Why are people mad at Heupel?

And others don’t understand the game.

Additionally, the age of instant gratification and a false sense of entitlement

Three letters: B.V.S. Some of the most vocal amongst us can’t be happy or encouraged because chaos and letdown is all they know.

As a flawless being, I expect flawless perfection of coaches, kids and Volnation brethren. When perfection is not met, my self-righteous rage flows through me until perfection is restored. Your thoughts?

A lot of it seems like backlash from fans that took the trip to Columbus. Wasted their money because Tennessee has traditionally fallen flat in big-time road games (frankly, most teams do).

I have seen many people getting upset at Heupel for not firing his staff, but he has not had to. The defense has improved, so he has not had to fire anyone on that side of the ball. On the offensive side, we have regressed, but we had a QB last year that could not hit a mid-range ball and a Qb this year in his first year of playing and he rarely hit deep balls. This severely limits offensive playcalling and gives defensive an advantage because they do not have to worry about the deep ball, etc. Also, I am just going to say Heupel's achievements so far again.

Came into a 3-7 team with the entire team transferred out and scholarship limitations (that we still have)
Only UT coach to beat Saban and ended the 15-year streak against the former Heisman-winning QB.
Ended the streak vs Florida
Undefeated vs Florida and Bama at home
Two #1 rated Qb out of highschool in the last 3 classes.
Has had two top ten recruiting classes which is the best sense 2014 and 2015.
First TN coach to make playoffs
One loss at home in last 3 years.

I know we got blown out by OSU and are losing players in the transfer portal. But, I trust Heupel running the program

Only idiots are mad at Heupel.

Because some people are just dumbarses.

And others are trolls.

Johnny Majors accurately and eloquently described that faction of our fanbase long ago as the "Legions of the Miserable."

Nico had more time than Hendon did. He held the ball almostva second longer.

Hooker was a senior his 2 seasons with us and Nico is a Freshman that is 11-3 as a starter. 1 bowl win.

Doesn't change the fact that he held the ball 1 second longer than Hendon did.

Point of the post is about the OL, the OL in 2024 gave Nico more time than the 2022 OL gave Hendon. It is not about what Nico did with that time.....
