11essee WR Jauan Jennings dismissed from team

I watched it too.
My impression is that it was youthful stupidity, but I have some reservations about kicking him off team unless he asked to be dismissed. I'll bet there aren't many players who disagree with him, and seeing him get booted for saying out loud what they all think is probably just going to lead to more dissension. The week after the coach everyone hates gets fired, it's probably better to try to talk to this frustrated young man than to kick him out. That's like punishing a kid for acting out while his parents are getting divorced.
As for the language, LOL, gonna need to get a translator for all the use of the n-word.
I never really thought about this until now, but since the topic has come up.
Our players seem to genuinely like Coach Saban.

Scuttlebutt on VolNation is that Jennings asked Hoke to let him play against Vandy. Apparently he's been injured the majority of the season and Hoke told him NO! No one seems to know what happened next, but the prevailing thought is he blasted Hoke, who then went to the AD.
The video is apparently shot after he was dismissed for what/how he said what he said to Hoke.
If that's true, I agree on sending him packing.

I’ve looked for the video but haven’t found it. My computer is having trouble loading pages the past couple of days.
The Vols are not bowl eligible so their season is over on Saturday. If all the guy did was disrespect the coaching staff, doesn’t it make more sense to give him a one game suspension?
Is there anything other than frustration that would cause a player to make such a video? If so, he needs guidance, not dismissal. I bet Coach Saban would have handled this “internally.”

I think Brady Hoke is an "ok" type of coach. He did well @ Ball State & San Diego St. and ran into a mess a Michigan. Even there he had a little success even beating Ohio St. (Yes, I know they were on probation). Giving the financial situation @ UT I think this is the type of coach they'll get. Also the SECe is a hot mess right now he could lead them to 9-3 every year and might get to 10 with a bowl win. I understand they have wealthy boosters, but I don't think this job is attractive to a big name coach right now. That might change, and I could be proven wrong. I don't see a big name who has a big buy out making his way to UT. Do I think this will actually happen? Of course not, just saying UT could do worse that's for sure. Stranger things have happened. Plus, Bama would continue its domination over them as long as he would be there

If they hired Hoke as their full time coach the Vol fans might riot in the streets.I think Brady Hoke is an "ok" type of coach.

It would be glorious to behold the meltdown [emoji3]

Eventually, reality will sink in, and 11RC will realize they are not a destination, for any "name" coach. Hoke is about as good as they are going to get, so they might as well go "all in", and get it over with.
Then the meltdown can resume..................and it will be glorious!
It might rival their anger when Kiffin bolted for USC. It couldn't happen to a better fan base. Foolmer is probably power snacking thru a couple dozen chocolate covered.
