The only bad thing about being good in basketball... Getting Vitale as the color guy.

I will meet you at the South Knox or Seymour Waffle House anytime. Why don't you just let it go for one night? We get it. You think all of us loving on Peyton the day he is announced in the HOF is funny. If TB wins today, you can continue to tout your boy, then. Good grief.

He was terrible. I get it over the years he pumped up UK because they always had the talent and success. But they are terrible this year but it was still all UK all the time. His reaction to their 10 point second half lead was exactly like the fans, big energy. Then We come roaring back and he acts like he needs a nap (just like their fans). Just sad.

we lost to Ole Miss, likely will fall to 18 or new rankings. really, what happens in reg season is inconsequential, unless you win conference...SEC tourney is the big one. Gotta ball out.

Beating your rival is always awesome. But they really arent very good this year. This team has to learn to win, and I think last night was nice step forward. Great to see our heralded frosh step forward, as our upper classmen fall asleep at times.

Prior to last night there were times frosh fell asleep too. SV just might as well not be out there at times.

Good win.

I don't like losing either and we had no business losing that ole Miss game.

But I'm taking in terms of the State of the program more than I am any single season..

No one should legit be complaining about Barnes and the job he's doing for this program... It's just silly.

Barnes has same Pruitt mentality of 'this is it, get over it'. Works for him.

Glad he let them run a little bit last night. Paid dividends.

I watched the game late last night before going to bed which is not always a good thing cause watching them can keep you up all night. lol I love the aggressiveness that Johnson and Springer brought to the game last night. Two Freshman carried that game for the Vols which was awesome to watch. Of course the refs were their normal self's calling ticky tacky fouls but even through that the Vols overcame the refs and UK. There were several outstanding plays from both Springer and Johnson but one in particular that I really appreciated and that was when Johnson had just made a bad decision on a shot that UK rebounded and drove back down the court and about the time the guy was about to shoot Johnson came in from behind and blocked it and UT stole it and turned into two points. Just great hustle by Johnson. Springer was just impressive. Great win by our Vols GBO!!!

I agree. I cannot stand to listen to cheerleader announcers/analysts. Vitale has been ESPN's carnival barker way too long. ESPN has been in layoff/termination mode for many years now and they seemingly will not admit to themselves why they are failing. Disney continues to prop them up to keep the agenda and narrative building going. Meanwhile the talent drain has been massive and makes them unwatchable or at least wanting to turn the volume down.

It was annoying how much he was making excuses for UK....

 

[Orange Studs]

As soon as our DC gets through coaching in the SB he will get introduced and I hope some of the new D staff also gets announced.

We need to find a Waffle House large enough to hold a VN convention.

If we could just find a Waffle House with a basement. Volnation Fight Club.

 

[GiggerVol]

Oh wow keep us updated about his status if you don’t mind. I’ve met him a handful of times. I played for his son in HS

I will try and remember that. As a side note, my 2nd cousin cousin plays for them now and pulled a groin running to 2nd on a double in their opener Fri. Gonna miss a few weeks. He transferred from ETSU after last season.

If you build it, we will come. And so will Wayne Chism.

Eh, he's always fed off the crowd. He's a home team announcer no matter where he goes.

Pretty irrelevant

Show me CFP star rankings.

Who’s buying?

Where the Conklin stuff from yesterday come from? Be random to leave a Hc job that he appears to be pretty good at for a DC job but then again money is more and can get bigger Hc job faster maybe. I recall him being pretty highly regarded. His philosophy matches what JH wants on that side of the ball. A defense that gets after QB and causes turnovers.

Their season literally starts in 2 weeks why would he leave now?

If you haven’t already, watch the Rodney Scott episode of Chefs Table: BBQ on Netflix. Scott’s BBQ in Hemingway was started by Rodneys father. Rodney worked there for years growing up but eventually moved to Charleston and opened his own restaurant: Rodney Scott BBQ. Best whole hog BBQ I’ve ever had.

Yes I loved that whole series. That woman in Texas that just cooks on Saturday, unbelievable. I will have to try his restaurants next.
