In the last 6 months Tennessee has had teams:
Win NY6 Bowl
Men's Sweet 16 Birth
Women's Sweet 16 Birth
Women's CWS
Men's CWS
Compare this to where UT was 5 years ago:
4-8 Football (of course, no bowl)
Men's Basketball - 2nd round loss to Loyola-Chicago
Women's Basketball - 2nd round loss to Oregon State
Softball - Swept in Georgia Super Regionals
Baseball - Did not make post-season (including SEC tourney)
Has the dumpster fire been somewhat extinguished?

I don't know. Let's compare to Florida in each category over the same period.
NY6 Win - UT yes; UF No
Men's Sweet 16 - UT Yes; UF No
Women's Sweet 16 - UT Yes; UF No
WCWS - UT Yes; UF No
MCWS - UT Yes; UF Yes

Its one of the best Athletic Departments in the country much to the dismay of this board

You forgot to include the biggest accomplishment of the 21st century. You guys beat Bama that one time and it was sooooo cool

Also I remember when y'all said winning a NY6 bowl wasn't worth celebrating.

Let’s compare Texas vs Tennessee last 5 years
Playoffs - TX 0 TN 0
M Elite 8 - TX 1 TN 0
W Elite 8 - TX 2 TN 0
WCWS Wins - TX 4 TN 2
MCWS Wins - TX 3 TN 0
Texas hasn’t been all that. You need to raise the bar.

Pretty good does not equal excellent
6 Months does not equal 5 years
The point of my post is that the last 6 months is significantly BETTER than what UT has done over the last 5 year...so, if you want to compare the two UT's over the period set in the title of the thread...ok.
Last 6 Months (since 12/13/22)
NY6 Bowl win - UT Yes; UTx No
Men's Elite 8 - UT No; UTx Yes (both made Sweet 16)
Women's Sweet 16 - UT Yes; UTx No
WCWS - UT Yes; UTx No (Lost in the Knoxville Super Regionals)
MCWS - UT Yes; UTx No

It's historic for UT. More than good, they are writing books about it. It's a shame. We were elite under Richt and I didn't even know it.

Ok...if Heupel is Tennessee's Richt, I can accept that. Personally, I believe that Pruitt left the cupboard more bare at UT than Donnan did at UGA...(Donnan's last team was 8-4 and Pruitt's was 3-7). If we go the next 16 seasons and are 45 games over .500 in conference like Richt did, that would be significantly better than the last 16 years.

Tennessee is doing great, and I hate having to admit that because I am not a fan of your athletic director.
Tennessee wins 2nd consecutive SEC All-Sports Trophy
I usually make a thread about the SEC all sports trophy, but I have been busy.
