Tennessee went to Fayetteville Saturday. I think that may have been the highlight: The fact that there was a game on. The Good The top 6 tacklers on Saturday were first-year guys, and all have at least 2 more years of eligibility left: Izauea Lanier, Curt Maggitt, Justin Coleman, Brian Randolph, Mo Couch, and [...]

It’s been a few weeks since Tennessee’s latest commitment. Wait no further. Tennessee has offered Three star corner back Daniel Gray of Lauderdale Lakes, FL. Gray also had offers from Nebraska, Texas A&M, Texas Tech, Ole Miss and Kansas. Gray is the 19th commitment of Derek Dooley’s class of 2012, and the 3rd cornerback, joining [...]
It’s Tuesday, so that means we have some Dooleyisms to deal with today. He started slow this week, but he put it into high gear. Without further ado: On Game Balls: We gave players of the week to two guys. On offense, Justin (Worley) and Da’Rick (Rogers). Justin really played well and played like we’d [...]
It was good to get out of conference on Saturday. Tennessee hosted MTSU and got their first win in a month. Let’s get to it: The Good: Much has been made of Derek Brodus making his first career appearance as a Volunteer. The walk-on scored 6 points. That’s a pretty good story. De-Fense! De-Fense! De-Fense!. [...]
Another Tuesday, another round of Dooleyisms: This is one of the few things that can make a loss bearable: On South Carolina Brent Brewer tore his ACL so he is out for the year. (It’s) unfortunate, but we have to put the next guy in and go play. We are going to start [...]
I’ve been thinking about this game for 36 hours. And I still don’t know what to think. I’ve heard people blame coaching. Surely Derek Dooley can’t get off blame free here. But I just don’t know where we are as a program. I think, from an expectation standpoint, the worst thing that happened to us [...]
Well, I could fill you up with statistical analysis of what to expect on Saturday night, when the Vols and Gamecocks meet. But the fact of the matter is, I have no idea, and neither do you. Would I be stunned by a 21 point South Carolina win? Sadly no. Would I be surprised by [...]
Another Tuesday, another round of Dooleyisms. Let’s get to it: On New Starters: From a personnel standpoint, we are going to keep tinkering around in the secondary because we just aren’t playing as good as we need to be. Prentiss (Waggner) and Izauea (Lanier) will still be out there at corner starting out with (Brian) [...]
Saturday was awesome for a half. I wasn’t sure of a victory at any point Saturday, but I liked the way we competed in the first half in that hostile environment. 6-6 at the half…and we’ll stop there. Now on to the good, bad and ugly. The Good Mike Palardy had his best game ever [...]
When two rivals get together, and go back and forth, and each team is sure that it’s going to win, and each team is sure it’s going to lose, it’s a game to remember. When a game features several momentum shifts and Verne Lundquist messes up names for both teams…you know you have something special. [...]
