Top-10 things Tennessee fans said to AD John Currie when he tweeted about UT tennis
The Tennessee Volunteers are a mess right now, and many fans have turned on coach Butch Jones, who is in his fifth year as the head coach.
Many fans were surprised Jones was still employed by the university on Sunday afternoon, figuring he’d be fired by Sunday morning after a lopsided loss to Alabama.
However, Jones is still around heading into this weekend’s game against Kentucky, and fans aren’t happy about it.
Therefore, when AD John Currie tweeted out a message about the Vols’ tennis team on Sunday evening, fans immediately jumped all over him.
The tweet itself was an innocent plea for Volunteer fans to go support the tennis team, as you can see below:
If your schedule permits, come cheer on Timo tomorrow in the ITA Regional Championship! ?? https://t.co/25klsNL6bY
