Hopefully this ends the Phillips as a starter experiment for this year.

Could this finally be the year the Vols win a baseball or softball CWS ? We gave one away when we had arguably the best softball pitcher in history, Monica Abbot. In 2022 we had what many said was the best college baseball team ever, yet we didn’t even make it to Omaha. It’s time for the CWS...

Experience, confidence, and maturity paying off.

Dickey leaving when he did was the worst thing to ever happen to UT football and one of the best for Bama. We were loaded with talent and had our foot firmly on Bama’s neck. Battle inherited a gold mine but a lack of quality recruiting killed the program.

It would be a crime if we finish behind a team we went 2-0 against.

No injuries.

And the wise men saw a star rising in the East. Glad we got him.

I will be curious to see how D.J. Burns matches up against him.

We would have won today with D.J. Burns.

Final Four ONLY because we’ve never been there.

Unfortunately for the most part it was just a 2 man team for most of the year. Looking at the box score for the Bama / Clemson game, they both had 5 players with double digit points. We never had that balance.

Unfortunately, BVS is a virus. And as such, once it infects your body, it never completely goes away. Usually during the Summer, when all UT athletic teams are over for the year, it goes into remission until early fall when it returns with a vengeance. There is no known vaccination available.

Whenever I’m talking to someone and they say ” Voles “, I ask them ” How do you pronounce’ Volunteer’ , we’ll just leave off the ‘ unteer’, and that’s how our shortened nickname is pronounced.

I honestly feel that if I were building a college basketball team, I would choose DK first. He can do so many things on a basketball court. Handle the ball; drive to the rim; pass/assist; rebound; shoot from anywhere on the court, etc. Those skills are much harder to find than just a big goon...

The team needs to immediately go to Detroit. Stay up late. Get out of bed at noon. Rearrange meal times. Start practicing at 9/10 pm.
