UTk has a great NIL program, is recruiting extremely well, and has the team/infrastructure/fanbase to regularly make the playoff and contend for a natty.

With that being said, Tennessee won't win one. They will contend at the same time as (at least) UGA, Texas, LSU, Bama, and possibly aTm. Not to mention Oregon (who's building an extremely strong program), OSU, and other teams on the national stage. Tennessee isn't traditionally a team built for winning 3-4 playoff games in a row, they're not consistent enough historically speaking nor under Heupel.

But all of that to say, get ready for insufferable UTk (and UTa) fans for the foreseeable future.

All because your AD is too chicken shite to address a culture problem at UGA…. I guess this is going to be the typical response thread moving forward.

I hope and pray your AD would address a culture problem at UGA by firing Kirby because my team can't beat him on the field

I think Danny White is the best AD in the conference. I thought the Heupel hire was kind of lazy, but it was the best option Tennessee had at the time. That hire has worked out for UTK football, and has gotten UTK back to their historical ceiling of the Citrus Bowl, and non-CFP NY6 bowl games.

The announced/planned facility upgrades for all sports are impressive to me as a Georgia fan, considering how much UGA has ignored baseball and basketball until lately.

I’m on record saying leave the on the field coaches alone but fire the AD and bring in an AD to address disciplinary issues. But ok.

Already addressed that I would want an agreement between the Big 10 and the SEC that players fleeing punishment should not be allowed immediately to play in either conference. They want a second chance it should be at the Group of or lower conferences.

I don't think you read the entire post. Basically, yall will never win one, just get close enough for it to break your soul when you lose.

Georgia won't win another one for another 40 years.

Enjoy!

Why would we fire White? The Vols don’t have a discipline problem. We actually kick players that need to go.

Funny the last time you guys won a national title they literally named the offseason issues after your coach…”The Fulmer Cup”

That AD was fired. And the Fulmer cup was the brain child of an asshat Florida fan. Ironically UT has never won a Fulmer cup, never finished in the top 3. But UGA has won one and was in the top 5 all time when it ended. And if we were still keeping score, UGA would have added atleast 1 possibly 2 more and been a top 2 all time achievement program.

But keep grasping.
