What other message boards are saying (Post Game Uconn edition)

-Luckily I had to leave for a prior obligation at halftime.

-We need two things to compete: Money to buy players and a competent head coach that understands the game of football.

-At least we didn’t get shut out.

-None of this REALLY matters, but my biggest gripe is how they quit in the second half. Jackson Mitchell just watching their 8th string TE shuffle past him for a TD pass was embarrassing. Not sure why Mora didn’t at least let some young guys in the game who might give A F and provide effort

-They beat us up and down the field all day long and it’s pathetic.

-That was an absolute pasting.

-These money games are just going to continue to get worse.

-Mora’s coaching is absolutely brutal. I’m done.

-The bad news: We’re awful. The good news: Hoops coming up!

-Feeling pretty good about my $100 season ticket investment this year. Netted me one win and two free passes to a hockey game. I’m not sure what I enjoy more, watching this team lose weekly or in road games I watch on tv, hearing how good a 1-7 team is. Now if they only eliminated the scoreboard...

-Even though we got a big payday for going to Knoxville - you can't make up for the bad publicity of getting destroyed by a top 25 team . It just reinforces the image that we are exclusively a BB school
Also- how does this game build confidence with current and future players?

-I didn’t get to listen to the game today, but I saw the stats. How in the hell do we get beat that bad and have that much time of possession? 😂

-This coaching staff is BRUUUTAL.

-Tennessee were a bunch of men among boys today.

-Why did Heupel grin like that after he shook Mora’s hand? Was he being an *******?

-Thank God this season is almost over.

-I’m not sure why anyone expected that we had a prayer in this game today? We’re UCONN Football doing UCONN Football things.

-If we weren’t primarily a basketball school, I’m pretty sure we would be division 3.

-Another week and another loss. Some things never change.


I would not be surprised if Mora Junior uses the Connecticut job as a bridge to a bigger job at some point.

I'll believe it when I see it. It would be vintage Tennessee basketball to have a team peak in an exhibition game.

I think they'll be good, but the NCAAT is a crap shoot, and it seems like the dice are always cold when it's our turn.

This squad has the depth and potential to reach the second Elite 8 in school history and a good chance to reach the first Final Four in school history.

Tennessee Basketball is cursed about making Final Four, similar to how they are cursed about beating Florida in Football. It is a rarity to see either.
We were cursed in the SEC Tournament until 2 years ago; nothing’s gonna happen til it happens. 🏀

Yep, UT was voted as the most complete sports university in the country. We don’t suck at anything as far as revenue sports.
Got a link? I've checked ten websites and didn't find UT in the top ten of any of them. I did, however, find UConn listed on all of them, and at #1 on three of them.

What I saw was different. Seemed Heupel was the rude one to me. Walking up nonchalantly, smacking his chewing gum, not looking coach Mora in the eye. CJH seemed very disrespectful in that lopsided victory, and I felt a tad embarrassed by that. I would prefer our coach to be super humble and respectful to visiting coaches.

You must be looking in the wrong places. Both basketball programs made Sweet 16, football went 10-2 with an Orange Bowl victory and baseball made it to Omaha for the World Series. Danny White has won AD of the year back to back. If you’ve been paying attention, there’s no need for a link.

Hold on. You're the one who made the claim, and it was quite specific. I asked you for a source because I couldn't find it. Now you're telling me that I don't need a link if I'd "been paying attention"? Can you back it up or not?

Danny White just got voted AD of the year. That’s what that falls under and read the rest of the paragraph. What other school has done that in those 3 sports as a whole?

wow calling Castles 8th string is a bit silly but hilarious posts overall.
If we’re being honest, UConn had the best TE playing yesterday. That dude should hit the portal and get paid next year and I hope we’re offering!

It’s widely and commonly accepted among vol fans and most of the media this team is way deeper than those. If Tom Izzo is any indication, you should go back and read his quote after our exhibition.


Barnes is the king of regular season but in the tourney he’s very mediocre.

I guess some folks saw it differently...


BTW, IMHO, $1.8 million should be enough incentive to bring out gratitude from Jim Mora Jr before, during, AND after the game.....
