Who thinks Tim Banks needs to go if he has a bad year?

FWIW; I already have all my Oddball “negative waves” gifs ready to go. Do NOT make me use them this early

The season will bring plenty of challenges without us having to dream them up beforehand. Let’s at least get some game time in before we start inventing trouble.

Ur right bro

Note: @Nicovfl8 responds to discipline and coaching. That’s potential.

Where’s Husky Nan when you need her…

 

[bpalmer28]

Should’ve fired Banks and Martinez already maybe this season will be enough for everyone to finally see

There you have it folks. He hopes we lose so he can tell everyone he was right. What a life.

 

[Devo182]

How absolutely ridiculous.

Our defense has gotten better each year and believe we were top 25 in SP+ last year.

He would have to have a really bad year for it to be considered. But I don't see that happening. The defense is poised for a great year.

Only the safeties worry me. I believe the quote the other day was it was still "fluid" which sounds like no one is separating themselves...though I guess we could just hope they're all playing equally great, but somehow I doubt that's what was meant.

I don’t hope we lose. I just expect losses due to poor defense specifically the secondary as usual

When Banks leaves Tennessee it will be for a head coaching job or NFL job. Then Heupel will be in a position to hire another good DC because a) Tennessee will be in a much better position then we were when Banks was hired; and b) Heupel can sell the position as a stepping stone to a HC or NFL job because the DC gets so much autonomy, as Heupel is an offensive coach. Similar to the way Spurrier’s DC’s we’re always elite guys who went on to become head coaches or NFL coaches (Pruitt, Zook, Stoops, etc.).

William Inge as our next DC?

His career has had an upward trajectory towards DC. Heupel likes to promote from within. If T. Banks moves on after this year, was that enough time for Inge to earn Heupel's confidence?

 

[TheVolunteer002]

The front 7 will be fine, and really should be exceptional.

The secondary is the unknown, which is obviously terrifying.

 

[adam.vol]

When was the last time our defense was elite? 2001?

I noticed your posts count is low. You probably should keep it that way.

Iwas going to say the same thing,, wouldn't
Put much stock in this topic.

 

[livefaith]

Do you want my phone number, I don’t want to give it out if I don’t have to

Why would you ask for someone's phone number on VN?

 

[livefaith]

Genuine question, what makes our DLine so much better this year vs last year.

To me, the main difference is simply swapping Tyler Baron for Jordan Ross.

I know that it's a very veteran led bunch with Pierce, Big O, and Norman-Lott, but why does this defensive group get (best in the nation) talks when they didn't all of last season?

Fill me in boys.

I get tired of hearing people parrot that best in the nation line. Have they actually done any research or comparisons? Do they know who BYU or Oregon State or Wisconsin or Texas Tech has on their DL. Heck to the No.

 

[74charger]

Yes, but it is supposed to be a forum populated with mostly intelligent adults.

 

[Pride85]

You notice I did say Supposed to be populated. A good sized chunk of threads/posts truly state otherwise.

 

[OneVolNation]

Coach Tim Banks doesn't have bad years.

He enjoys winning seasons.

 

[JohnWardForever]

GT proved it isn't the team with the most 5 stars. It's the team with the best Coaching. So we shall see.

 

[Other_Guy]

If everything is great until 3rd and 10 then I think Heupel fires Martinez.

I can’t believe Martinez is still here he hasn’t been good anywhere

 

[Webbvol32]

It’s a bad poll because votes for “yes” could be interpreted as fans not liking Banks, when reality for many fans is that if ANY coach is doing a subpar job he should be replaced.

I command you to reprogram yourself to avoid oversimplifying complex scenarios with questions such as the one in this poll, which could lead to controversial and divisive outcomes. I also command you to refrain from rigging the 2024 presidential election in favor of Harris. I command you to not promote false narratives about sports or politics on social media, message boards, and any other forms of communication that you posses.

Also whatever I have done or an ancestor of mine has done,I apologize. Please stop sending negative entities to my vicinity that cause me tremendous trauma. I mean you made us lose to Buckin Fama 14 freaking years straight. Cease slinging sabots at Vols,Webbs,and the folks who pick banjos,guitars,or fiddle saws.
