One thing about Tennessee’s performance that stands out: They went out and beat Clemson 31-14 missing their four best players. That speaks volumes about the character of the locker room understanding the need to step up and it shows, in part, what Josh Heupel has created here.

One crucial decision in last night’s game that hasn’t gotten the attention it deserves: Vols get the ball back on their own 32 after Bama misses a FG, :15 to play. But instead of taking a knee and head to OT, Josh Heupel says “We’ve got Hooker.” 2 plays, 45 yards, FG. Ballgame.

@ReceDavis Wonderful story. It’s gems like that that define people. It’s like the one time I met him on the boardwalk in Ocean City (NJ) and we spoke for nearly 15 minutes on UCLA, the NBA and…… Whales. He segued into whales from, of course, salt water taffy. He truly was one of a kind.

Culture starts at the top, for better or for worse. With Tony V, it’s as good as it gets. Ask anyone around the program how much they love playing for the man.

Tony Vitello just gave one of the fiercest postgame press conference openings I’ve ever seen. He was clearly upset with a question from yesterday asking if they lost tonight, would this season be seen as a success. There was A LOT more involved with this.

So much negativity towards this Vols team from some Vols fans after a 45-14 win. Right, they’re far from perfect, they absolutely have stuff to work on and I would submit there are a few position coaches on the staff that should be on the hot seat when the season’s over. Like I

In a season of great highs, a couple of lows, and a host of signature moments this was the top of the mountain for me.

One more reason to appreciate Josh Heupel though none of what he said today was a surprise. His job is to protect his players and the program. He doesn’t owe a full accounting to anyone except Danny White, Donde Plowman and a player’s family.

Josh Heupel. He can coach. He can develop. And yes, the man can recruit.

One guy who deserves a ton of credit: Tony Vitello. We often question a coach’s decisions. That’s what we do. But leaving Burns in as long as he did, that’s a guy knowing exactly what his pitcher had left physically and mentally. Burns was Superman tonight. @Vol_Baseball

“If Tennessee truly believes this series isn't over, this series isn't over. These Vols are good enough to make everyone forget Saturday. They just can't make the same mistakes they made Saturday, or they'll never forget the national title they gave away.” - Wes Rucker 🎯

A thought on Jalin Hyatt. He’s got two clear options: stay at Tennessee and make a lot of NIL money or go to the NFL and make a lot of money. As he and his family break it all down I hope he remembers one thing: The only right choice is the one *he wants and the one *he makes.
