Tony Vitello has put Tennessee baseball at the top of the mountain top in college baseball, as highlighted by Monday's College World Series national championship win over Texas A&M.

But the way Vitello celebrated after the game — jumping into the stands at Charles Schwab Field to celebrate with Vols fans, pick up pieces of ice off the ground after getting a Gatorade bath from his players and chest-bumping his players — seemed to have gotten under the skin of former Alabama football quarterback-now college football commentator Greg McElroy.

McElroy even compared Vitello's antics to the likes of a WWE wrestler.

"I just wish he didn't have the antics that he does. He's like a WWE character and it's embarrassing, seriously. To be an adult, I'd be appalled. I really would," McElroy said Tuesday on "McElroy and Cubelic In The Morning."

"I know he wins and he's great and the kids love him and all that stuff. That's awesome, but if that was a leader of my organization I would have to have a little talking to him. I just would. It's unbelievable."

McElroy also commented on the makeup of this year's Tennessee roster, comparing it, in reference, to the 2022 Vols team that lost to Notre Dame in the super regional round.

"(Tennessee) a couple years ago, I think, lost the national championship and they had the best team. I think that team was probably better than this team and I think they lost it because they didn't harness their emotions. And it's great to lean into that," McElroy said.

"But man, like I said, it's a tough team to root for. I mean, goodness gracious. His antics after the game last night were embarrassing. Seriously."

Added McElroy: "He just won a national championship. Have some class."

Vitello is 295-112 overall and 109-71 in SEC play in seven years at the helm of the Vols program, which includes now a CWS national championship title, three trips to the CWS in four years and two SEC Tournament titles.

Tennessee became the first No. 1 overall seed since Miami in 1999 to win the CWS Monday, snapping a 25-year curse of No. 1 seeds.
