Welcome to the new FOX Sports Knoxville weekly mailbag! Send us any questions you’d like at fox@sportsradioknoxville.com. We’re accepting all questions about Valentine’s Day, Tennessee athletics, and awards shows now. What do you make of Lane Kiffin being out on the prowl for college girls now that he’s a head coach? Will: Is it terribly different…
The Bachelor Squad discusses Corinne, Kristina, and axing a whole lot of women. No Chance this week – he’s taking a week off to recover from the bonkers back-and-forth remote control game he played last night. (Cavs-Wizards is the game of the year in basketball at any level.) Jon and Will of the Bachelor Squad…
The Vols blew a 19 point lead and saw their four game win streak ended at Mississippi State. Before the game Tennessee had over a 50% chance of making the tournament, however, after the loss that number fell all the way down to. . . 43.9%. The loss to Mississippi State wasn’t a death blow, but…
Answering questions about Brady Hoke below. 1. 2017 will be Hoke’s 36th season as a coach of one sort or another. With some of the positional hires, Butch Jones seems to be leaning on what candidate has the most experience out of those available. Hoke would qualify pretty well here. He holds 18 years of…
Super Bowl 51 contained a phenomenal finish, the greatest comeback in NFL history, and the worst Atlantaing of them all. But: it also contained a few commercials worth talking about. This year, each commercial went for nearly $5 million per 30 seconds. This is insane. This is also great, because I can’t think of anything…
However, no more bad losses and a 6-2 finish are necessary. So that wasn’t good at all. Tennessee dropped a must-win game to Mississippi State 64-59. They played a terrible, pathetic excuse of a game, but were not helped by officiating so incompetent it may be worthy of a Nobel Prize for sheer breadth in…
BUTCH WILL NOT DIVIDE US BUTCH WILL NOT DIVIDE US BUTCH WILL NOT DIVIDE US We’ve already dropped one commentary on why Butch Jones and his comments are bad for Tennessee. It’s high time we drop a video about it, too. Jon Reed and Will Warren went to the He Will Not Divide Us livestream…
Dear Butch, Grow a pair. You have turned Tennessee into the laughing stock of not only the SEC, but the entire country. How is it humanly possible for a brain to produce the words that come out of your mouth? “This year we had to turn away more talented guys than we’ve ever had to…
Just one silly arrest can save someone’s day, apparently. As usual, Vol Twitter killed it on National Signing Day. There were plenty of great tweets from fans, readers, and Vol loyalists yesterday. They were roundly negative, because this class is the lowest-ranked one for Tennessee since 2013. Then, out of nowhere, Jauan Jennings got cited for…
Despite 28 commits, Tennessee’s class doesn’t rank very well nationally. What fans across the region feared has come to light: Tennessee’s struggling to recruit well. It’s true that this class could outplay their expectations, but most agree it’s a step down from previous Butch Jones classes. What most may not know is it’s the lowest-ranked…
