If Dooley hires the right staff Tennessee could be dangerous.
If Butch hires the right staff Tennessee could be dangerous.
If Pruitt hires the right staff Tennessee could be dangerous.
If Huepel hires the right staff Tennessee could be dangerous.
Realizing what I win on Saturday would mean to me. My father worked for the University of Tennessee for 25 years. The first game attended in Neyland was in 1998. I was there the last time they beat Alabama in 2006. This grown man might cry real tears. Please, God.
Ok, let’s put it out there. Georgia is clearly the better team. I’m still loving this team and absolutely do not fear Missouri, South Carolina, or Vanderbilt. I understand being disappointed. No participation trophies, but I’m glad we finally have a reason to be disappointed.
I don’t know what’s going to happen on the field. This much I do know: I’ve been a Vol my entire life and I remember 1998…but I’ve never felt like this before. This doesn’t feel like ‘98. It feels like ‘22.

“Are you on Tony Vitello’s staff? Like scouting?”
No. No, I’m not, kid. But I would give you a scholarship if I could just for asking.
Derek Dooley’s father won a National Championship at Georgia. Derek grew up around the SEC and winning is in his blood! Don’t worry about his 17-20 record at La Tech; La Tech isn’t Tennessee. He’ll get this thing back on track.
Me casually living in St. Louis:
My coworkers: Yeah, we went to high school with Tony Vitello. His dad was our baseball coach. How do you know who he is? What’s he doing now?
Me: !!!!!!!
Butch Jones won consecutive Big East championships at Cincinnati and won 11 games at Central Michigan! Imagine what he’s going to do at a place like Tennessee! Unlike the Dooley hire, Jones is already a proven winner. We’ve found our guy.

Danny, I freaking love you. Wish I had the words. You’re one of us and we see it. Thanks for listening. Thanks for actually caring. It means more than I can express.
P.S.
I’ve been texting all my buddies. They all agree.

I met Peyton Manning in a Fayetteville, Arkansas hotel lobby in 1995. He was surrounded by at least 10 BEAUTIFUL women. I, all of 6 years old, walked right up and asked for his autograph. A collective “AWWW” simultaneously came from his crowded admirers. Peyton, you’re welcome.
The irony of Tennessee winning the Bahamas tourney on the eve of the Schiano Sunday anniversary…Bahama John Currie is rolling in his grave right now. And by grave I mean Wake Forest.

He has a source in the room. No way he would be able to predict or defend such nonsense if he didn’t. Gotta give it to him, he knew exactly what was going to happen.

Beamer: “…Yeah, fine. Good game.”

Dear Alabama fans,
If you’re so proud about being “the standard”, please stop bitching about being “the standard”. Yes, we’re excited we beat you. Stop acting like you don’t care. You do, and your asses are bleeding.
October 21, 2006. Tennessee defeated Alabama by a score of 13-16. That was the last game I ever attended in person with my father. What I would give to be in Neyland Stadium with him one more time.
They did it, Dad. And they ain’t done yet.

I want to dislike you but you’re making it difficult for me.
Was there 2 years ago and folks were were incredibly hospitable and kind. Looking forward to being there.
