Highly touted running back Bryce Brown is leaving the Tennessee Volunteers. The rising sophomore missed Tennessee’s first day of spring practice on Thursday and informed new head coach Derek Dooley along with other members of the UT coaching staff that he would not be returning. This news comes as a huge shock to the Volunteer faithful as Brown was one of Tennessee’s most highly recruited prospects in recent history and many expected him to shatter several rushing records by the...
Not much is going on around the college football world except for Michigan being out of compliance with NCAA rules, Oregon dealing with another potential player loss, and Derek Dooley making bank as Tennessee’s new coach. With that being said, it looks like I’ve found the perfect tool for USC (the university of spoiled children) to lure recruits to Tinseltown. We have all been intrigued by National Geographic’s documentaries on gang life and prison life, but now you can...
Duke’s football team had quite the week filled with drama. First, speculation abounded over head coach David Cutcliffe’s potential departure to Tennessee. Now, three Blue Devil’s have been dismissed from the team for violation of team conduct. Early Sunday, gun shots were fired outside of a campus dorm by three Duke football players. In fear and panic, Police were called to the scene and were they recovered the discharged handgun. As a result, John Drew, Kyle Griswold, and Brandon Putnam were all...
Since being booted out of Tinseltown in 2004, Ed Orgeron has done everything in his power to come back to the west coast. With Lane Kiffin surprisingly dropping Tennessee for the Trojans, the door opened for Orgeron to pack his bags and follow Kiffin. Unfortunately, it looks like Orgeron wanted to take more than his personal belongings to Southern California. Prior to departing Knoxville, Orgeron contacted Tennessee’s mid-term enrollees and offered them a piece of advice–do not attend class this semester if you...
In a college football world where we expect loyalty and commitment to teams from our student athletes, college football coaches are able to pick up and leave on a whim without any penalty. The double standard is glaring. This young off-season has seen more coaching twists from L.A. to Knoxville, than a One Tree Hill episode. Former Cincy coach Brian Kelly started the snowball effect which is now infull speed. Kelly had taken the Bearcats to a school best 12-0 season record and...
The drama in LA continues. Lane Kiffin has left the Tennessee Vols for the USC Trojans, a move that’s sending shock waves through the college football world. Kiffin just finished his first season at Tennessee going 7-6 and a Chick-fil-A bowl appearance. Kiffin will replace legendary coach Pete Carroll, who left USC this past weekend for the Seattle Seahawks. Kiffin previously coached at ‘SC from 2001-2006 and then left for the Oakland Raiders. After a tumultuous one and a...
Tennessee safety Eric Berry announced Thursday night that he will be leaving UT early for the NFL. Berry made the announcement shortly after Virgina Tech steamrolled the Vols 37-14. Berry’s departure shouldn’t surprise many as he’s projected to be the first player taken in this year’s draft according to many pundits. The 2009 Jim Thorpe trophy winner has had an illustrious collegiate career and leaves Tennessee as arguably their best defensive player ever. While Tennessee will most definitely miss...
The Tennessee Kiffins are in the news again. This time over potential recuriting violations concerning female student ambassadors (hostesses). Kiffin and Co. are rumored to have been sending females UT hostesses to recruits’ high school football games with signs and banners pleading to get the kids to sign with UT. Lord only knows what else these young women have been doing in exchange for verbal commits. Now Mr. Miles isn’t insinuating that any promiscuous activity is going on with these young women, but...
