I've seen it happen that recruits leave after losing a coach so let's hope we don't!!

Written on Justin Wilcox, Peter Sirmon hired by Washington:

yep... it was going to happen!! TN needs to pull out the pocketbooks and try to get somebody good in there.

Written on Hot-shooting Lady Vols rout UCLA, 85-64 :

Way to go Lady Vols!! Keep it up!
I wonder if the game will re-play this week on TV??
Stanford will be more challenging but if all the seniors step up, we can do it!

Written on LSU's Chavis wins Broyles Award as top assistant:

Congrats!! Now come back to Tennessee!!!!!!!!

Written on Derek Dooley: Da'Rick Rogers 'still a part of our football team':

DaRick is a young kid with all this getting in his head. He was the star after JH went down. If there was a problem, why deal with it now and not during the season?? I think he'll come back with new attitude or sit the bench. We have Croom coming in and he is good too!!

Written on Bob Gilbert: Dooley, Vols hit rock bottom:

Tennessee will be back next year!!! Hang in there Vol fans!! It was not going to happen in 2 years!!

Written on SEC coordinator of officials: Crew blew call twice in Vols victory:

We won!! Got the int and he took it back. Nothing else to discuss except we should have gotten a safety.. now that was the bad call of the night.

Written on More than mistakes for defense:

The longest 3/12 hours of my life.

Written on Give Them (0 and) 6: Big plays lead to Arkansas onslaught, 49-7 :

The sun did rise this morning and I am still a Vol fan. Never been so excited to play KY before.
May be a 4-5 year rebuilding. It will not be a 2 year Saban rebuilding.

Written on Derrick Brodus springs from couch, answers call for a kicker :

Seems Parlardy is hurt a lot. Do they stretch and warm up before kicking??

Written on Dominating first half leads Vols to 24-0 shutout of MTSU :

I happen to love the Orange pants! Dooley is sincere in getting us back to winning. TN is not a stepping stone as it was to Kiffen or anybody else that may have come in. We got to look to next year and hope our offense starts clicking. We have a good class coming in!! Next year will be a different story! Stay supportive Vol fans!!
These kids work hard!!

Written on QB situation once again up in the air after offensively challenged performance :

We lost but the Vols are still my team. We have to remember Worley did some good things and not focus on the IT's. He'll get some good experience and get better. I know if frustrating but we need to keep supporting our kids. They work hard and I believe next year we'll be better. We will not win 8 games but we will improve.

Written on Report card :

We'll be stonger next year Vol fans. We have some good kids coming in and Bray,Hunter,will be back. DaRick will only improve as well. It will take 2 more years to get back to 8-9 wins so hang in there. SC is a good possiblity since Lattimore is out now with bad leg. Arkansas has SPEED so we need our secondary to speed up!! Go Vols!!!! Our day will come!!

Written on Tennessee gets 'pounded': LSU 38, Tennessee 7:

Tennessee fans.. we are still rebuilding. Dooley will not get it done in 2 years or even 3. We do not have a full roster of 5 ***** players or the depth we need. The D came out strong but of offense did not click. That results in D getting really tired out there with no one to put in. Teams like LSU and Ala have 3-4 deep with top players. I am still a Vol Fan win or lose! It hurts but firing Dooley is not the answer. Even if Urban came in now, he would not win 9 games. So hang in there with these kids... they play hard.

Written on 'Rally on Rocky Top' planned for Friday at 5:15 p.m. outside Gate 21:

We are lucky to have Dooley. Who else wanted the job?? Give him a couple more years to get there. He is an honorable guy wearing the Orange Pants for goodness sake!! Our day will come but it will not be this year.

Written on Meet the Lady Vols: Isabelle Harrison :

Can't wait to see you play!!! Welcome Isabelle!

Written on Vince Dooley: Georgia has 'best opportunity' to win SEC East :

He's not quite jumped that fence like Barbara!! She Rocks!! He's Not!

Written on Top Lady Vols prospects making official, unofficial visits:

Welcome Welcome!! to the Big Orange Nation.

Written on Barbara Dooley defends 'my baby' on radio show :

Barbara D's got it going on!! Just get her a pair of those ORANGE PANTS!!!

Written on Derek Dooley declines media interviews after practice :

After watching the video of today's practice, I'd be Po'd too.. this is the SEC for heaven's sake..

Written on Derek Dooley declines media interviews after practice :

in response to ROCKYTOPBRAD:

He needs to decide if he wants to be jerry clower or the tennessee football coach!

Dooley pretty much tells it like it is..funny or not!! I like his attitude and his approach. No excuses and let's step it up.

Written on Derek Dooley on the Montana game:

in response to halloffamebowler:

Quit talking about my wife like that.

If you are lucky,some day that could be said about you.

Us Blue hairs as you say, have given our all for Tennessee for many years.Not only by being at the games but with our wallets as well.

My wife and I have given 40 years of football seasons to Newland Stadium and untold dollars in donations during that time. Just what the hel- have you given except your stupidity?

You don't realize how hard it is for some of us old Blue Hair fans to even get to the games anymore. Our old body and our voice dosen't work like it use to work but that dosen't make us any less of a fan nor any less excited while in the stands watching the game.

My Old Blue Haired wife will likely be attending the Vol games this year for the last time.She and Pat are in the same boat .This time next year,she may not even remember that Tennessee plays football.
I really don't want to believe you were meaning to be disrespectful with your post but you should be more careful with your choice of words.Us old blue haired fans will soon be gone for one reason or another only to be replaced by you and your OLD BLUE HAIR.

My Mom's a blue hair and 80 yrs old. She still puts on her Tennessee shirts and watches with the family. Even the younger generation would rather be at my Mom's on game day!! So give em heck OLD BLUE HAIR!!!!!!!

