Tony V has made me a fan

I wasn’t crazy about some of his early teams, but it’s now obvious that he wants the team to play to their own personality.
The guy stepped into the deepest, best conference in college baseball & just started winning. It wasn’t like 30-40 years ago, when only a handful of SEC teams were national powers. Everybody in this league is good, & he’s climbed to the top.
Good Luck, Vols!

dude is a good coach, just needs to learn how to make it work in Omaha..
It’s probably a longshot, but I would love for Texas to hire him.

That would be really unfortunate for the rest of us. Like JJ @ LSU

So what your saying is you sit in the cuck chair?

His teams this year and last seem a lot less emotionally driven.
Good job by Tony V.

Apparently he received some good advice.

Did you miss the game against MSU - 5th inning, I believe...

He did himself a disservice by trying to play into that beta male attitude his players had in 2022. He probably thought it would galvanize the team, but it back fired. He seems to have learned from it.

Meh, I wasn’t a fan of that, but things happen in a game.
I remember a certain fan base accusing Nick Mingione of tryin to trip & injure a player on a foul ball when he was a base coach at State. Fans are gonna fan, including me

Good coach that is figuring things out. I’m convinced he will get a championship someday soon.

He’s being groomed to replace DVH.

Imo Tony V had to elbow his way in and ruffled some feathers among the old guard.
Whether people like him or not, he’s a good coach and I hope he stays at UT for a long time.

Did you miss him not reacting to it? State tried and failed to get a reaction

He’s a good coach and a great recruiter. And he seems like a good dude when he’s not between the lines. Always a good and thoughtful interview. For whatever reason, when the game is going on he just gets hyper intense and can lose it occasionally But even that appears to be getting better. Would not be even remotely surprised if they get it done this year.

Drew Gilbert, probably the biggest douchebag on the field he’s ever coached, is, by all accounts, a very standup guy off the field.
And honestly, other than Christian Moore (we all have one like him), their team doesn’t act like the 2022 team anymore.

We used to hit A LOT better when Vitello was here. Lol

He is an awesome coach.
Another in the long line of great coaches who lobbied to coach at Mizzou who were passed over and went on to do good things.
