Hope this puts an end to the “sources” that Vitello is leaving after the CWS.

I don’t see why he would leave. He’s built something great there and he is an incredible coach.

Me neither. He IS Tennessee baseball. He has single handedly built Tennessee into one of the elites.

Pre-Vitello, Tennessee was a shite place to coach with no support, and poor baseball facilities. I used to view UT as a place a coach was hired just to get fired. I thought he was crazy to leave Arkansas as an assistant to go to UT, even as a HC due to everything I just mentioned.

I'm an unabashed Vitello fan. People can say what they want about him, but he's a hellacious coach and recruiter.

I Don't know if he is leaving or not leaving but every coach says the same type of thing right before they leave! You just cant go by what they say Period!

A deal has already been agreed to, just waiting for our season to end to make it official.

A lot of Hog fans can't stand Vitello and most realize he's not coming back.

I never understood the hate that man gets on this site.

Is it because he bumped an ump? Seem to have started then and snowballed from there.

The combination of that, the alters here that are fake UT fans, and the success we’ve had since he took over are partly why

V has won championships in anything he’s played. Turned every school
Around that he’s coached.
Thinking Saban here & those big jets that followed Bama around.
Start betting V on the money line every game..

I heard this from UT booster. They’re offering Vitello either way. Just matter if he takes it or not

Only way Tony goes anywhere in my opinion is if it’s MLB.
He’s done a great job and has made significant changes the last couple of years in particular with his marketability. He’s similar to Bryson Dechambeau as someone that used to appear to be a massive tool is now pretty cool.

What part of the deal has been agreed upon DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND?

Better go back and worry about your team because I hear your coach is nervous as hell about facing us and one of your fans has hit the panic mode because reality is setting of key injuries.

BTW, we're not Kentucky.

Coming from a team that was overrated the entire year and got outplayed by an A&M team that had it easy in their bracket.

He has already gotten those offers. His extension is already done. Expect it to be announced within a few days of the CWS.
