Brace yourselves for the Big Orange pain train.

quote:

Several way-too-early polls and individual analysts are predicting the Vols to win the SEC Eastern Division championship in 2016, and ESPN’s initial Football Power Index (FPI) rated the Vols fifth nationally.

There will be nowhere for Tennessee to hide from the expectations, but Vols coach Butch Jones told a crowd in the Tennessee Theater on Wednesday night that they aren’t planning to try.


quote:

“We’re not gonna hide from these expectations,” Jones told the crowd on the first leg of Tennessee’s statewide recruiting celebration tour. This is what we expect, and this is what we work for. We’re Tennessee.”

Two things:

1. Was he supposed to say the opposite, that they don't want high expectations? I mean they've already got them so may as well live with it and hope for the best

2. Y'all are so success starved that you have a statewide recruiting celebration your for a 14th ranked class?

And Ole Miss will beat everyone in the west and still find a way to choke off the SECCG.

Yes, we did the same thing with the last 2 classes. We needed an excuse to throw a party, problem with that?

Butch caught a lot of shite on here for trying to temper last year's hype and saying VOLS were still a year away.

VOLS have done this for as long as I can remember dating back to the Fulmer days. They always have a recruiting celebration in Knoxville, Nashville and Memphis in the days following NSD.

My guess is they're trying to reach the untouched masses up in them hills that electricity and telegraph wires haven't quite made it to yet

It's actually pretty awesome. Sit down with a couple beers and listen to the coaches break down film of each recruit.

And Alabama will make it 10 straight. Florida will push it to 12 in a row, 25 out of the last 30.

Would bookmark stuff like this, but we all know this poster will probably be on his 4th or 5th account by then.

Every single Tennessee fan took a loss in that thread yesterday, similar to how UT has taken one for the last 11 years against Florida.

And weren't you the one who excoriated some of the VOLS posters for using redundant talking points?
