I think UT should definitely add women's gymnastics and men's soccer. Both sports are huge in the state, especially Knoxville. There are multiple gymnastic schools in Knoxville alone. Plus, for the last decade+, Knoxville has dominated boys high school soccer. Of course, I've been saying that for a decade and it still hasn't happened
Fight the good fight.

 
No...the AD makes enough and has plenty of facilities now to do both.

The Tennessee rowing teams are a fixture...I used to go over to Melton Hill fishing, and I would see them doing their thing sometimes...them folks can MOVE on the water.
Rowing is fun to watch during Olympics but I like most sports.

The curling events during Winter Olympics are a must see for me.🤷

Hmm..that’s interesting I’ve never heard of that brand…how expensive? The Apple max’s are Bluetooth and can use a cord from what I understand..but I agree I feel like Apple could improve the AirPods to compete against other Bluetooth wireless headphones..only downside to that is Apple sells itself so as long as they making a profit they probably won’t change much

you can’t do both or you will have to get rid of another male sport.
 
I've never weighed in on this debate, mostly because I don't care about basketball; but it seems like the difference between Brady and a host of other QB who are more physically talented. In a random pickup game, MJ would get schooled by quite a few other basketball players. Same for Brady (though football is much more a team sport than basketball, so his strategy of taking far less money than his market value to be on winning teams is the main reason for his success, in my opinion).

But over the course of a long season and long career, when mental toughness and will to win matter a lot more than they do in a single game, both just seem to have what it takes to sustain success despite their inferior physical talent and measurables.

LeBron and Kobe are obviously superior physically to MJ, just like dozens of QBs are obviously superior to Brady from a talent and physical standpoint; but MJ and Brady found a way to win despite that, and that's why they had the greatest careers.
WTH are you talking about…. MJ had. an advantage in Vertical jump over lebron by 4 inches. and Kobe by 10…. The guy would leap from a foot outside the free throw line and dunk the ball….. He is one of the greatest athletes to ever play the game.
 
Did some long term conference standings projections for SEC hoops and it’s going to be a logjam between 7 bubble schools with A&M, Alabama, Ole Miss, Miss St, Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina. I have all 7 finishing anywhere between 8-10 and 11-7 in conference play and all of those teams will be interchangeable.

I have UT, Kentucky, and Auburn all finishing 14-4 in conference play at the top. Not even trying to figure out the tiebreakers.

Overall, I think if UT finishes 14-4 or better in conference play, we’re in line for atleast a 2 seed in March and should be in the mix for a 1 seed, given our SOS and wins and NET. 15-3 or better, and I think this is a 1 seed caliber resume for UT.
 
So I have to share even if they move it. I was trying to make a Knecht pic prior to the game and look at the comical crap Sally put on a poster.

Surprised to see Kansas only 4-3 in conference.

Road conference games in CBB are so freakin tough. We've already seen that this year.

Glad DK is a killer on the road. And March Madness is dealt with on neutral courts.
