I’ve deleted about 5 prior tweets. I’ll say this, I cut the game off. Lack of effort & focus will NEVER be accepted at Tennessee. There’s a standard & we fell so far below that today. Disrespectful to Al Wilson who spoke to team & Peyton, who’s in attendance.SMH. Hot pile of 💩

Boos were so loud when a position group hit the field during warm ups. I assumed it was Tennessee players being booed since we’re the away team.
It was Ohio State players being booed by the Tennessee crowd.
Absolutely unreal.

Holly Warlick is an alum. She’s given most of her life to the University Of Tennessee. I think it’s clear what needs to happen moving forward w/ the program, but I think she deserves respect and a thank you. She’s one of us. Whether she can get the job done or not, She’s a Vol.

Tennessee offensive line,
We see you getting better. Y’all boys deserve a ton of credit for allowing the double move to develop.

Parents, let’s have a conversation tonight with OUR children before bed. Convo on the way to/from school. A convo about:
-Being leaders not followers.
-Standing up to bullying.
-Not ignoring bullying.
Parents, it starts with US

Coach Fulmer will address our players here in 10 min. They will know what orange blood is all about. I’m happy for our players. They will experience what a lot of us experienced being recruited by coach.

Fans showed up tonight. Effort was better tonight. Too many inexcusable mistakes. Playcalling on offense and defense made it clear what our weaknesses are. I have zero answers but to go back to work. I’m sick for our program.

The conversation should be about the Tennessee defense. You should’ve seen the red teams body language after the first drive of the game. They wanted no more. That was a clinic

Holly Warlick gave her life to Tennessee and women’s college basketball. She’s a Vol for life.
It was time.
Tennessee has parted ways with women’s basketball coach Holly Warlick, source told @stadium. Went to the NCAA tourney in all seven seasons after taking over for Pat Summitt, but was unable to get the Vols to a Final Four.

When you dont....
Shoot ball well.
Win 50/50 balls
Play agressive
Value possessions
Run offense and assist on made baskets...... I DONT WANT TO HEAR ANYTHING ABOUT REFS.
MAKE PROGRESS OR MAKE EXCUSES. CAN'T DO BOTH!
I love this team. They will respond! #Vols

Looks like Currie is feeding the national media to ambush Phillip Fulmer. The same national people who praised the John Currie hire. Something is off... Ive known Coach for 14 yrs. He loves Tennessee more than he loves himself. I'm still digging though! Truth over everything!

Stoops decided to go for it 4th and 4 at the end of the first half. Failed and UT had a masterful 2 min drill to get in position to kick and hit the 43 yd FG. HUGE!!! #Vols won by 3.

Nope, this is it. DK is just satisfied with winning the SEC regular season title. Time to opt out and prepare for NBA
OR....
just maybe an athlete in the moment is happy with his teammates to help his hoops program do something that hasn't been done since 2008 & 1967. Athletes can be happy in the moment. Let them, without always over analyzing every single move they make just have a take. It's ok to sometimes not have a take folks.
Winning a regular-season SEC title gets the ring celebration? Dalton Knecht is incredible but gotta have bigger Tournament goals.

Plan was to have alternate helmet with uni. Because of supply chain issues, it crushed the plan for the black helmet Every avenue was explored. Kudos to equipment team for mods to white helmet to make it work.

Highly respected SEC DL coach Rodney Garner has been in the #Tennessee football building today. Good sign! Would be great hire. Great recruiter. He was the only reason I took a visit to UGA when he recruited me.

I don’t know if this team last year would’ve pulled it out if Dalton Knecht fouled out with that much time left in second half. What a performance from Gainey. The toughest, grit and fight was on full display from the winning team in orange.

It's unfortunate that media folks outside Tennessee media are taking a small loud segment of the fanbase's take & running with it to create content to paint the entire fanbase as ungrateful & crazy.
MOST OF THE FANBASE JUST WANT BETTER. Thats it.
BETTER
Totally fair request.

STOP BULLYING: A freshman at MLK Prep was getting made fun of for weeks. He wore the same clothes to school everyday.
Two of his classmates gave him clothes and new shoes.

Hope he crushes the record in a big orange win!
If Jauan Jennings catches five passes Saturday against South Carolina, he’ll pass @SwainEvent for sixth on the #Vols' all-time receptions list.
He’s coming for you, Swain. He’s coming for you.
