Our sweet Cooper was baptized today. To know that our baby is a Christ follower and has made the decision to walk with Him gives us such peace. I couldn’t be more proud. Thank you, Jesus, for this gift and the promise it brings. All glory and praise to God!!
Please tell me I’m not the only American who thinks giving 8 year olds RINGS for winning a weekend baseball tournament is absolutely ridiculous...
Come on, y’all.
My name is Kelly. I’m at the beach. And I kinda like Tennessee…a lot. 😆🧡 When you’re at the beach with a bunch of LSU fans, you gotta step up your orange game.
Go Vols!
#GBO
The people calling for Heupel to be put on the hot seat obviously have verrrrrrrrry short memories, and honestly, it blows my mind. We won THREE games 3 years ago. Dude went 11-2 last year.
Get a freakin grip…
Our fanbase sometimes…
#vols
Today I got to ask my oldest son who is a LSU fan like his dad, “Between football, basketball, and baseball, how many SEC championships did LSU win this year.
He said: zero
I got to say: we won two
Then my youngest son and I high-fived and sang Rocky Top 🧡🍊
#vols
#SECChamps
And a SPIRITUAL leader to top all the rest of what he does. This is simply the best thing I’ve seen in a while. He leads his team in every way, this being the most important. My favorite Vol without question.
Our yearly tradition of a Tennessee bowl game. Dad and me. It’s pretty special, and one I hope continues for years and years to come. Citrus Bowl, you were great 🧡
This morning I had the privilege of walking to the front of the church with my baby who confirmed to our church family that he is a Christ follower saved by grace through faith. He made a public statement by turning his lightbulb, representing another life saved from darkness ❤️
Been around it my whole life…I’m a coach…husband is a college coach…and yet, it never ceases to amaze me the ease at which the average Joe who played high school sports can sit at home and judge coaches, swearing they have ALL the answers 🙄
Not only did we (finally) get out of the house, put on real clothes, and style our hair, but we watched our head coach become the 3rd winningest coach in NE history! Pretty proud family right here
@cordwright
This little Vol found out he’s heading back to Neyland! It might not be a nail biter game (it better NOT be, anyway) but when your dad is a college b-ball coach, you have limited weekends to go. No matter what, we are gonna have a big time pulling on our big orange!! 🧡
When one of your dearest friends coaches at Georgia Tech, so you go to Ole Miss to watch him in action, BUT it’s also gameday for your Vols, you wear orange to the Grove.
I’m not sorry.
Got some looks, but was surprised how many “Go Vols” I got as well.
Each week in my class, I do what I call "Motivation Monday" and you,
@inkyjohnson
have been our motivator the last 2 weeks. You're incredible at what you do. Thank u for showing me & my students that life isn't about the trials it presents, it's about your response to them.
#GBO
Champions. I love the sound of that.
So proud of this man, his staff, this team. This group is one of my favorites all time.
Proud doesn’t even begin to explain it.
@cordwright
@NEMCCBasketball
One of the most powerful things I’ve seen...
I stumbled onto this when I walked out of practice this afternoon. I just stood in awe watching these men and women silently pay tribute to their fallen brothers & sisters. 110 flights of stairs. Each step in remembrance
#NeverForget
Boy, did we LOVE seeing our guy
@ShaqLeroy
We are so dang proud of this young man. He deserves every bit of success he’s experiencing. We love him like our own. Once a Tiger, forever a Tiger. Keep doing what you do, Shaq. ❤️🏀🐯🏀❤️
@cordwright
@NE_BSKETBALL
I’ve said it before but VolTwitter is amazing. Most of you don’t even know where Booneville HS is, but when the announcement was shared yesterday about me coaching, my fellow Vols showed out with lots of love. I sure appreciate y’all & I’m glad to be a part of it all 🧡
Go Vols
Our son, Cannon McKenzie, is now our brother in Christ ❤️
Our sweet boy made the decision to accept Jesus as Lord of his life, and will soon be baptized. We couldn’t be more proud of this decision and we can’t wait to see him grow in his walk! To God be all the glory
@cordwright
Out of 314 JUCO programs in the country, look who made the list of the Top 55 JUCO coaches!!! I WISH y'all knew how hard this man works and how much he deserves this recognition! He's number one in OUR house!
@cordwright
so so proud of you.
He’ll never share this, but I sure will! Basketball Times Magazine (read nationwide) did an awesome write-up on
@cordwright
and
@NE_BSKETBALL
Just when I thought I couldn’t be more proud, he proves me wrong. Highlighted my favorite part...it’s so true ❤️🏀
#bestinthebusiness
This kid. To say I love him would be an understatement. He’s worked SO hard for this opportunity. To have him and Ja back in the same organization, one so close to home, I see God’s hand all over this 🙌🏼 So deserved. What a story. I’ve yet to stop crying. So, so proud
@ShaqLeroy
FSU going undefeated, winning their league without their starting QB, and then getting snubbed in the Playoff is a travesty. Wins and losses matter in every other scenario, but not this one? And don’t talk eye test, either, because Bama against Auburn certainly didn’t pass that.
I'm a Tenn fan and yeah, I may be biased, but I stand by this with my whole heart:
Every now and again there is a team that's just different, SPECIAL. Their chemistry permeates every gym and sucks you in. You FEEL it. That was this Vol team. Special indeed
#Vols
#VolNation
3 years ago, I hung up my whistle and started doing private lessons, never considering getting back on the sidelines again, but God had different plans, and I’m excited to share that I’ll be coaching volleyball once more at Booneville High School. Ready to get to work!! 💙💛
Ja Morant is unbelievable. No doubt. His triple double today was unreal. But let me tell you, Murray wouldn't still be dancing without
@ShaqLeroy
I'm so unbelievably proud of my guy. I've cried. I've cheered. Let's keep dancing, Shaq!!!! Mama loves you!
Our sweet Cooper made the greatest decision of his life tonight when he asked Jesus to be his savior. My baby has been saved! It's this mama's proudest moment. He has a true love for the gospel and I can't wait to see my sweet little boy baptized soon! Truly, my heart could burst
Booneville, MS:
Also known as Hoop City.
College team playing for a Region Championship tomorrow and Saturday
BOTH high school teams playing for state titles Saturday.
Potential for lots of hardware making it back to Boonevegas
I’m here for it.
Let’s win it all 🖤💛💙💛
Our baby turns 10 today. And what a special birthday it has been as he made a public declaration of his faith by being baptized. He had sooooo many special people there, and it made me so happy to see how many love our boy. Happy bday Cannon. This one is special.
@cordwright
I’m all for coaches and players using their platform to bring glory to God.
I said it. I’m not at all sorry. Our platforms differ, but it’s all the same…
#spreadJesus
We are a 4A program who has to beat 5A teams to win a state championship. That being said, our girls never quit against a team who, tonight, was better than us. Couldn't be more proud of the great season we had. With NO seniors, next year is limitless in what we can accomplish.
Came to Memphis for the first round games. Because my husband’s former head coach now works at Houston, I didn’t wear my orange. BUT I walk into the suite and what do I see? ORANGE.
How it started…how it ended.
Couldn’t possibly be more proud of this man. He got his 100th win tonight against Vol State 91-80. What he’s done here at
#NEMCC
has been nothing short of special. He deserves every single bit of it.

