"The Athletic" discussion

Disappointing.

But, if he wants to side with Wolken and friends he can be treated accordingly.

 

Yep. It’s Tennessee against the world

 

Rage against the machine

 

Good.

 

At some point people will figure out a substantial amount of our fan base revels in being the villain.

 

Probably started around the time Fowler called the fans trailer trash

 

I’m surprised nobody has dredged up these photos yet…

 

It started around the 85 Auburn game

 

It's just more fuel

 

started way before that.

it’s honestly the history of Tennessee and our spirit as a state.

I mean hell we even turned the American Revolution War with our red neck ways at Kings Mountain.

 

That’s why Lane would have been a perfect fit here. He revels in it, too.

 

As much as I hated the Heupel hire when it was made, I have to say… with Heupel you get most (if not all) of the offensive upside of Kiffin with none of the drama that always seems to follow him wherever he goes. I see what you’re saying but I feel like UT football has exactly the guy we need right now.

 

put out the power T flag in my Virginia neighborhood. Hound has been authorized and set to howl free. It's war.

 

Agreed. Just seems like Lane and UT are a match made in heaven, but could never get the timing right.

 

they have. Alleged journalists tweeted it with comments on throwing trash

 

For those who aren’t still too angry, Ubben and Rexrode had a nice discussion of the UT defense here:https://theathletic.com/2894104/202...e-football-predictions-that-are-falling-flat/

 

No thanks.

 

Pass.

 

They should probably write for some other school with less passion. Surely that will attract more readers and subscriptions anyway than the horde of "self-destructive" Vol fans who are now "villains." Plenty of schools to write about.

 

I read it because I’m still trying to figure out what I’m supposed to be angry about.