Written on OPPORTUNITYISNOWHERE: Derek Dooley On the Vols' 2011 Season:

in response to 62vol:

This 72 year old Vol fan is ready for some football! I sold hotdogs in the stadium starting back in 1951. When I was'nt working in the stands, I could get in free if I wore my High school Jacket with the letter on it.
I wrote this poem years ago.

“ Out Goes The Call”

When the pigskin takes flight on a Saturday night
down in Tennessee

And the hills are ablaze in an orange smoky haze
oh, what a glorious sight to see

The mighty men in Orange and White will come to fight
and thousands will come to see

And Oh, what a feeling in that fortress named Neyland (Nee-land)
when they come running through the Tee

To test their mettle in the Big Orange kettle
against those foes of the S.E.C.

The walking horse will dance and the majorettes will prance,
then ole Smokey will start to bay

And that “Volunteer” and the cheerleaders so dear
will come out to lead the way

And from that grandest of bands, “The Pride of the Southland”,
“Rocky Top” will start to play

Then out will go the call to one and to all
“It’s football time in Tennessee!”

By: Tom James Hendersonville, Tn

This is pretty awesome!! Mind if I post it on FB?

Written on Derek Dooley on the Montana game:

Noticed we moved up to #16 in recruiting even though we lost Pat Martin. Several guys upgraded from 3 stars to 4 including the QB out of Fla...
Can't wait!!!!!!!!GBO!!!!!!!

Written on Freshman Pat Martin will transfer; safety 'dealing with a personal issue' :

Another personel issue? I hope he has not fallen into the J.Jackson category of personel issues. Wish him the best!!

Written on Janzen Jackson dismissed from Tennessee football team:

The choices we make in life determine our path and where we will go. Jantzen has the talent of Eric Berry but made some bad choices. It takes more than talent to be a good player or person. I pray that Jantzen seeks help and gets his life together. He obviously does not consider it a priviledge or honor to play for the University of Tennessee. Thousands of kids out there would give anything to have a full scholarship to the UT.

Written on Pat Summitt diagnosed with early onset dementia:

Pat will be fine!! She will coach long as she can and I think that will be for a while.This is an early diagnosis so this can take a long time before developing into anything serious.... GO LV!!

Written on Oiled up? Offense's first check spotty:

Bray and the offense will click. It's just a scrimmage. It's a different field when you start on game #1 and not halfway through season. Have some faith Orange fans!!

Written on Tide working on to-do list amid hype:

How bout some news on Tennessee John?? Would like to hear something about camp and some of OUR players....

Written on Gold medal and all-tournament honors for Ariel Massengale :

Congratulations to the Cierra and Ariel! I can't wait to see them play for Pat come fall.

Written on Vols expecting much better running game:

Everybody talks so much about our young QB and receivers. Were not any younger than Ga. Ala.and some other SEC teams so we need to quit using that as an excuse not to do well.

Written on Mike Strange: Recruiting bonanza restores some calm:

*** star players are better than no players!!

Written on John Adams: Fashion statement speaks well of Derek Dooley:

I'll go so far as to say he's HOT! yep, I said it.
and ...his wife is beautiful too!!

Written on GVX247: Running back commits to Vols :

Wonder what happened to the other QB we were after in Fla.?

Written on Dooley is satisfied with recruit limit:

I just hope we start getting some commits. Reading a lot here in Atl. on lots of committments going to other Sec schools.. let's hope Dooley can finish strong.

Written on Report: Auburn still under NCAA investigation:

in response to prughj#1339542:

To anyone who thinks Auburn and Cam are clean, I have some great oceanfront property in Arizona to sell you........

Agreed!

Written on Derek Dooley says Janzen Jackson has 'a lot of things to do to stay a part of the team':

We shall see!!! Time will tell if this kid is back on track.

Written on Kamiko Williams likely to miss season with torn ACL :

Sad thing is they never seem to be back fully recovered and have limited playing time.

Written on Kamiko Williams likely to miss season with torn ACL :

in response to kazoo:

Good grief: I have NEVER heard of a team that is SO injury prone. It would be comical if it weren't UT. If they don't have a knee injury when they get here, they suffer one soon after. Avant--an 18-year-old freshman--hardly played her freshman year after encountering one medical issue after another. 18 years old. Never seen anything like it.

I agree!! We seem to have soooooo many knee, ankle and shoulder injuries at UT.

Written on Scotty Hopson: 'I regret not being strong enough mentally' during past season:

Don't give up Scotty! I loved seeing you play at Tennessee and I wish you luck and encouragement to see your dream come true. Don't listen to the critics but go and work hard to make that dream come true.

Written on GVX247: Sophomore QB in Florida gets early offer from Vols :

I would love to see this guy in the Orange and White!!!

Written on Hamilton to get $1.335 million in UT separation agreement, offers upbeat message at resignation announcement:

Does anyone know what Kiffen tweeted on Mike's resignation?

Written on Hamilton to get $1.335 million in UT separation agreement, offers upbeat message at resignation announcement:

Mike is a good person. I wish him the best!
Tennessee continues to find replacements!! Hope we get a good one.

Written on Derek Dooley won't ban Twitter yet :

Twitter is not for complaining or using profanity or getting attention. If used with dignity it can be encouraging. I love the to follow Inky Johnson. He has such a postive outlook on life. I have blocked some of the new guys that are all about being cute and cool.. I think it will be coming soon... twitter will be banned because of those few with no respect to the public or to the Tennessee program.

Written on Signee Eddrick Loften not enrolled at Tennessee:

91.6 days till Football Time in Tennessee!! Don't worry about who has not shown up but who has!! Those are the guys we are hoping are the VFL give it all you got guys!!!