Every day I pray for God to guide me in raising bold Christian leaders. Today, our Cooper was asked to pray over our Children’s minister’s family. He never hesitated. I pray he’s always this bold and fearless in his faith. Please help us continue to pray for the Nanney family ❤️
If you’re going JUCO, why would you NOT want to play here?!?!
@NEMCCBasketball
Atmosphere was unreal tonight in the win against arch rival, ICC.
If you’re not part of this, you’re missing out.
MBK | FINAL: No. 17 Northeast 80, Hinds 62.

outscores the Bulldogs by 2⃣4⃣ points after the break & comes from behind to capture a HUGE postseason victory!!!

Last regular season game today. How did it get here so quickly?! The idea of waking up next Saturday to no Tennessee football is beyond depressing.
Let’s get this last one in Neyland, Vols!
#GBO
This kid woke up at 3:30am to get on his dad’s team’s bus at 4:30 and travel four hours to a juco jamboree where the team will play 4 games today. His response when I asked, “are you sure you want to do all that?”
“I have to, Mom, I’m Daddy’s assistant coach.” ❤️
@cordwright
Joe put on a show today. I’m glad to see him go out like that. You can say what you want, but Joe has been more than loyal to his team and his university. He is a true VFL, and I’m so happy his last game in Neyland went like it did.
Go Vols forever 🧡
Hands down the coolest thing I’ve experienced here at CHS! We are privileged to have 3 teachers who are veterans and after leading us in the Pledge, the entire school surprised them with THIS. Chill bumps galore. What a great start to the day! Thanks to all who serve!! 🇺🇸❤️
Had the team over for our yearly end of the year gathering tonight. They ate over 30 pounds of crawfish and got in some whiffle ball.
But it’s this moment that sums up the culture of

It’s a family. It’s much love. It’s forever.

