Well, you're a Bama fan, so I'll simplify it for you. We won a national championship in 1967 and 1998, 1+1=2, and when discussing popular "main" sports in college athletics, women's bball is just as deserving as men's baseball to be in that group.
1+1=1 (Bama and fake Vandy fan math)
I see a bunch of outrage, as Vandy comments tend to elicit on here.
But, I'm not seeing what's incorrect about the quote in the OP. The OP's own outraged response simply confirms the statement he was dismissing.

Referring to baseball as a "main sport" and winning a championship tantamount to winning one in football is it's own absurdity...Throw in the #Ourstate and their inferiority complex becomes even more clear...and yes, we could talk about our NC's in women's bball and men's track and field (both outdoor and indoor) and I know we won multiple championships when Gatlin was here but it's easier to just dismiss the crap for what it is.
If you get to count your fake NCs in football, don't ***** and moan when other schools do the same.
Some obscure poll (Dunkel or Litkenhouse) gave Dickey's '67 Vols a NC
Per Vandy: "In the main three sports (baseball, men's basketball, and football), Tennessee only has one national championship after 1965. #Ourstate"
I do believe Tennessee won a National Championship in football in 1998. Gosh those Nerds in Nashville are stupid. Guess that's why they are the only ones who consider their school top 20.
You know that I don't count Bama's terrible claim to 1941. So I'm not being hypocritical here. Tennessee did not win the national championship in 1967; USC did.
