The bigger question is what direction Tennessee now turns. This is a school leaking prestige and reeking of unrealistic entitlement.

A delusional fan base believed it was going to land Jon Gruden as its football coach in 2012. Instead it wound up being snubbed by Louisville coach Charlie Strong. Tennessee ended up with a good hire in Butch Jones, but you would have thought the school was settling for the guy at Lenoir-Rhyne by the reaction.

If the same deluded thought process holds, Vols fans will be expecting Shaka Smart to crawl to Knoxville any minute. Or Gregg Marshall to take a pay cut to coach the Vols.

Reality is, turmoil-ridden Tennessee has to prove itself to a quality coach now. Not the other way around.

Tennessee has made 7 NCAA Tourneys and 4 sweet 16s since 2006. Seems we have clearly been the third best team in the league in the last 10 years.

Y'all want to know how bad it is? I actually had to stop and think for a second when I saw a Vandy fan posted this. I honestly couldn't decide if I still considered Tennessee a "rival" in the emotional sense. My reaction has less to do with relative success -- we're still Vandy, after all -- than with not really feeling that Tennessee adds enough to any rivalry at the current time to have particularly strong feelings on the matter.

Just read it. Forde has been right on the money lately. First the Calipari article, now this!

Yeah wanting to win is so unrealistic and entitled. No fan should ever want to win or dare criticize a coach even when it's justified, especially not when there's a roster full of talent.
