Ut sports must have an impact on you, you are here on Christmas eve eve. Anyways, after 40 years as a Vol Fan, I've learned to be realistic. And realistic is Tennessee wasn't really that good this year, and at least half of the best players are gone. Better to be realistic and surprised than optimistic and disappointed.

A different approach. Not better. Not worse.

Our fans are the same as any big time program. Some are every bit as bad as Bama, UGA, or OSU fans.

The consensus belief on here during the coaching search in January of 2021, was that it could take Tennessee 4 or 5 years to even make another bowl game again. Pretty much everyone agreed that it would be almost impossible for the next coach to recruit at a high level while under an NCAA investigation for Level 1 violations that our Chancellor had already publicly acknowledged were committed.

Now, that was with most people assuming that the NCAA sanctions would be much heavier than they were ..... but still, this forum has a short memory. The job Heupel has done here is incredible. He really should leave and go somewhere that such results would be appreciated.

This place has been such a joke since Saturday night. People have lost their ever-loving minds.

Stuck where we have been under Heupel? That is a weird comment. I wouldn't blame Heupel if he bolted. This is an ungrateful fan base.

Stuck at around 9-10 wins a year without any wins over elite opponents.

It's not a bad place to be "stuck" but it's a real ceiling. one that I'm fine with for now. But after a decade or more, it'll start being like UGA under Mark Richt. Which did lead to them getting Kirby, so it's not the worst place to be "stuck".

People are the worst.

The vexed vocally vomiting vitriol don't define this fandom. He is greatly appreciated. And I think he knows it.

No we have not beat elite teams , take off your SEC conference koolaid goggles. Elite teams are elite in every aspect of their team. Name of team don’t make them elite . OSU, GA, Texas and Oregon right now are the elite. And we are waaaay below them . Every time we play Georgia should tell you just how elite we are. Not playing a Alabama that is no longer elite, Florida not elite , Ark not elite, Miss State not elite etc etc etc

Lolololol 2022 Alabama was def Elite but yall act like the sky is falling when we just made the CFP for the first time ever and second 10 win season in 3 years. We are literally still under NCAA sanctions as well. It isn't gonna happen instantly get it through yalls skulls, it takes time. We are undoubtably headed in the right direction. We played Georgia to a one score game at night in Athens late into the fourth quarter, are they not elite? I would even say we overachieved this year when you actually look at what we put on the field at o line, safety, and other positions. Nico's first year in the SEC as well. BTW buddy just won the most games in a season by a freshman QB IN TENNESSEE HISTORY. Beating your two most hated rivals at the moment (or at least mines) Alabama and Florida. THE SKY IS NOT FALLING I PROMISE
