Tennessee Vols head coach Josh Heupel didn't bite on a question about a fake quote that's been circulating on social media this week that's been attributed to Alabama Crimson Tide head coach Kalen DeBoer.
The fake quote, which originated from an AI created video, has DeBoer downplaying the loudness of Neyland Stadium.
DeBoer never made that comment this week.
On Wednesday night, during Vol Calls, Heupel was asked by a fan about that DeBoer "quote".
"Kalen DeBoer says it's loud in Washington, he's not worried about the noise (at Neyland), what say you," said the fan ("Uncle Orange") to Heupel.
"Yeah, man, it needs to be Neyland loud," responded Heupel. "Which can be even louder than it was last Saturday, too. I'm telling you, it's an electric atmosphere every Saturday — afternoon or night, doesn't matter. That thing better be, and I know it will be, jumping on Saturday when that ball gets ready to tee off. Should be juicy long before that, too."
That was a good job by Heupel to gloss over the fake quote from DeBoer. The last thing that any SEC coach wants to do is to get into a war of words over a quote that's not even real.
