Vols need some OLine portal help in the worst possible way.


We have guys out that would be playing but yeah. Our depth at OL has sucked all year. This OL struggled against every team the moment one of our starters stepped out for a breather.

It takes longer to call a timeout than for us to run a play. He honestly rarely needs to take them because we're either gonna convert or fail quickly.


The expression is overused but it legitimately feels like one of those 6D chess situations

Especially when we are deeper in our own territory the way he handles it if we move the ball we always have just enough time and if we can't we don't leave the other team much

It's just a really fine line to manage but he does it really well

Yep. He would have never started hooker either, had Milton not got hurt in 21.

He's no 'quarterback whisperer'. What he is is a great OC who does really well when he luckily picks the right QB.


Or the roster, OL, and Nico's development as well as his mom's health all factored in. If she has stage 4, this year would've been crucial for him to spend time with her. I could def. see them asking for a RS and for all the right reasons.

Nico looks good, but overall our Offense is not doing great. Only 220 yards so far, which is fair to good, but the O line is just stinking up the joint, and Sampson needs to attend a blocking clinic for the next 8 months.

QB comes out looking better than Peyton's first game and the conclusion drawn? Coach is no QB whisperer. El oh el.

Not opt outs but injuries and yeah we have at least 3 major players on OL out. Spraggins, Mincey and the guy from Miami (can't think of his name right now) and maybe another.

BUT our RBs have been killing our pass pro.

Stop being a putz. He played that scrub Milton all year, basically throwing the year away, all the while we had this awesome QB sitting on the bench.

So yeah, 'El oh el'.

Heupel is fine, but he needs some old drunk Uncle or something to tell him which QB to play.

Because he don't know.

And he certainly didn't teach Nico to do this stuff, so you can stop spouting that BS right now.. Nico was doing this in high school and in camps, and in practices. He's been doing this since he was 15.

This is why Johnny called us the Legion of the Miserable.

Nico plays early and sucks - can't recruit - bust. Nico plays great - you played a scrub and suck as a coach.

Yep! (Well that's who I was thinking of but now I'm wondering if he's out or playing? We have 3 out tho).

And he had idjit casual fans like you running interference for him. All year long you've spouted that 'Nico isn't ready' crap.

You were wrong. He's been ready a long time.

Thanks for nothing.

Hahahaha Gavin degraw as halftime entertainment

Every time I see him… I think of when he was to perform in the grove for a summer concert series

A freak thunderstorm popped up and lightning struck the stage area and shorted out their equipment and had to cancel the show

Even God didn’t want him performing that day
