Sports Soundoff: Funny article from Alabama.... "Isn't it funny how Tennessee and Auburn fans are calling about how many times they did this or how many times they did that against Alabama? They say Alabama fans live in the past, but all I see is Tennessee talking about the past and Auburn talking about the past. In the past 20 years, let's see how many SEC titles and national championships these teams have. Editor's note: Since 1985, Tennessee has won or shared five SEC titles, Auburn has four and Alabama three. Alabama and Tennessee have one national title each in that time period."

QB outlook Scout.com: QB outlook: "After watching Tennessee’s first full-scale scrimmage of the spring, offensive coordinator David Cutcliffe felt a little better about the quarterback position than he did beforehand. Ainge was 14 of 23 for 178 yards and a touchdown. Crompton was 10 of 16 for 106 yards and three TDs. Hardegree was 13 of 19 for 87 yards and a score. All told, the three combined to complete 37 of 58 passes for 371 yards and 5 TDs with ZERO interceptions."
A Basketball Tradition? Is Bruce Pearl the guy? Maybe so. UT’s betting he is
:: Metro Pulse Online ::: "Pearl took his first-year team to the SEC East title and the NCAA tournament, where the Vols were accorded a No. 2 seed. Though they lost their second game in the tourney, the fans stayed behind them, praising their accomplishments rather than dwelling on their loss, and taking a wait-’til-next-year approach that hasn’t been evident around UT basketball for decades."

Make the quick fix or risk a quick fall SportingNews.com - College Football - Make the quick fix or risk a quick fall: "Phillip Fulmer, Tennessee. The '05 Vols were the biggest underachievers of the past two decades. So Fulmer, like Coker and Franchione, retooled his staff and started over this spring. The only difference: He brought former offensive coordinator David Cutcliffe back into the fold instead of searching for new ideas.
Then again, when Cutcliffe had the Tennessee offense rolling in the 1990s, it didn't matter that everyone in the stadium knew what it was doing. This, though, will be Cutcliffe's biggest test. He must rebuild quarterback Erik Ainge's confidence and give the offense an identity again -- something it hasn't had since 2001. And he has to do it fast.
Boosters -- and eventually administrators -- get antsy when change doesn't result in change.
When a quick fix doesn't translate to a quick fix."
