The baseball team is frustrating because they were so good last year. Like generationally elite.

Hard to have the major drop off.

It just fees so much worse.

The pitching is the weirdest part.

That and the fact that this team has yet to show gradual improvement in any facet of the game. Rather, they just keep getting worse. I'm NOT saying that Vitello needs to be fired or on the hot seat, but I'm really disappointed in how he's handled this year's team. None of the players look like they want to be out there.

I sincerely don’t think it’s Tony. I thinks it is more on the players.

 

[Wickman]

Tony V isn’t causing basic high school errors in the field and missing spots like crazy

 

[mr.checkerboards]

So, I didn't see the press conference yesterday and I'm not going back through the pages, but Hamlin basically confirmed what happened was a freak accident. Extremely scary stuff.

Ten student-athletes on the Vols’ 2022 roster were selected during the MLB draft.

• OF Drew Gilbert – Houston Astros – First Round – No. 28 Overall
• OF Jordan Beck – Colorado Rockies – First Round (Competitive Balance Round A) – No. 38
• RHP Blade Tidwell – New York Mets – Second Round – No. 52
• 3B Trey Lipscomb – Washington Nationals – Third Round – No. 84
• RHP Ben Joyce – Los Angeles Angels – Third Round – No. 89
• LHP Will Mabrey – Arizona Diamondbacks – Sixth Round – No. 168
• 2B Jorel Ortega – Minnesota Twins– Sixth Round – No. 174
• OF Seth Stephenson – Detroit Tigers– Seventh Round – No. 207
• RHP Mark McLaughlin – Chicago White Sox– Seventh Round – No. 221
• SS Cortland Lawson – Washington Nationals – 14th Round – No. 411

For a baseball team that's a LOT of attrition, granted 4 were pitchers, but that's just the guys that were selected during the MLB draft too.

Evan Russell and Luc Lipcius also are gone. So a baseball team that fields 9 field players lost 8 of them in one off-season.

Don’t like them odds

Sometimes I totally forget this guy was ever our coach.

post of the year. therepeutic.

 

[Weezer]

If I get hit, I'm suing NASA.

 

[SweetasSoda]

Sometimes I totally forget this guy was ever our coach.

That’s because he was never “our” coach. Never felt like he belonged. Thought I just felt that way because he was totally AL, but he never tried to belong. Just like Kiffin he only used us. He did manage to recruit good players, but we see how he totally messed that up.

 

[SweetasSoda]

And I absolutely love that Pruitt is walking in there knowing the amazing coach we replaced him with actually beat his loaded precious AL team last year knocking them out of the playoffs!!

 

[Leeleesteeth]

I really believe Pruitt wanted the UT job to audition for the Alabama job. Don't ask for what you want because you might get it.

How can you forget that?

He and Butch are mentioned on VN ad nauseam.......living in the heads of many, rent free.

 

[LA Vol]

So apropos that the Vols march into the NCAA compound locked and loaded to reduce that Failure to Monitor violation on #GoOrangeDay.

 

[Orangeburst]

DW and Greg Sankey showed up to the hearing together today. That’s a good sign.

Maybe Danny gave Greg a McDonalds sack of money to help..lol

 

[Wickman]

If someone had brought Pruitt a McDonald’s breakfast I would have lost it.

Hopefully it lands in Tuscaloosa thinking the Trailer Parks are landing pads.

We got the reacharound in before breakfast.

Things should go smoothly now.

 

[Devo182]

I see something like this nearly every day on my way to work. It doesn't even look real sometimes with all the striations of colors.

Something crazy is in the blue ridge mountain skies...chemtrails or whatever...
