Today marks the four-year anniversary of the Vols hiring Josh Heupel.
As the Tennessee PR team emphasized today, it’s been a good run for football.
Thirty wins … good enough for the winningest three-year stretch at UT since 1998-2000. Third-best in the SEC over that span.
A .769 win percentage over three seasons … good enough to be third in the SEC as well.
Ten wins over ranked teams since the start of the 2022 season … that puts Heupel fourth among active FBS coaches in that regard.
We’ve won an Orange Bowl, a Citrus Bowl, and had a berth in the College Football Playoff.
There’s been plenty to celebrate.
While Vol Football may not quite be at championship level yet, they’re close.
Are we on the doorstep, or just in the neighborhood? That remains to be seen. Still, most teams would want to be us.
And that’s worth celebrating on a Monday.
Especially given the decade and a half before Heupel .
