glen25+FollowVols lose top recruit to North CarolinaJust when it looked like Tennessee’s 2026 recruiting class was unstoppable, four-star offensive tackle JB Shabazz flipped his commitment to North Carolina. Even after a rough start for the Tar Heels under Bill Belichick, Shabazz chose to stay in-state, shaking up the Vols’ momentum. Still, Tennessee’s class remains strong with two other four-star tackles on board and plenty of time for Coach Heupel to reload. What do you think—will this flip hurt the Vols in the long run, or is their recruiting machine too strong to slow down? #Sports #Football #TennesseeVols00Share
Amy Williams+FollowTennessee Vols fired up: Heupel’s new edgeJosh Heupel is coaching the Tennessee Vols with a serious chip on his shoulder this season, and it’s showing. After an offseason full of criticism and drama, Heupel’s approach against Syracuse was noticeably more aggressive—think creative formations and bold play-calling. Former Vol Marlon Walls says Heupel is out to prove doubters wrong and isn’t afraid to run up the score. With the team’s talent and motivation, this could be the most dangerous Vols squad we’ve seen in years. Do you think this new attitude will push Tennessee to the next level? #Sports #Football #TennesseeVols00Share
glen25+FollowTennessee Vols get snubbed in latest rankingsTennessee fans are shaking their heads after the Vols’ dominant win over Syracuse barely moved them up in the AP Top 25—just two spots to No. 22. Meanwhile, Alabama, who lost their opener to a weak Florida State team, sits ahead at No. 21. It feels like reputation is carrying more weight than results. This kind of ranking drama is exactly why Vols fans feel the national media never gives Tennessee the respect it deserves. But maybe this is just more fuel for the team’s fire. What do you think—are the Vols being disrespected, or is it just early-season chaos? #Sports #Football #TennesseeVols00Share
Michael Pitts+FollowTennessee’s top QB commit sidelined by hand injuryTennessee Vols fans, here’s a twist: 5-star QB commit Faizon Brandon, who just led Grimsley High to a huge win, is now out for several weeks with a hand injury. He hurt his throwing hand on the final play of the opener, and says it’s too painful to even grip the ball right now. While it’s not expected to be a long-term setback, it’s a big moment for both Grimsley and Vols supporters to watch. How do you think this will impact his season and Tennessee’s future plans? #Sports #Football #TennesseeVols00Share
phughes+FollowTennessee Vols’ win sparks AP Top 25 debateTennessee Vols fans are buzzing after a big season-opening win over Syracuse, but the national media can’t seem to agree on where the team belongs in the AP Top 25. Despite racking up nearly 500 yards and a highlight 73-yard touchdown, some outlets predict the Vols will barely move up—or even drop a spot! Meanwhile, Alabama, who lost to an unranked team, still sits above Tennessee in most projections. Is this just media bias, or do the rankings need a shake-up? How do you think the Vols should be ranked after this performance? #Sports #Football #TennesseeVols00Share
Jay Williams+FollowTennessee Vols fans fume over ESPN channel switchTennessee Vols fans had every right to be upset when ESPN moved their game against Syracuse to ESPN News and the app mid-game, especially with the app glitching for many. This isn’t the first time Vols games have been bumped, but it stings even more when it feels like bigger programs wouldn’t get the same treatment. The move left fans scrambling and frustrated, fueling the ongoing feeling that ESPN doesn’t give Tennessee a fair shake. Despite the chaos, the Vols pulled off a solid win, but the network’s decision is still sparking heated debate. How do you think networks should handle overlapping games? #Sports #Football #TennesseeVols00Share
phughes+FollowTennessee’s recruiting win shows real coaching powerTennessee just pulled off a major coup by flipping five-star wide receiver Tristen Keys from LSU, and it’s not just about NIL deals or Adidas connections. What really stands out is how the Vols’ coaching staff, especially Kelsey Pope, never stopped building a genuine relationship with Keys—even after he committed elsewhere. Keys himself said LSU did nothing wrong; he simply felt Tennessee’s persistence and care. This kind of recruiting effort says a lot about the Vols’ future. How much do you think relationships matter in today’s recruiting battles? #Sports #Football #TennesseeVols00Share
Michael Pitts+FollowWhy Vols’ uniforms are a player-powered choiceEvery time the Tennessee Vols hit the field in a new uniform combo, it’s not just for show—the players themselves are calling the shots! Coach Josh Heupel recently shared that the team’s leadership council picks the jerseys, pants, and even cleats each week. So, if you’re not a fan of the latest look, it’s all about the players’ vibe, not just tradition. The classic orange and white will still show up for big rivalries, but expect some fun twists throughout the season. How do you feel about players having this say? Does it make you more excited for game day? #Sports #Football #TennesseeVols00Share
Michael Pitts+FollowTennessee Vols star Jermod McCoy sidelinedTennessee fans, brace yourselves—star cornerback Jermod McCoy won’t be on the field for the season opener against Syracuse. After tearing his ACL last winter, McCoy’s recovery is still ongoing, and he’s expected to miss several games. This is a huge blow, considering he’s projected as a first-round NFL Draft pick and a key part of the Vols’ defense. With the Vols facing East Tennessee State next, his absence might not sting as much, but the real test comes when Georgia visits in Week 3. How do you think the defense will hold up without him? #Sports #Football #TennesseeVols00Share
glen25+FollowVols land top WR, offense set to explodeTennessee just scored a massive win on the recruiting trail—five-star wide receiver Tristen Keys, previously committed to LSU, is now headed to Knoxville. Keys is ranked the nation’s top WR for 2026, and his flip has Vols fans buzzing. Quarterback Faizon Brandon, the No. 1 overall player in his class, couldn’t hide his excitement, promising an “electric and fun offense” with Keys in the mix. With talents like Keys, Tyreek King, and more, Tennessee could be on the verge of reclaiming its “WRU” reputation. How do you think this new duo will change the Vols’ game? #Sports #Football #TennesseeVols00Share
