Written on Lady Vols outfielder Melissa Davin to miss rest of season:

in response to CalifLadyVolFan:

We are holding out hope that Melissa will heal up by WCWS. I flew into Knoxville tonight and I am attending her Dr appt with her tomorrow. She had a plate and 9 screws placed in her hand which was going to give her the best chance to heal correctly and heal quickly. The earliest that she would be ready was 3 weeks.... 4 weeks was WCWS... Go Lady Vols!!!!

Mike Davin

Wow!!! Good luck and thanks for the update.

Written on Arkansas ends Lady Vols' win streak at 19:

19 in a row, wow!!!

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

I would not leave school early unless I was being told I would be a 1st or 2nd round pick. I don't get these kids.

Written on Four Alabama football players arrested on robbery charges:

Dang!!! I remember the old days when the VOLS were winning championships and our players where getting arrested. Good times.

Here is the bad part, you may be right. If Jones can not win 6 or 7 games next year, then no one will want to come to UT. We will have another below 25 class and the losing will continue.

Written on Updated odds for all of Tennessee's football targets:

in response to orange_eVOLution:

Pathetic article. Why even write it?

For the information, now we know what odds we may be looking at.

Written on Updated odds for all of Tennessee's football targets:

Wow! If we get the 3 that we have the odds on we will still be 12th in the SEC. We may never get to go to a bowl game again.

Written on Dallas Cowboys haven't hired Derek Dooley yet :

in response to VOLS_SEC_RULES:

Reminds me of the ending of the LSU game and the UNC game....just when you think Dooley may have been successful.....wrong!

Best comment of the tread.

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

We have middle of the pack talent. Yes, we have to.

Written on John Adams: Vols chasing Vanderbilt in recruiting :

James Franklin has shown he is one of the best coaches in coaching and recruiting in the country. I do not know why he was not on the top of our list. I do see BJ doing well, but not as well as JF would had done.

Written on All-American Kelsey Robinson among 4 players transferring from Tennessee volleyball program:

My daughter I went to see the VB team play SC. She finished her HS freshman year and was interested in UT until she saw Coach Patrick temper. Now I don't know if she will ever get to play big time VB, and no I didn't think anything about his temper. He is a hardask and some girls just can’t handle it.

Written on John Adams: Avoiding Oregon would be worse than losing to it:

Just win 6 games so we can go to a bowl, 6 games.

Written on Butch Jones' first Tennessee coaching staff introduced to public:

Recruit, recruit, recruit. They can be the best coaching staff, but you have to recruit like Fulmer to win SEC rings.

Written on Lady Vols catch another cold at Baylor:

Watching the Texas game, I was impressed how well the LV shot the ball. Then this happen, I guess they were too pumped.

Written on Tennessee snaps scoring slump, beats No. 23 Wichita State, 69-60 :

Ok, Skylar needs to ride the bench. His shooting is way off and his D is lacking. Maybe sometime this year he might get his stroke back.

Written on UT men's basketball needs to push the pace to spur its offense :

in response to golfman1975:

Coach Martin took a team picked last in the East and finished tied for 2nd...nearly beat KY. Played 7 games without Maymon and are 4-3...could have have beaten Georgetown who took #1 Indiana in overtime...even though they had a bad offensive night. Miller is out as well...2 bigs with Maymon being he heart of the team with both being impact players. Yeah, you talk already of getting rid of CM. Stokes will develop leaps and bounds this year...he is only supposed to be a freshman this year ya know.... Sell your gosh darn tickets and dont let the door hit you in the butt...I suppose the injuries were CM's fault. Go ahead and say it. Ask Georgetown if they want to play us in Ktown. Bet not. Hope Santa gives you a Christmas tree supository.

"Hope Santa gives you a Christmas tree supository." LOL!!! I bet you waited all year to use that one.

Written on Cincinnati AD: Dave Hart was "first class" throughout process:

Butch Jones is a good hire, if he can recruit, he will be a great hire.

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

He's a winner, and we like winners.

Written on John Adams: 2012 Notre Dame similar to 1998 Vols' national title team :

Our 1998 team could beat ND by 13 and Bama will beat them by 10.

in response to powerTbaby:

(This comment was removed by the site staff.)

I think you are 100% correct. Move on people, nothing to see here.

Written on Kentucky hires FSU assistant Mark Stoops as coach:

I think Mark can improve KY, they will happy with the hire for a couple of years.

