What happened to Swain. I listened way back in the TSR days here and there. He was decent then. Now he's brutal and I can't even turn him on at all. It's like he hates his old school ha

Why do we get jerkwads like him. Why can't we just have unapologetic, unabashed homers like every other team in college football?

National media hates us. Local media hates us. Knoxville police hate us. Refs hate us. SEC hates us. NCAA hates us. Every CFB fan hates us. Former coaches hate us. Former players hate us.

My UK buddy who takes me to UK/UT every time they play in Lexington is a project engineer with Calhoun Construction Services who did the facility and tennis facility etc. Pics look pretty decent. I'm bringing him to the hill this fall for the annual beat down. He's pretty cool for a Cat fan. He believes every year they'll get us. Poor guy.

The new facility is very clean, nothing spectacular, but very nice. Lexington overall is a nice college town. Much better than towns like awbarn, storkville and tuskaloser. Not on the level of Athens and Knoxville though.

Lol. I don't think it's blood pressure. He's in the sun all day and probably never wears sunscreen.

Maybe it was just me, but Matt Kuchar looked like he had been in an oven in his interview yesterday after his fourth round. The sun can literally wear you out.

I know I know, but man I have lived in five SEC states, that is a lot of different sports radio and media I've been exposed to. I am not exaggerating at all. We have the most negative local media, including alums in the SEC. It's not even close. And it has always been that way.

I agree with you. It's weird how both the local media and even former players seem to have an axe to grind with UT.

Whereas just about every other major SEC team gets unbelievably positive coverage and treatment from local reporters and alumni.

Mannnnn, I'm over here all alone liking Swain's show. He's generally positive for UT.

I generally like his show because it is mainly focused on UT and SEC sports.
It's a new station with a small budget.
Compare that to the big money frog statins morning show.
It is horrid and they think they are a national show often discussing things nobody cares about.

It is an absolute truth. I think it is our fault. We allow it by funding them. Too many fans defend, and admire them for being "objective". Fans of Every other SEC school are different. They do not support media they feel are picking at their programs. The only time it is acceptable, is when the fans themselves are overall negative towards the coaching staffs.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but I've watched Tennessee lose to UF at Neyland in 96, 2000, 02, 06, 10, 12, and 14. I've never seen a victory against them here. My wife got me tickets to UF for my birthday this year
