Tennessee’s homecoming game could be the most depressing in school history based on these tweets

It might be best if the University of Tennessee-related Twitter accounts just took a few weeks off at this point.
Fans want coach Butch Jones fired, but the Vols have made no moves toward making that a reality as of yet, despite an 0-5 start to SEC play.
When the university’s official account sent out a tweet asking alums if they planned to come back to Knoxville for Saturday’s homecoming game, the responses were… predictable:
Are you coming home sweet home for Homecoming? ? Be sure to follow @tennalum for everything you need to know. We can't wait to see you! pic.twitter.com/rpKsptkyYS

It’s safe to say most Vol fans will not be returning to Knoxville for homecoming, as these responses to the above tweet strongly indicate:

No. I’m not. The leadership at my school has shown they don’t care if I come home.

hell no. You don't care about alums. If you did we wouldn't be laughing stocks

Based on these responses, Saturday’s game at Neyland Stadium may feel more like a home game for Southern Miss.