I couldn't be more proud of the Buchanan brothers and their tournament appearances. What a special thing!

the career you had was so very special. You exceeded any and all expectations. It was a joy to be a part of it.
We are so proud of you both

Positive Tweet Alert:
Cannon made a friend while in Biloxi. He didn’t care that she looked different than him, or even that she suffered from MS &couldn’t splash in the pool. He only cared that she was a kid who wanted to play. And they did...for over 30 mins. Take note.
#love
Saw Daddy off as he leaves for the Region Tournament. Could be a long week without him, but if he stays gone that means he's winning. So that being said, we hope we don't see you til Friday! We love you and are so proud. Go get 'em!
@cordwright
Well, the secret is out! Here's the reaction...think they were a little overwhelmed. Cannon asked if we could stay the night there 😂 Can't wait to make sweet memories with or family.
#wrightsdodisney
@cordwright
Northeast Tigers are MS Juco State Champs! This team has battled all year long with zero quit. I couldn’t be prouder of them, or the man leading them ❤️
I’m going to bed a proud, proud wife tonight. Regional tourney up next…let’s get it.
@cordwright
Goodbyes are hard…
Today was hard.
These boys did an amazing job reading scripture at my grandmother’s service. They were her whole world, and I know she would have loved hearing those sweet voices reading from the word of God. It was special, much like she was.
We all know I’m wearing orange every Saturday in the fall, so how perfect is it that my baby’s youth league basketball team ended up being Tennessee?! Go big orange all the way!!!
Now let’s go get buckets! 🧡
#GBO
Tonight during prayers our Cooper said, “Thank you for giving me parents who love and trust in You, so I can learn to love and trust in You, too”.
I may fail daily as a parent, but I pray I never fail our boys in that way, because THAT is what it’s all about

39 deaths in the US. 39 deaths, y’all. You’re telling me this isn’t political???
Things are being cancelled because it’s the politically correct thing to do. The media will destroy anyone who DOESN’T do it. Its ALL politics. Buy all the TP you want, but it’s true.
Not only did he play in a NBA game, he scored 5 points in 8 minutes. I can’t even put into words what this experience was like for Cord and me. To watch
@ShaqLeroy
dream come true right in front of our eyes was one of the most special moments I’ve ever experienced.
@cordwright
Happy Birthday to my best friend and the love of my life.
@cordwright
you are the best part of me. The boys and I love you more than we could possibly express. I met you when you were 21, now here we are at 43. What a ride. You are simply the best, Cord. Cheers to year 43!
Then came the morning that sealed the promise
Your buried body began to breathe
Out of the silence, the roaring lion
Declared the grave has no claim on me
Jesus, yours is the victory, whoa!
He is Risen!!!
Hallelujah!
@cordwright
What. A. Year.
Beat Florida. Beat LSU. Beat Bama. Beat Clemson.
Witnessed Hooker’s greatness both on the field and off.
We became relevant. No more moral victories. Tennessee football was REALLY fun again. And Miami was AMAZING. I loved every second.

Last night at the lake house, the boys called me upstairs. I had no idea why, but when I got up there, they led me onto the deck and said, “Mama, we want to pray with you under the stars, and thank God for our house and our family.” 😭 So we did.
We are doing SOMETHING right
Big night for Cord and his guys as they got their championship 💍. This group is so special. And watching Cooper experience it all with his daddy made the experience all that sweeter.
So proud of ALL my guys ❤️

@NEMCCBasketball
So the coolest thing happened-
One of Cord’s old college teammates brought his son to Cord’s camp all the way from Maryland! We laughed & told old stories until we ran out of them. It just proves it’s bigger than just the game. It’s about the people the game brings into your life
Tournament day! Both teams won first match of the day. Here’s a little varsity action...Greene sister with the set, Greene sister with the kill. Magic.
