I'm a recent Tennessee grad and I have friends who play on the team. Conversations that I've have had in the last 48 hours with them have me sold on Pruitt and this staff. The culture has completely changed from past administrations. For these players to block out all of the negativity on how they will be lucky to win 4 games this year, and potentially being the worst team in school history, this team kept their heads down and worked their butt off to pull off an impressive road win. Watching that game Saturday, I was so happy with the heart and effort our team showed all 4 quarters, and like many on here, we are waking up on a Monday for the first time in long time proud to say we are a Tennessee Vol.
I have heard many times a big turning point for this team was Pruitt's emotional post game press conference after the UGA game. For the first time, these players saw a coach that will ride for them, and in turn they came out against Auburn and played for their coach and for each other. The culture has shifted and we are trending in the right direction. Recruiting will pick up, and all we need to do as fans is get behind this team every game. Another awesome point I heard was the incredible turnout VOL FANS had at Auburn for a team that hasn't won an SEC game since 2016. We really do have the most loyal and passionate fan base, and with that I am optimistic Tennessee is a sleeping giant. If we continue to back Pruitt and this team, Tennessee will be back to being Tennessee again. Go Vols, and lets pack Neyland Saturday and show this team the continued support they deserve.
