Somewhere in a fraternity house on the campus of the University of Tennessee sits a group of teenagers with their heads down, mourning the loss to UCLA and the dampening it put on an off season filled with so much promise.

Battered and bruised, Jonathan Crompton walked out of Neyland Stadium, on Saturday, a beaten man. Unfortunately it was a familiar feeling to him.

Quick “Wildcats” reference for you, and I’m not talking about trendy offense Ronnie Brown runs for the Miami Dolphins. I’m actually referring to Goldie Hawn for those of you old enough to remember. “It’s the sport of Kings, better than diamond rings...football...football.” What better way to describe, what I believe to be, ...Published on: 9th September, 2009

They say that winning cures everything. Let’s hope this is the case for the Tennessee Volunteer faithful who are still smarting from a year long sinus cold they would just as soon forget. Even winning the final two games of the season, against perennially doormats Kentucky and Vanderbilt more than likely just ...Published on: 14th August, 2009
Lane Kiffin has impeccable timing. There has never been a better time to be the first-year coach of the Tennessee Volunteers. This is especially true when one of your main goals is to infuse top-notch talent into the program previously considered unreachable.
