly World News.

National Enquirer

Written on USC gave Lane Kiffin loan for house, but there's a catch:

in response to SevenT:

This comment may be inappropriate. Reveal this comment.

One of the most hilarious moments in SEC history is when Kiffin bolted from Tennessee after 1 season.

Priceless!

Man you were up early to find you had no presents or anyone to spend Christmas with!

Priceless

Written on Tennessee's Stokely Athletics Center closing down :

What a piece of Vol basketball history. witnessed some of the greatest games in Tennessee basketball history, along with some of the greateat players and rivalry coaches. How bout those warmups a show within it's self. Who can forget the matches between Mears - Rupp, Skinner,Newton Maravich, and Durham. All of past Tennessee greats to have played there. Also, all of the Lady Vol teams to have played there as Pat built the Lady Vol brand. All of the fantastic concerts and even a boxing match I attended there in my younger days. Lots of memories, she will be missed.

Written on Tee Martin mulling over return to UT :

Mabe he's working with Swiperboy on a rap song for his return to Knoxville. Swiperboy still shows he's all Vol anyway. Come on Tee show a little appreciation to the Vol nation. I don't think anyone ask for your autograph in L.A.

Written on Jay Graham likely only holdover from Derek Dooley's staff :

Anyone heard of any players reconsidering on Tennessee list of commits.

Written on Jay Graham likely only holdover from Derek Dooley's staff :

in response to whiskeyman:

Is it just me or does Dave Hart look like one of the characters on Lord of the Rings. One of the Hobbits maybe?

Looks more like one of Herman Munster's offspring

Written on Poll: Do you believe Butch Jones is the right choice to be UT's coach?:

in response to signalcorps:

we need a coach now ,,nfl coachs can't leave until after their seasons over.........I think hart made a good hire

Someone forgot to tell Petrino that!

Written on New UT coach Butch Jones in Knoxville:

in response to jollofran:

Dave Hart will announce his resignation toward the end of the press conference.

You mean Ole Stoneface Hart.

Written on Charlie Strong: "Toughest decision I've had to make" to turn down UT:

We'll have a better idea of why he turned down Tennessee to coach in SEC, soon after Sugar Bowl loss.

Written on Ad for Vols' head coach posted on Craigslist:

in response to civilianvol_formerly_marinevol:

Hart should have turned the search over to a blue-chip head hunter committee. He obviously doesn't know what he's doing by letting coaches play with him to get big raises from their current schools. I have less confidence in him every day. He's starting to look pretty foolish.

Did'nt he state he had done this many times and we had plenty of time to find a good coach!

Written on Charlie Strong spurns UT offer for new deal at Louisville:

Jones linked to Colorado job.

Written on Charlie Strong spurns UT offer for new deal at Louisville:

Saw Tennessee coaching job just listed on Craigslist.

Written on Charlie Strong spurns UT offer for new deal at Louisville:

I believe Mr. (don't worry I've done this many times) Hart has run this coaching search in the ditch. We've got plenty of time?

Written on UT out? Gundy, Strong negotiating to stay at their schools:

I hope Hart has not run this search in the ditch and we end up with another Dooley last minute hire. Supposedly Strong and Gundy have both turned us down.

Written on Phillip Fulmer had 'the right influences' on way to Hall of Fame :

Congratulations Coach Fulmer. A true Vol For Life

Written on Is Tennessee's coaching search nearing the finish line, or does Dave Hart still plan more talks? :

in response to pcshowtime:

Well it appears no Jimbo fisher.
I wonder how many more of super agent Jimmy Sexton's clients Al Davis I mean Dave Hart will make sure get a raise from their current school.
folks wake up and smell the coffee:
1. Jimbo fisher represented by Jimmy Sexton
check
2. Mike Gundy represented by Jimmy Sexton
Check
3. Charlie Strong represented by Jimmy Sexton
Check
4. Dave hart represented by I wonder who

Or Dave Hart representing who?

Written on Vanderbilt gives coach James Franklin new contract:

in response to Prostar:

He's helped them sell-out their 40,000 seat stadium 3 times this year, whoopee. Who is their crossover rivalry game? I know it's not Alabama. Yeah, I know, we're down but we're not going to be down long. It's going to take time but we will recover from the Hamilton/Dooley fiasco.

As long as we don't come up with a HART/ ( to be named sometime ) fiasco.

in response to golfman1975:

Maryville High School head coach George Quarles...anouncement coming after the Blue Cross Bowl....unless he loses. Great recruiter...gone through puberty succesfully and can coach um up. Just remember that most college coaches started.

My point is simple...nobody knows jack so save your fingers and stop typing.

He Lost, so mark off another one.
