He had to have known we were behind with how many catches he let up. Hell they beat us by beating him alone.

Satterfield was considered the most inept offensive coordinator in South Carolina history.. and Banks made him look like Sean Payton last night. How bad is Banks truly?? We are reaching all time levels

The UT fan on the couch was right.

Probably, seems to be the kid that always followed the rules and never had many confrontations based on his morals and how he was raised. Maybe hasn’t had the past experience to get past confrontation as quickly as others

He seems to be letting his new found fame get to his head a little bit…. Seems to be talking more trash and getting into more easily avoidable conflicts than he use too.

We have enough dissension-- I'm not looking to cause more. Things just aren't as unilateral as some might like. Situations are a sum of many variables that led to where we are. A team that was playing well but has played uncharacteristically poorly in two of the last three games, plus friction within a team are symptoms of a bigger problem. A simmering pot just boiled over, and now coaches have a mess to clean up. Another week or two and it could have played itself out. Instead, it cost UT a playoff spot.

I'm going to enjoy the holidays and be thankful for the many blessings I have. Happy Thanksgiving to all of VolNation.

Y’all think it was his knee? Watched a couple of times and couldn’t really tell. Didn’t look like his knee buckled or hyper extended?

ACL.

 

[Big Orange#1]

Can we stop Vanderbilt? Serious question.

After two years of watching Banks and Martinez pass defense what do you think?

 

[volbeast33]

So our best linebacker stepped on the T and our coaches thought it was ok to leave our best linebacker at home to get abused. Real freaking smart

That same comment online involved him getting a broken jaw…. Is that accurate?

 

[Enki_Amenra]

ACL.

Looked like mcl

With a team, it rarely is unilateral. I played soccer, which has a significantly smaller roster, and that was never perfect. Competitiveness enters, weaknesses become consistent on film and blame games are played. Leadership can dissolve it but at the end of the day, it's on the individual to take criticism as a positive.

 

[volbeast33]

Hooker didn't do anything...All Banks

Just tell us exactly what happened

 

[RikidyBones]

Now I gotta go take family Christmas pictures even though I'm dead inside. Thanks Vol football.

 

[bigl3327]

I love the Vols, but I don't like a lot of Vol "fans". That's all today.

 

[BJHSVol]

Or our best linebacker broke and a team rule and when confronted by a team leader instead get in his face instead of showing accountability.

There’s no quicker way to lose a culture and cause locker room issues than by selectively enforcing rules based on how good a player is

[volbeast33]

Can we bring back Ansley pls thanks

WTH????? Are you serious?

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Please dont let this boil over into a loss next week. Right now it seems like the perfect storm. Lost of turmoil in Knoxville, Vandy coming in highly motivated and with everything to play for.

 

[peaygolf]

Just tell us exactly what happened

I'll get some here that will bash me.................but I'm not going to break the trust of my friend.
All I'll say is Banks has some issues. A lot of the rumors are 100% accurate.

 

[VolGee4]

It wouldn't be surprising to see UGA get the Peach Bowl, LSU the Sugar and Bama the Orange, with no SEC teams in the Fiesta, Rose or Cotton. UT opened the door to that scenario, not with two losses per se but because of the way the Vols played.

Of course…LSU gets the Sugar with 3 losses. This conference sucks.

 

[MarcoVol]

This is worse than any defense fielded besides maybe sunseri but it might be worse. I stopped watching the second half of the 2012 Sunseri debacle also because it wasn’t good for my health

I wouldn’t lose sight of the fact we’ve beaten Bama and FL this year. We’re 9-2. Things have been far worse.

 

[Devo182]

Can we all just take a moment to step back and consider what people are arguing over?

We're literally arguing over the fact that we failed to make the playoffs...in year 2...

That is nuts that we're even discussing it. People can pour over the reasons we didn't, but how about ALL the reasons we EARNED being in the discussion to begin with? We did an unimaginable amount of good this season to even put ourselves up there. And we have restored our brand to one of prominence and importance moving forward. That is yuuuge, as were those accomplishments.

I one hundred percent agree as long as we beat vandy
