You hold others to a higher standard.

Saudis or GTFO!

 

[DD4ME]

Before anyone gets their hopes up. We still suck.


Hahahahahahahahahaha

 

[UTProf]

Let’s hope they don’t figure out their web/oline situation. A season with losses to only bama and uga is a guaranteed playoff spot imo.

It certainly should be but who knows anymore?

The way the NCAA is going, they might do a LIV

Heup is a lot of things team.

Most of them bad ass. Buckle up buttercups.

You're not going to get much talking from this staff. They just go about their business and let the announcements come when they come. Not all of these recruiting battles are being lost-- UT is not going after some of these players and they're backing off others (like Joly). They have their reasons-- they're just not sharing them. I don't expect that to change.

They do those traveling meetings each year and I would think if a fan attended they could get better insight than just reading tea leaves. Certainly reporters are not asking with the intent of printing this staffs recruitment/portal strategies. What are those meetings called again? Big orange caravan? Quarterback club?

 

[JCVol00]

Great pickup!

 

[crawdaddyjc]

nico is gonna have fun

 

[Adam Sandler]

I would of swore Norman Lott announced his return the other day,

I think I recall seeing a reporter say he was likely to stay, but not an official statement from ONL.

 

[KptVFL]

"Pitiful," "What are WE doing/" "Concerned." "Internal Promotion Abeln needs to go."

Really man?

You know the drill!

We missed on that one guy.

 

[clt_tiger]

[Adam Sandler]

well, you said it.

He sure has a pretty good like-post ratio for being a child-minded bipolar individual.

Well yeah, because at first he was always sunshine and rainbows. Not that hard to get likes when you worship the team around here.

It’s after all the ****** seasons he started go back and fourth a little

 

[jave36]

Does ole miss have like a billion dollars in their collective or

It's pretty loaded. Guy I work with is an ole miss booster and he said it's one of the top funded ones in the country.

My first job was working at my dad’s service station - I waited on the pumps which included greeting the customer, pumping gas, washing windshields, and checking oil. I added oil if needed and checked the air in the tires as well. I took their money (almost always cash), rang it up on the cash register (manual) and made change if necssary. On the weekends, my job was also to wash the box trucks that were affiliated with Tennessee Eastman.

Did you have one of those change making dispensers that you wore on your waist?

 

[Volfan39]

Nyland green, AJ Harris: CB WISHLIST

Dude we aren’t getting Nyland green

 

[Jackcrevol]

Ok. Im not disagreeing. Know nussin', see nussin'.

From

Stat Pack: Where Tennessee finished the regular season in national and SEC stat rankings

Where Tennessee finished the 2023 regular season in the SEC and nationally in several stat rankings.

247sports.com

for 2024 Vols football stats.

Worse on passing and overall offense, but better on rushing.
Actually better on defense in some areas.

BUT, whoa boy, either the refs hate us, or Heupel has to do something about cleaning up this mess from the past two years:
Penalties per game: 8.2 (14th SEC/131st FBS)
> 2022: 8.1 (14th SEC/129th FBS)
Penalty yards per game: 71.1 (14th SEC/129th FBS)
> 2022: 68.8 (14th SEC/124th FBS)


AND either the refs hate us, or all of the players on all of our opponents' programs have extremely disciplined players.
"NOTE: Tennessee opponents were penalized the fourth-fewest times (5.6 per game) for the second-fewest penalty yards (40.2 per game) in the SEC."

Perfectly possible that our style of offense leads to more penalties than other teams.

The last statline though: also perfectly possible that the refs hate us.
