The BottomLine: Post-Bama and Pre-Worley
2011-10-24 20:54:00
Bama Recap For 30 minutes, Tennessee played its best football of the season. We saw a team that was well prepared. The offensive line blocked well; the defensive line stopped the run, and we went toe to toe with one of the best teams in the nation in one of the best rivalry games in ...

The BottomLine: LSU Thoughts, Looking Ahead, and a Little Round Ball Talk
2011-10-17 23:18:00
LSU Thoughts The LSU game brought with it a feeling of inevitability, a feeling that we had literally no chance to win. That proved to be the case on yesterday?s beautiful afternoon in Neyland Stadium. Tennessee showed up and competed, but at the end of the day the Tigers simply have too much. There were ...

The BottomLine: Inaugural Edition

As the days shorten, the weather gets cooler, and the leaves begin to change, the SEC schedule is just heating up. Tennessee finds itself in the unenviable position of sitting at 0-2 in the League with a murderer?s row of games upcoming that will ultimately determine how this season is remembered.

Georgia Game: What to make of it.
2011-10-09 22:22:00
Sitting after the Georgia game this Sunday afternoon, I am trying to think of what to say. It?s a tough loss. While Georgia is the more talented team, it?s still a young team coming into Neyland at night. The talent gap isn?t as substantial as last year, and well, we are going against Mark Richt, ...

October promises to be frightening month for Vols

As we draw closer to the season, everyone has a take on what is going to happen this year in college football. I?ll offer a little different spin on that and tell you what WON?T happen this college football season, much to the chagrin of some of us TN fans, and most certainly to some of our rival fans??.

Guitar Shots to the Head: Giving Up the Ghost
2008-08-07 01:04:00
I have never been a student of the paranormal. Last week I was driving through town and saw an old Jeep Cherokee with KY Ghost Hunters printed in large letters across the back of the windshield. It made me laugh out loud. It also made me wonder about the kind of person that would hire a spook sleuth to inspect their property. Then it hit me. Perhaps this UT football program could use a ghost hunter or two to come out to Neyland stadium and run some tests on the Vol sidelines.

Did Someone mention Tennessee Football?
2008-07-25 22:16:00
Thursday's circus at SEC Media Days turned out to be more of a lesson on attorneys and law rather than football. When all was said and done, I sat back and realized I hadn't heard a word of what coach Fulmer said about the team. The only quotes I could recall were regarding the subpoena.

Fulmer served subpoena at SEC Media Days
2008-07-24 17:33:00
Breaking news already this morning from SEC Media Days involving Tennessee coach Phillip Fulmer, but not for the reasons you might think. Coach Fulmer has reportedly been served a subpoena to appear in court to testify in the ongoing libel suit filed against the NCAA by an Alabama booster.

SEC Media Days - Urban Meyer

Guitar Shots to the Head: Tale of the Tape
2008-07-23 18:50:00
I am quite positive that some of you have video libraries of old UT games. My DVD collection consists of Seinfeld and about three other movies. I have never been one to collect things. In fact if it wasn?t for my wife, I probably wouldn?t even take photographs. Sure, I would have a few pictures of my kids, but I wouldn?t have albums of pictures. For the most part, I like to live in the here and now.

Thanks to OWH this week I have a topic. And I know you?re not supposed to do this, but I?ll apologize in advance, as this week?s pining is probably a bit redundant. And besides, with the credit for the idea, OWH can share the blame. Thanks buddy!

I hope that your neighbors have stopped shooting off their July 4 fireworks. Unfortunately mine haven?t?..I am still hearing them every night around 10:30. Oh well. I guess they figure if they have to travel 130 miles over the Jellico Pass they may as well buy a three weeks supply for their celebrations.

Guitar Shots to the Head: Party Unity
2008-06-06 21:01:00
With Hillary conceding and McCain desperately reshaping his image to appeal to the more conservative members of the Republican Party , one idea will permeate the airwaves and the public discussion. In the coming weeks ?party unity? will be a political buzz word thrown around in both democratic and republican circles. In many ways the upcoming 2008 campaign for Jonathan Crompton is no different.

Ten years have passed, and boy does time fly. As a nation we have lived through a president not having sex with a woman, an election fiasco, and two terms of G.W. Bush?s presidency. We lived through the dreaded Y2k crisis, 9/11/2001, started a war in two countries and are on the cusp of another presidential election.

Guitar Shots to the Head 5-6
2008-05-06 22:45:00
The countdown to kickoff continues, and along with that comes a warning to the Volnation. Prepare yourself for an earful of prognostications declaring Georgia and Florida the heirs to the SEC throne for the upcoming football season. Yes we have seen and heard it all before. It seems eerily similar to the hype surrounding both of those programs last year. Meanwhile, in Knoxville, UT is quietly toiling away?.installing a new offense and propping the confidence of a defensive front seven which was a very shaky unit last year.

That's right, today's blog post is about a former Lady Vol basketball player. Why? I'm not sure any Lady Vol aside from Candace Parker has ever been the recipient of as much message board and blog chatter as Brittany Jackson [a quick search of the Volnation forums returned 92 threads].
