The Vols will never reach Omaha under Vitello again. Winning baseball nattys is an SEC West tradition. The East is an afterthought.

I don’t watch baseball. Why do you have a NASCAR billboard at a baseball park?

I'll take Kyle Peterson's version of the ejection, as he's not biased either way. But if your version is correct, using your words is grounds for an ejection in MLB. The "F" word is verboten in just about every league. Wasn't this the same player who flipped off the opposing 2nd baseman as he came in from the outfield? And was warned by the infield ump? Flipped off as in "F" you? And describe it as you will, but TV was still ejected from the game & suspended by the League if I am not mistaken. As for TV being an elite recruiter, Tommy Tanks White says "hello".

The coaches you named all have national titles. That is how success is measured in the SEC. So no, for as much of a D bag ( the real eeason he is hated) ad Vitello is he in not as successful as any of the named coaches. And doubt he ever will be.

No!! And he didn’t flip the 2nd baseman off. He flipped the center fielder off that was talking shite the inning prior to that. And his name was Jordan Beck AKA Mike Honcho.

This is correct, but it was only a game because they even knew Vitello and this ump has been having issues that date back to the prior year and they had to do somthing. So suspending him made it look like they done “something”.

As for TV being an elite recruiter,
There is no disputing this by any “experts” even Dave Van Horn credited Vitello for bringing in top classes. Even elite recruiter miss out on kids every cycle. No one ever gets everyone they go after. Their is multiple reason other than the coach why someone would chose one school over another. Even Kevin Kopps dad done an interview saying Vitello is the reason why Kopps even came to Arkansas. And Kopps will go down as one of the best pitchers of all time at Arkansas.
UT Recruiting classes under Vitello:
Perfect Game
2018- #6
2019- #9
2020- #6 (COVID) only played 17 games
2021- #5 (Omaha)
2022- #6
2023- #4 (Omaha)
2024- #2 currently
2025- #4 currently
2026- #3 currently
PG started tracking recruiting rankings in 2011. Tennessee has 1 top 10 class from 2011-2017. Vitello 3rd full year as HC, he takes Tennessee to Omaha. Tennessee won 7 conference games in 2017 year before he took over. Now Tennessee is upgrading its facilities and stadium, just be prepared for UT yo be a regular in Omaha under Vitello. It’s only a matter of time before UT gets a title in baseball.

I hope you’re trolling? Tennessee will continue to be in Omaha more times than not as long as Vitello is at UT. I wouldn’t expect Vitello to go anywhere as UT has made him one of highest paid coaches in the country. Vitello is also having a direct hand in the way the stadium is being upgraded and upgrade of the facilities. Just get ready, it’s only a matter of time before Vitello wins a natty at UT.

The coaches you named all have national titles.
Van Horn does not have a National Title in D1 baseball and he’s been a coach for 25 years. It took Bianco at 22 years at Ole Miss before he won 1. It took Johnson 10 season as a HC before he got his 1st title. It took Tim Corbin 12 years as a HC before he got his 1st title. Vitello is only in his 6th full year as a HC ever, let’s see what he does when given the same amount of time as Johnson, Bianco, Van Horn, and Corbin
1st time in Omaha, and what team:
Vitello- in 3rd year as HC (Tennessee)
Corbin- in 9th year as HC (Vandy)
Bianco- in 17th year as HC (Ole Miss)
Van Horn- in 4th year as HC( Nebraska)
Jay Johnson- in 3rd year as HC (Arizona)
As you see, Vitello is ahead of all these coaches and tied with Johnson for making to Omaha for the 1st time. Difference between JJ and Vitello, is that JJ had previous HC experience before Arizona, Vitello did not have prior HC experiences. That’s why it’s more impressive what Vitello has done with little experience as a HC.

And yet Vitello and the Vols have been to Omaha more times than chOklahoma has made the NCAA tournament since Vitello been a HC at UT.

They were both in their third season as head coach.
Johnson advanced to the championship series while Vitello went 0-2.

Incorrect.
Oklahoma has three NCAA tournament appearances since Vitello became Tennessee's head coach while Tennessee has two CWS appearances.

We actually brought multiple National Championships home for The Conference.
Vitello has been a HC since 2018. Coaches like Horn, that’s been a coach for 25 years and still doesn’t have one is a joke. Bianco took him 22 years to win his first one. Took Tim Corbin 12 years and Johnson 10 years to win their first titles. Vitellos has only had 5 seasons under his belt as HC( Covid season don’t count). When he gets to 25 years lol DVH or Bianco, let’s see how many he has.
Hell it even took Skip Bertman 8 seasons to win his 1st national title at LSU. And Skip is considered the best HC in LSU baseball history.
Skip Bertman first 5 seasons at LSU:
Omaha- 2
Missed NCAA Tourny- 2
SEC Regular Season Champs-1
SEC tournament Champs-1
50+ win seasons- 1
Most wins in a season- 55
Won west- 2
Vitello first 5 seasons at UT:
Omaha- 2
Missed NCAA Tourney- 1
SEC Tournament Champs- 1
SEC Regular Season Champs- 1
50+ win seasons- 2
Most wins in a season- 57
Won East- 2
Was you LSU cucks saying Bertman wasn’t a good coach before he made his 1st Omaha trip? Hell Vitello numbers are better than a Hall of Famer numbers through their first 5 years. They both started off as HC at same schools they currently at or retired at. Either coach came from a lesser job as HC. Vitello could end up the Vols Bertman, you never know. Its till to early to tell.

Took Skip Bertman 8 years to win his first title at LSU. Vitello only in his 6th year as HC. He still has time to catch the “great” LSU coach.
