I also read his post to say that Italians like getting T-shirts made, so I don’t know.

The Tony Vitello hype here reminds me of all the Matt Canada bullshite on this board.

Never understood the Matt Canada infatuation. Have no idea how he conned his way into an NFL OC position.

I have a feeling you've correctly interpreted his comments.

I still want Vitello, but this 2 minute clip definitely leads to me to believe he's getting what he wants from Tennessee and he'll stay there. Twitter Interview

Once he used the word “loyalty””, he ain’t coming. You can be sure it means something to him, and he won’t be going back on it.


By that logic, he'll be deeply hurt and will leave if Tenn is not "loyal" to him by paying him what the market demands.

5-8 years down the road, we’re all going to say, “Man I’m glad TV never became our baseball coach.” Tom Herman 2.0



He’s already had more success than Herman in the toughest baseball conference in a shorter amount of time

He’s also is recruiting at a better clip than the football equivalent as Herman and Vitello isn’t weird like Herman

The idea Scott Woodward was even interested in Vitello is entirely a message board creation.
No, it was plants by Sexton to the Vols media.

He's a good young coach with fire, I think Scott is going for something else.

Good! I don’t get all of the admiration for him. The little but I’ve seen of him has shown me nothing but child like behavior. He has no class and neither do his fans. He also hasn’t proved he can sustain a program and based on that alone, I’d pass.

That is EXACTLY why that comment was made. That was a brief way of saying. "Loyalty means something to me, Tennessee. I've got big options outside of you. So if you want me to stick around SHOW (don't tell) me just how loyal you are going to be to me."

The "t-shirt" statement was his way of saying "Tennessee, I showed you I want to be loyal to you. Now it's your turn to reciprocate."

I know baseball is different with all the unwritten rules of etiquette, but we're all classless

I haven’t seen any none trash Twitter sources say that Vitello was even on the list. LSU wasn’t interested

In the Twitter interview TV spoke of loyalty, and immediately afterward said UT took a chance on him when his own alma mater didn't. Sounds to me like he is staying put.
