For my first post, I thought I would share with the board what I think about my Tennessee Vols.

Phillip Fulmer left our program in a terrible situation. We have 2 quarterbacks who couldn't play for Miami Northwestern High School. We have an offensive line that, depth-wise, is pretty much in shambles. We have a recieving corps that has a few solid guys, is lacking in playmaking ability required to be competitive with Florida, Alabama, etc.
That disclaimer aside, Lane Kiffin has done a superb job. We went 5-7, but he and his All-Star staff hauled in a top 10 class and the number 1 player in the country, stole a highly touted DB from LSU, and a couple of WR's from the defending champs. We played Florida better than everyone thought, and we currently sit 4th in recruiting rankings.

I'm pumped about the future. I'm pumped about Lane. I'm pumped about Coach O. I'm pumped about Monte. I'm pumped about the rivalries Florida-Tennessee and Tennessee-Alabama are about to become once again.

Awesome. Go Vols.

Monte will be dead before Tennessee even plays Alabama.

I have nothing but respect for Alabama and Nick Saban. He's doing an awesome job.

no offense vols fans... but why are there so few original UT fans on here that use good screen names?

It's always like Vol85, or Volfan, or GoVols, etc... it's a weird phenomenon.

i know there are some obviously... i'm not blind, just talking about in general.

also, ... welcome to the board!

Kiffin has no class and is a clown, he is not the right man at UT. Coaches in the SEC have nothing but respect for each other aside from Kiffin. Prior to Kiffin coming to the SEC there was no trash talking amongst coaches for the most part.

somebody somewhere will beat the tar out of Kiffen because he talks and acts like a twelve year old. Monte is old as dirt and if he survives for a few more years its hard to coach in old folks home. Coach O will end up in AAA meetings or jail because he a raging alcoholic. But yes, your right the future looks bright for you guys!
