Since it is 195 days from now until opening game, I wanted to open up a thread to determine your favorite Vol-related nickname of all time. Nickname could be one acquired before entering UT or one obtained in the NFL. All Vols are eligible, not just football. Here's a list of my three favorites.....

CobbWebb
Minister of Defense
Three Meeks

Jimmy Streater
The Silva Streak

 

[IluvdoubleD's]

The Great Pumpkin

Robo Meach = Robert Meachem
TCHFCFTUTK = The Current Head Football Coach at The University of Tennessee Knoxville

No John "Jelly" Kelly yet??? That nickname was courtesy of VFL34 from this very site if I remember correctly. It was a typo that he made a few times and it stuck. HAAAAAAAAAA!! Get it??? It stuck! Jelly...stuck...
