Live look at Tennesssee baseball as described by a game day thread.

lolol The kid that got hit in the face... Lord, forgive me for laughing.

Almost right in the middle. Just in front of Cox middle school. That picture was from Fire Station 3 right behind my neighborhood, right before we lost power.

You closer to 65 or Columbia?

Was there a Kardashian sighting? If so well worth it especially if the Kardashian was Kendall Jenner.

She is a lovely young lady, yes. Best of luck to her in any and all future endeavors.

 

[Jackcrevol]

Gawd...I miss those days. Thanks for making my day.

Necks year. Cannot wait.

VolNation is his family.

I am sure he sees it like that and I know many men like him. He will never let you know what he is really thinking and he is fiercely loyal. I had a man ask me once why I stuck with Tennessee because they sucked. I told him that I have and always will love Tennessee even if they make me furious sometimes. He said I was more loyal to Tennessee than he was to his wife.

There used to be a rule that you had x number of years to complete your eligibility.
I think that there was also an age limit in
D-1 level sports.

I could be wrong on both counts.
I may be right too.

I'm not that familiar with the particulars either.

There's no age limit. You generally have 5 years to play 4 in any sport from your first semester of enrollment. Your 5 for 4 clock starts the day that you enroll in classes for the first time.

Pounding a Guinness in the gravity bar at the Guinness distillery currently.

Brent Brewer was in his mid 20s when he enrolled at UT in 2010 and was playing football until 25/26 in 2013. I think he played minor league baseball for a few years straight out of HS, so his eligibility was fresh when he started at UT

 

[rikberry31]

Someone should remind them no one in this country even cared about college baseball outside of a small fringe... until TV and his Rowdy Roster and Daddy hats showed the hell up in Knoxville.

I really don't think that is the case. I know many people who for many years now have taken to watching college baseball over the MLB. I personally have followed college ball all my life. Tennessee until recent years has not been a top shelf program and I think you are correct that interest by Tennessee fans has skyrocketed with the advent of TV.

In that sport yes

35 days on the dot in the house and an insurance claim already. Is that a record?

I cant wait to see what my insurance bill jumps to after the idiots around here decide to get new roofs that they don't need.

 

[vol_in_ga]

Gun to your head…. List me 2 uncommitted guys who you think will be in this class.

Put me down for David Sanders and Travis Smith

Those are far from locks.

I’ll go lagonza and jaelyne matthews

Yessir. Doesn't matter how old you are, just when you enroll for the first time. Chris Weinke, Kelly Washington too.

My next door neighbor growing up was halfbacker from 'Minhattun' via Ft Lauderdale - a point which he brought up many, many times, in casual conversation.

Napoleon was literally outside his house, during a hail storm investigating the roof.

The amount of fraud claims after storms is ludicrous, same for fraudulent contractors.

He got a new roof out of the deal. A fact that still chaps my ass, two decades later.

He was extremely wealthy, a fact he brought up many many times, in casual conversation. Meanwhile there's folks with broken roofs that cannot afford to fix.

Attempting to protect the big business of NCAA. I’m soooo shocked.

Congressmen pitch bill to legally protect NCAA

Two Republican Congressmen introduced a bill that would provide the NCAA, college conferences and member schools federal protection from legal challenges that stand in the way of their ability to govern college sports.

The headline should be, "Nick and Dabo Introduce Legislation to Restore Their Fiefdom."

I can literally see the different door-to-door roof salesman walking around the neighborhood after a slight storm comes through. Makes me wanna steal @TN-POSSUM 's Frankenstein choking someone gif.

Love me some Bobby Hill.

Id love to know the kickbacks those tools got for pitching this ********. No one in their right mind believes protecting NCAA is best for all.

Saban, Kirby, and Dabo does…and a good portion of their fanbase believe it as well.

Of course, teams used to winning will do anything to keep the under the table bs going. Its criminal how obvious it is.
