Coach, I am gonna sit...
and watch this one. To be honest, I am not a Lane Kiffin fan. But like any good VOL fan, I want to win and if he starts winning, my money and my time will go back into Tennessee.
He did secure Bryce Brown, the #1 player in the country last year to everyone's surprise. I was a huge Phil Fulmer fan. He had so much talent at Tennessee but won only one national title.
With Florida, Alabama, LSU and Georgia all competing for national titles, Tennessee can not be left behind. The powers-to-be in Knoxville just don't tolerate it. We use to think SEC crowns were just as equivalent but trust me, watching Florida walk away with the "National Crown" or LSU just spews hatred like nothing else!
The rivalries are deep-rooted and a lot of people are putting a lot of hope on Lane Kiffin. He's young, energetic and has brought an all-star cast to Knoxville. Only time will tell. Right now, I am holding judgment as I can not stomach another season in Knoxville less than a national championship run.
Sorry I did not see this post sooner.
