Wes, ask Dooley if there's any chance that we go go back to having both teams wear their respective home colors.

Amen! I'm not sure if they can this season. I hope they do, but have my doubts. Had 2 weeks to "get it fixed" and no improvement to speak of. When you average 38 points a game on offense in the SEC, we should be at 4 - 2 or even 5 - 1 at this point.

when I joined this board earlier this year the participants were knowledgable football fans who supported the Vols. That was a great improvement over the self appointed Tennessee football experts at the govolextra.com boards that appeared to hate everything about Tennessee Athletics an through their thoughtless comments are on track to severly hurt the program. Apparently those people don't understand the power of the internet. Whenever we post anywhere we should realize that an 18 year old player we are excessively
criticising is going to see the post or an opposing coach is going to use it against us in recruiting. Coach Dooley and his assistants are working hard to build a program in a very difficult time so let's not try to make their job more difficult. Constructive criticism is fine but over the hateful comments are only distructive

Teague has played his heart out for Tennessee since he's been here, as a WR and then as a corner. He simply is not physically gifted. While I appreciate his efforts, I do hope we have more talented players developing.
