10K fans for every win you'll have this year.

Jesus, Tenn just needs to up and go to the ACC. Every single thing they are "proud" about some other SEC school does better.
"We have such great recruiting!" - but not better than Bama you play every year
"We have such a big stadium" - but is a piece of shite compared to many in the SEC
"We have so many loyal fans" - that would only impress the Ivy League.
I am completely honest, it feels like us in the Big 12 where anything we did the response was "Ok great, now yall are the SECOND best in Texas on that metric."
Tenn needs a new conference to reset the table and lower the bar so this sort of stuff can actually be impressive.

He's responsible for pushing that number up to 40,000. Otherwise only 39,980 seats would've been occupied.

Butch seems like the kind of coach that is desperate for the fans to like him.

Actually compared to the poors in the SEC we look amazing. Biggest enrollment, biggest endowment, soon to have the best and biggest stadium, along with the best facilities and some of the best academics.
That is what I am saying. Compared to Texas we were so-so. Compared to Tennessee and Mississippi State we kick arse.
Yall need a fresh perspective. Compared to a Wake Forest or even a Clemson would make yall seem like monsters.

By the time the Bama game rolls around, that's all you guys will have.
Don't worry though, we'll fill the stadium up again for ya.

I gotta give it to Butch, he's brought some energy and excitement back to UT.

Not a bad idea with all those young players. Gives them a chance to play in front of a large crowd.
