i went back and watched the presser again and came away with the same interpretation I had before. There was a reference to the guys who did not make this trip (I took it to mean all the guys not on the travel squad), but he was including them in the general statement that he wanted this one to hurt for everyone in the program, including them and the guys who did make the trip.

Either way, Heupel has his job cut out for him this week. He could easily lose this team now. It'll be a hell of a job to get them focused on the next game.

I also thought it looked like he was lying when he said he didn’t see anything amiss at practice this week. He starts rubbing the back of his head and looking away when he answered.

Yeah, I noticed that body language, too. And I didn'thave a good feeling about it, either. But scratching the back of the neck while looking away could mean he was reviewing the week in his mind to see if there was something about practice that was amiss. I'm no expert on body language. I wish I was. But I picked up some vibes there, too, just like you. I'm just not sure what they are.

So Ratt poison got Banks.. what’s gonna be so hard is trying to control this NIL stuff some many egos and people In people ears this is not good imo needs to be a cap. Jimbo is going thru this right now, this messes up locker rooms. Saban is probably correct about this NIL even though Bama already pays. Maybe the millions of dollars going to one player and others getting lower thousands is not a good deal..

I understand this but it’s gonna take big $ to get a top QB in the world of competition.

Can't un-ring that bell now. This is something that in time players will just have to learn to accept. I can't believe I just said that. I hated everything about the NIL deal and was ridiculed to no end about it.

Banks stepped on “T”
Supposed to do push-ups when you do that…
Banks didn’t do it.
Hooker said something..
Banks said something back..
Milton had to step in between.
Was a one game suspension.
That’s going around Knoxville tonight, nothing about NIL.
Someone else also said it on Voluntary Reaction tonight about a hour ago too.
It’s probably somewhere in the middle, but calling Banks a crack slinging criminal is unacceptable. That dude has laid it on the line multiple games throughout his career for Tennessee.
He doesn’t control the pass rush, and simple pass coverage. That falls on the defense coordinator. That’s the reason we lost.

I think we can all agree that Banks is not a scholar by any means. But quitting on this would be one of the stupidest things ever. If true if course and I don't think it is.

I’m assuming it’s that Power T or another one. Like how LSU “respects the Tiger” on their field and doesn’t step on it outside of the football game, I’m assuming the players aren’t supposed to step on that T. Could be wrong.

Eh, possible I guess, but seems like a strange reason for a fight between players, and even stranger for Banks to be disciplined if Milton stepped between them and no fight actually occurred. Seems like there would have to be a little more to it than that, but that’s just me.

Sort of probably hard not to step on it, since it takes up a good portion of floor between the lockers.

I still can't believe we lost by 25 points. The worst defensive game I've ever seen us play. WTF Yall?

Yep I thought the same thing, some sort of T in the complex or practice field or something. And I agree, seems like a pretty petty thing to have such a team/ locker room-destroying altercation over.

I don't know anything but this last minute Jeremy Banks loss was devastating. It may have cost us the game. I've also said this NIL stuff will split locker rooms, but why this late in the season?

Hookers the first player on this team to openly make good money maybe? I mean I could be wrong, but ever since hooker got that Mercedes deal the week of Georgia.. somethings just been off.

Blows my mind that there could be any locker room issues with the season we have had. Only at Tennessee

Naw, humans typically blow themselves up with self-destructive behavior. Just look at what happened with Ricky Williams, Pete Ross, Mike Tyson, John Tyson, and now/soon to be, Vladimir Putin. It's the human way. Regarding Banks, we can only hope the report is a hoax.
