Customer Reviews
Eclectic Opinions with Orange Tinted Glasses
I’ve listened to many podcasts over the years that cover a variety of subjects. The result is a standard that’s likely higher than the average listener of a college sports focused show. The opinions provided are from a few journalists that have covered the Vols for many years, but the senior writer (and pack leader) is clearly Brent Hubbs. The name could be less familiar than his voice, which can be heard via the University’s official Vol’s Radio Show on game days.
This podcast is a good mix of opinions, current data and both current & historical facts. In addition, it’s both entertaining & educational in many regards. The group are clearly more than just colleagues, so there’s a humor that sometimes feels like a bit too much inside baseball (Andy Griffith references), but overall it’s fun while still being informative. As with any podcast that features “sports writers,” I’ve found the mix of their knowledge about football varies from average to good. They’re both critical and supportive of the Vol’s efforts while providing explanations for those opinions.
One of several things I enjoy about the show is their coverage of recruiting. Several of the writers featured on the podcast travel the country tracking the progress with high school recruits. The most knowledgeable of the group is Matt Ray for certain. He travels weekly and provides details from individual interviews with the actual recruits and their inner circle.
If you’re seeking a show that provides a sports theme while being delivered in an entertaining way, then this is a great podcast for you.
Your Dad’s Vol Podcast
Listening to these guys recite old Andy Griffith episodes is nauseating. Ramey is the only positive on the show. Hubbs carries water as a Vol Network employee. He has been nothing but a jock sniffer his entire life.
Officiating
It’s a pretty poor take to functionally hand wave away the terrible officiating during the Alabama game this past weekend. The line about no one addressing the SEC commissioner about the garbage level of officiating is particularly weak. Part of the reason these issues with the officials persist is no public accountability, and in this broadcasters/journalists play a key role.
Do better.
