re: The case for Heupel

Tennessee fans may be getting restless and he could want a change.

People keep saying this is a reason Heupel might want to leave. Tell me a big time program where fans don’t get restless and pissed after a loss?

Actually I think the rebuild could be really quick

With the transfer portal and NIL you can rebuild your talent in one recruiting cycle. Hell you can bring in a whole new team. The problem is building team chemistry and culture. It takes time.
So who is the worst team ever? Tampa their first year under the great John McKay has my vote. What do you think of your teams execution coach? McKay, “I’m all for it.”

re: Elbow tendinitis recovery. How long?

I have this in my left elbow. My wife is a Nurse Practitioner, she told me to rest it until it feels better. It could take a month or more to fully heal. I can’t make myself take a month off from working out, so I just deal with it.

Lashlee is going to be your next coach.

Yes but you can just make him the interim this season and then make a decision on what to do. Really not a bad situation if he does well keep him if not get someone else.

TENN FANS: who does tennessee get to replace him? genuinely curious what the feel is around there about what's next.

I think it has to be Elander, you can put the interim tag on him this season if he does well keep him, if not you can hire someone else. Hard to find a coach after fall practice has started.
It has to be Elander or Frank. It would be hard to pull a coach from somewhere else after they have already started fall practice.

Yeah if they make it a crime to say the word in public every black person in the city would be locked up.

re: Nico not at practice?

Posted by Shoney on 4/11/25 at 12:14 pm to
if you go to Volnation, Tennessee fans are done with Nico there is no coming back from this. He pretty much has to leave now. Whatever games were being played have worked out poorly for team Nico.
I think at this point it would be best for everyone if he left. The fanbase has turned on Nico there is really no coming back from this. It puts Tennessee in a bind depth wise, but I think in the long run it's worth it. You risk losing the team if you give in.
It will be a fight from tip to buzzer.
I’m very happy for Ole Miss and their fans. Keep Beard and it will only get better. I also think MSU is a good match up for you.
I remember growing up this was my dad’s Sunday night watch, it’s turned to shite.

It really is impressive.

I sure as hell don’t want to lose to Ky for the 3rd time, but life will go on if we do. If we win though life will be great for a day.

re: “Magic Spray” on bats…

Tennessee takes these timeouts when it looks like it will be a quick inning, they’re trying to give their pitchers a little more rest. I’ve watched pretty much every game this year and they have done this many times.
Radio operator and top turret. To hell with the ball turret .

Geez, if you guys sweep us tomorrow and beat us in basketball, it would not be good.

I think we are a little better in baseball and you guys are a little better in basketball. Your starting pitching is always near the top of the SEC.