Written on John Adams: Tennessee still a top-20 job ... especially if the price is right :

All it takes is the right coach. With the right coach we will be playing for the east in two years and playing for a NC in four. But remember when we hired Dooley, no one wanted it.

Written on Tennessee players take news of Derek Dooley's firing in stride :

in response to jobrando#216494:

there soft world is coming to end...soon it will be time to learn what it means to be a Tennessee Volunteer.

It's their, not there, your knowledge of grammar and football is about the same.

in response to collegegrovebilly:

(This comment was removed by the site staff.)

Put a good product of the field and you don't have to worry about being the fall guy.

Written on Dooley: Tyler Bray will be benched if he throws more interceptions:

I don't think we would had lost the KY game last year if Bray didn't play. He was sick all week and really didn't want to play in the first place.

Written on Vols Rajion Neal doubtful for Alabama game:

Hey Dooley, your whole rebuilding would go better if you recruited better.

Written on With Vols-Gators a Top 25 showdown, ESPN's Gameday rolling into town:

Being ranked is huge. Means we will be seen more on TV, not just games, but highlights too. This game is UTs biggest game since we lost to LSU on the final play.

Written on Up-front Tennessee Vols take leadership:

in response to GreerVol22:

This season depends on the running and kicking games. Period. Fix one and we win 7 games...fix both and we win 9-10...and yes, its that simple.

That's sounds about right.

Written on Tennessee announces new premium tailgate area, Tailgate Tennessee:

It is really not a bad deal. You figure you get 7 couples to split $800 and everyone bring a dish. For $115 you have a prime spot with a TV and you only need to bring beer and food.

Written on Bruce Pearl hired by ESPN, will stay in Knoxville:

You can't keep winners down.

Written on John Adams: Mock it down, UT an offensive attraction:

I would be happy with 8 wins, but please beat the heck out of FL. I am sick that they have done so well against us lately. If we can go 4-0 we will be in the top 25 and recruiting would take off. Oh, and yes, Bray would be a first round draft pick.

Written on Lady Vols' WCWS problems began with first inning:

To me, it just looked like the cruse of UT sports hit the softball team too. Last years football, then men's basketball, baseball team, so on and so on. The Lady's BB did lose the the NC, so I don't count them. Over all, the SB team still had a great season, and next year should be better.

Written on Vanderbilt's James Franklin draws fire after comments on wives:

Franklin is a great recruiter and when he gets hired by a big time program, will be a top 10 coach.

It stinks to be a VOL. Will this black cloud ever leave????

This is the best he could get? Army's recruiting??? Right, cause you know Army always gets the best swimming and diving prospects. Someone please explain to me why I am wrong.

Written on Auburn's big inning too much for Vols, 12-5:

We have lost 10 out of the last 12, UGLY!!!

Written on Holly Warlick 'knows the tradition and the legacy' :

I think Coach Warlick can coach, but can she recruit? I hope so and we are about to see.

Written on Petrino's ex-mistress put on leave at Arkansas:

The letter amounts to an "understanding" that there are "no agreements, whether written or oral, regarding your employment other than those contained in this letter."
I think the oral thing was taken the wrong way.

Written on No superheroes in UT's backfield:

I want the back that gets hit after a 2 yard gain, but falls forward for 2 more.

Written on Vols rally to beat Alabama, 10-8 :

Any time you beat Alabama, its a good day.

Written on Sources: Da'Rick Rogers received two-week ban in offseason:

I had to fire some good employees due to bad attitudes, just part of life.

Written on DB Mackensie Alexander decommits, cites Terry Joseph's departure:

If we win 8 games, we will be in the top 10 in recruiting again. I think Dooley has seen the light and that those stars do mean something.

Written on Would you rather your team win an NIT championship or go one-and-done in the NCAAs?:

Going to the big dance shows your program is successful.

CantCompare says it all, except I do not hate Kiffen.

Written on New coaches working through acclimation period:

Chaney being lay-back and cool may be part of the problem on why we can not run the ball.

Written on Steve Rubio no longer a part of Dooley's staff :

in response to tovolny:

The VOL-ca-no erupts again. Rubio was part of the diversity. It takes all kinds. Hi-oh-orange pants-awaaaayyyyyy. Who was that man in the orange pants? Don't you know? That was the LONE DOOLEY. The LONE DOOLEY rides again! Hi-ohhhh!......Probably a good move...is it RUBIO or RODEO...Hi-oh orange pants-awaaaaayyyyy!

LOL!!! I see you had your fill of caffeine this morning.
