If that’s how you want to interpret it

Uhh…Florida and Arkansas fans are very much not looking forward to the future right now.

Btw Clark Lea is 1-3 against JH and half your team is graduating after this season.

To answer OP, Josh is not on the hot seat, but the honeymoon period is over. He has to address some recurring issues, or else we will be looking for a new coach in the next year or two
Doubtful but nothings off the table in CFB. After yesterday I don’t think a lot of VOLS fans would be super upset, but we’d be totally screwed if he bailed this late in the cycle. Unless….

Wasn’t Saban publicly calling for letting Lane stay through the playoffs even if he took the LSU job? They may not be super high on him right now. But we are in unknown territory so who knows

how bad did Tennessee suck prior to Pearl!?!


Outside of a few odd years (Ernie/Bernie, for example), VOLS didn't have a very good basketball history prior to Pearl. But the subsequent 30 years of being a good/great program helps the VOLS reputation substantially, especially considering recency bias.

Can confirm
Weird Tennessee laws = strip clubs aren’t the best

You’ll see a lot better on Broadway. And a lot worse.

footVOLS are not dropping these games at home.


Arkansas has had our number for quite a while, and Bobby P will have the team ready to play. I still think we win, but it might be a slugfest. Hopefully not but I am prepared for the worst.
I’ve never been a big fan of this iteration:

I acknowledged that. Did you even read what I wrote? I thought you were smart, dude. G-D mussies.

"And apart from uga, bama, and lsu (and to a lesser extent, uf and auburn), I highly doubt this stat line against uga and uf is unique to the VOLS"'

"Yeah, it's the worst record in the Big 6 over that time period."





Most notable thing about 1998: you weren't even born yet
I'm just saying, a lot of teams sucked arse against bama, uf and uga, the last 20 years. Literally everyone struggled against Saban bama. And apart from uga, bama, and lsu (and to a lesser extent, uf and auburn), I highly doubt this stat line against uga and uf is unique to the VOLS. Yeah, it's the worst record in the Big 6 over that time period. But it's no secret the program went through a but of turmoil from 2008 to 2022, at the time when various SEC teams were peaking.

He's welcome to post the stat, i'm just contextualizing.

OK, so he's your guy. So when then?


This is the wrong question to ask. The questions is, who is the 100% slam dunk hire that is available and willing to come to UT right now and would be guaranteed to be better than CJH? Firing Fulmer without a plan in place led to the 15 years of suck and being the laughing stock of college football. Why would we set ourselves up for that again?

If CJH ends up struggling to break through for another 4/5 years, it will be time to revisit the conversation. But firing him right now, when he is clearly on an upward trajectory relative to the last 20 years of our program, and has taken us to the playoffs (and currently seems likely to make it two in a row) would be a moronic idea.

UGA went about 20 years without winning the conference, and that was relatively recently. shite goes in cycles.

You want to sit at the grown folks table in this conference, fine. You need to at least win the conference once every couple decades.

You absolutely hate to see it.
