| The SECrants thoughts on Tennessee football Posted by Wishnitwas1998 I find myself wondering if we are in a permanent downfall or just the natural cycle of things and was wondering what the rants (serious and honest) thoughts on this are (yes I know this is like the 300th thread on this subject). Normally I would say this is just part of the cycle but there are a few things that have me concerned:  on 4/7 at 11:45 pm1. This isn't 1995 anymore. We don't have the advantage in TV exposure that UT use to. Most every SEC teams game's are on tv whether your bama or Vandy. 2. Recruiting. Obviously the state of Tenn is not loaded with talent so we use to make up for that by raiding states accross the country such as Georgia and South Carolina. Now a days, Georgia has done a much better job of keeping us out while USC is much more difficult to recruit against than they use to be. 3. Coaching. I know a program can come back from one bad coaching hire but we are looking at 2 in a row and possibly three if we don't find a good one after Dooley (and im not sure we will). Bad hires can set a program back a LONG way (see: Ole Miss). 4. Simple competition. In the 90s we needed to beat UF and that's it we had won the east. Now of course, before then UGA was very good at times but now to win the east we have to contend with UF/UGA/USC/and possibly Mizzou in the future meanwhile Vandy is improving and the west is almost unbeatable. I know, tl,dr but my basic question: is this part of the cycle or are we going to be down for a long time (15-20 yrs) This post was edited on 4/7 at 11:47 pm Reply • Back to Top |

| Any chance you guys get rid of that ridiculous, disgusting neon orange? Probably about the same odds of Tyler Bray getting rid of those obnoxious back tattoos, so it's unlikely. Anyway, what were we talking about? Oh yeah- UT being relevant again someday. Nah. Reply • Back to Top |

quote: "Oh how the mighty have fallen." If you ask around I think you'll find that most SC fans don't fool themselves into thinking they've replaced UT as being the top 3 in the East. Most expect UT to be back at some point or another. We just hope by the time that happens we'll be well established and a legit East contender consistently. Reply • Back to Top |
