Yes, Vols, hang down your head and cry! You’ve just hired the Louisiana Tech head coach, your fifth choice (at best), scion of Vince Dooley, who comes in sporting a 17-20 record.
What is it about the Vols hiring relatively inexperienced HCs who don’t even have winning records? At least he seems like a polite young man, unlike that boor who they used to have. One hopes he will take his beatings respectfully, without all that gum flapping.
Let the wild speculation about the replacement at La Tech begin!!!!!

Certainly not the way most of us wanted to start off bowl week – being reminded that it’s easy to underestimate teams we haven’t seen all season. Fred pads his lead a little more, and Chris manages to spend two whole weeks out of the basement.
On to the second portion of our three-week garden party.
