The Tennessee Volunteers are ready to begin the new season with a new head coach at the helm. After suffering a heart breaking loss to their rival Vanderbilt last season, the Vols turned to their state rival and lured the HC away to greener pastures. "I'm excited to be here in Knoxville. I enjoyed my time at Vandy and felt we had done some good things there. Our overall record wasn't what I was hoping for, but we were able to make some of the other SEC schools take notice of us and not just blow us off as fodder. Hopefully, I will be able to continue that here at Neyland and get us back on our winning ways," commented Coach Wasted Memory at this press conference.
The Volunteers will open their season against an old rival coach, Ole KY Shark, who has just taken over for one of the newest FBS schools, Texas State. "This is an old rivalry and good friend. I look forward to finally being able to lead a team that is capable of beating him onto the field. To say KY has had my number would be an understatement. It'll be a good, clean, fun game...but believe me, it will be a sweet victory for us and me personally." Following that game, UT must shore up and prepare for the Oklahoma State Cowboys, no easy task. Tennessee will begin their SEC schedule after that with a few more OOC games sprinkled in over the next few weeks.
With some highly rated schools on their schedule - Florida, South Carolina, Alabama, Georgia, and many others it will be a long arduous task to come away with a winning record. Tennessee is likely to be voted near the bottom of the SEC by most coaches. However, Coach WM has high hopes but knows to keep his goals realistic.
"We've got a lot of work to do, but we should be able to come out at .500. We may need a lucky break here or there...and then who knows, maybe, just maybe we can reach one of those bowl games that's been eluding us for so long."
Vol fans everywhere are ready for the excitement to begin!
