Monumental win for Jones. The fact that the

[Sandvol]

team did not give up on him is very telling. To go on the road and win even against Kentucky is big. It gives me a little hope and should help recruiting.

 

[mdrew27]

Ill take a win any day

 

[volfan411]

After the last few years any win we get is a positive. I have learned not to take any game for granted. Lets hope we can take this win and build on it for a good start next year.

I like what the commentators said about CBJ and his programs... his first year at Cinci he went 4 & 8 and the next year 10 & 3. That gives me hope that once signing day 2014 is over and he actually sees what he's got to work with, he'll go to work shaping and molding the squad brick by brick. GO VOLS!!!!!!

 

[drgreear]

I don't know how Jones motivated team 117 to win but he sure did. I thought we'd lay an egg like we did back in '11. Go Vols, brighter days are coming.

Absolutely agree, minus the recruiting part. Recruiting is going as good as it can already.

Damn right

 

[KBVol]

I agree. I picked Ky to win 23-20. This is the right way to end the season. Glad to see they avoided the 8th loss! Bring on Josh Malone and the rest of the 2014 class and lets get going for next year!

I was afraid if we'd gone 4-8 we might see some attrition.

Monumental?

It's Kentucky dude.

A moral victory that we actually won? Does not compute. error.

 

[YankeeVol]

Is this seriously what we've come to? People are excited over a win against Kentucky?!?!?!

I've said it a lot today. There was more riding on this one than at first glance. Please don't make me type all that stuff out again...just be happy with the win.

Slow down. This is the SEC and we are losing quite a few players. Next year is huge in players getting expierence and a no quit attitude. If we are 2 games better I would love it.

I think it does. Jones could have tried to sit on his lead like he did against Vanderbilt and he didn't. He allowed his quarterback to play. He recognized the error of his ways against Vanderbilt. This does give me some hope. We've got Jones anyway for at least two more years so you might as well look for the positives if they are there. I don't mean pump sunshine. But when he does something good give him credit where credit is due.

I'm always happy with a win, but it's KENTUCKY. No matter how bad we are, I'll ALWAYS expect a win against Kentucky. ALWAYS

And Vandy too?

 

[YankeeVol]

And Vandy too?

Vandy has been better than us going on 3 years now. They aren't an easy W anymore. At least until Franklin is gone.

What if many of these new players come in and make us a lot better? There is no doubt we will win 2 more games than this season.

Dobbs had a freshman moment in the Vandy game and North was hurt. With Worley, Vandy is an easy win.

I have doubt.

With how bad we've been the last several years? Yes. I'm excited about a win against Kentucky. I'm excited about ANY win. They haven't been real easy to come by lately.

Now, I'm not popping the cork on champagne or anything, but I AM glad the team won and managed to win on the road outside of the state, regardless of the opponent. I don't think it's an indication that we're going to be world beaters or even any good next year, but I'm glad they won.

We go to their house next season. Wonder if Franklin is still the coach?
