[Ulysees E. McGill]

This really is a true statement, this is just year two.

What he and the staff are doing, with this roster...makes no sense...

He just took an offensive roster made up of one highly coveted offensive lineman (Wright) and a bunch of undeveloped "diamond in the rough" type guys at every position, along with a few unwanted and forgotten players off of the portal scrap heap...and scored more points than Bama has given up since 1907 and set records...

I don't think people really understand the magnitude of how great a coaching job this is.


It makes no sense....at all..

If Heupel and staff can do this with scraps, what could they accomplish with a roster like Bama, UGA or OSUs?

226.1 QBR?!?!

In the biggest game of his career?! Against Alabama?!

That's INSANE

 

[volsagain]

A couple of thoughts on Henry T..

1.) Tennessee was in decay when he opted for a move to a healthy program.
2.) He no longer desired to be a Vol, which further defines what a true VFL is.. and what it’s not.

Leave him be.. we want VFL’s in our program.

Did you see that rats a$$ after the tackle on Hooker ? Gave him the knee 3or 4 times while he was trying to get up. Should have been a penilty .

You might think Jalin Hyatt is now famous after that game. You'd be wrong. The real winner... Jeremiah Crawford and the puke heard round Twitter lol.

 

[SmokinBob]

We gotta get this man on the jumbotron for third downs on defense. Make it so, Danny.

He was on the jumbotron!

I don't condone it, neither, at all...I truly dont; i prefer class and humility, I truly do, even though I fall short of those marks most times...

HOWEVER!!!, my thoughts and feelings have leaned scorched earth for a long time now. I want to lay waste...to EVERYTHING and EVERYONE!!! They ALL kicked us while we were down, they spit on us, pissed on us, sh!t on us; and, put their cigarettes out on our foreheads. We were the butt of EVERYONE'S jokes, and the whipping post that made journalists famous with clicks and laughter, punchlines and headlines.

It's weird, in my younger years, I wouldn't have loved it as much; but, now, as I'm older, after EVERYTHING, I do...I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE DOUBLE GAULDENS AND THE BECK...TO THE ENTIRE SPORTS WORLD.

Lay it to waste, BIG ORANGE; and, **** Bama forever and always!!!

PREACH

 

[InVOLuntary]

Heupel out coached the Supreme midget. Yes, I said it.

Scorched earth is how it needs to be. Make it nasty.

Well it's Sunday morning and myself and Doc are 50 pages behind! Sweet that Nickie and Alabama are having to settle for moral victory of still being able to win the west!! So AWESOME!!

 

[Smyrna ATL Vol]

Well I feel like s*** but I couldn’t be happier. If anyone was at the battery last night, yes I was one of the crazy Vol fans you saw going nuts. Loved lighting that damn cigar. What a freaking game.

All time tough guy sh*t lol

You gotta be psychotic to play in the trenches in this league. My man wasn’t gonna be denied. Respect.


We got a culture going right now. Finally.

good article

Yes. But I sip expensive whiskey, don't chug cheap beer!

 

[volbeast33]

I don't condone this behavior either but this is the same fanbase that has waltzed into our stadium plenty of times during this dark age and had the time of their life. Smugly lighting cigars while the game is still happening in OUR stadium. Rammer Jammering themselves into a jolly stupor, waving our fans out of our own stadium. How many times? Buying up all the seats and arrogantly having the time of their lives.

Hiring our old coaches and rubbing it in our face. Year after year after year. Taking pride in all of those things.

So forgive some of our fans for letting it out when they saw those smug Bama fans bragging about bringing cigars to the stadium and acting like they were gonna put us in our place.

Especially for the Alabama fans born and raised in Tennessee…. I hate those people!!!

 

[RikidyBones]

*Not condoning this treatment of other team's fans, just thought the Saban statue meme was funny*

I condone it. Dgaf. She can thank all the dumb gumps over the last decade for that type of energy.

 

[volfanCLT]

I’m 32 years old and that was the greatest game/experience of my adult sports life. It’s weird not being able to explain to non-Tennessee fans what that win meant. Not just #6 over #3. You had to have lived through the last decade and a half of hell. I imagine many of us, myself included, were pretty emotional after that one.

It really is hard to explain. Love this team. Legends

 

[Outofmyvolcanmind]

BY nearly passed for 500 tonight. Didn't matter.

Exactly. Who cares. Every QB can have a career day for all I care. Just win!

 

[gainesvol82]

Been meaning to post this since…at least the Florida game? As much deserved flak as our defense takes, mobile quarterbacks are no longer the bane of our existence. Last season’s defense gives up 100+ and at least two TD’s to Young. Most likely 200 to Daniels and 150 to Richardson.

Defensive coaching has been fantastic. We just don't have the horses in the secondary and are depleted as well but all phases of our team are well coached and will be elite after a couple more recruiting classes or several Big Time transfers.

 

[SugarCC]

There’s a clip from the locker room if I believe P Fant quoting Henry T then puffing the cigar.

It's the best! The way Fant looks in that clip, no doubt who he's talking to. Then he waves.

 

[Rizzo924]

He had "Dixieland Delight" ready to play too.

The athletic dept doesn’t miss. DW is one of a kind

Need to change the 3rd quarter song! We have TONS of TN options to represent! I'm sick of hearing an OK guy sing in that spot! Back Where I Come From! is my choice but anything connected to our roots would be 1,000 times better!

 

[Salvare]

It's such a great day to be a Tennessee VOL!

 

[RikidyBones]

DL has been fantastic. Need better horses there but proud of those guys.

Lbers have improved. Keep grinding.

Secondary is placed in contradictory zones coverages. 6 man blitz but a cover 3 or 4 while starting 10 yards back isn't my preference.

this might be the best definition of last night and the mindset of our team... end of the game, trading blows for four quarters... and this kid pukes, and then nods at the onlooking bama players as if to say "yeah we still coming"...
