Make it to the SECCG and i'll say they are back and rising. It's going to be a while fwiw.

You are correct. When you lose to Ole Miss, you have hit the bottom.

At minimum a 10 win season and SEC East title.

Until that happens there's no way you can argue Tennessee is legit again.

Going from like 5-7 bad to 8-5 mediocre is a step, but not exactly fear inducing.

I can't speak for anyone else but I'll say it for $50. $60 if you want me not to laugh.

Winning the SEC would certainly do it. 1998 was a long time ago. 16 seasons without a championship.

A 10 win season with a win over Alabama (the 2012 Texas A&M model) might do it.

Winning the East and getting drilled by the West in the SECCG (the Missouri model) probably wouldn't be enough.

9 game losing streak to UF
8 game losing streak to Bama
5 game losing streak to UGA
1 game in a row win against Vandy

Something has got to change before you can be considered on the rise , much less back.

That just means UT is competitive again. They've got to win the conference to be considered "back" in the eyes of their main rivals. It's been a long time since UT hoisted that SEC trophy.
