'10 GA WR Markeith Ambles - USC Commit

[jarvol]

How is it possible that someone is a VOLS fan and doesn't know what the OCI is? Really, I'm at a loss here...

:shakehead: Facepalm...

That's exactly what I was thinking. Obviously they aren't alumni.

 

[DownTheField]

So at 2154 est we still have no idea if ambles is in town or not. Noone can confirm this. oh well :no::bad::boredom::search:

I'm pretty sure we confirmed he was last seen at the last lap

In some sense, Brother Jack's was about as far from the strip as possible, where it could be argued that no sane or sober student would ever want to venture. It could best be described as in the heart of the project about a block or two from the Knoxville College campus. Seems like it was also where a couple of roads intersected. Jack was as nice as he could be, and the pig burgers and bbq was served on regular white loaf bread. Looking back, it was probably a fairly dangerous excursion, but think Krystal times 1000 when you have been out drinking and you'll get a flavor for the attraction. It could never be replicated. Trust me there were not a lot of people at UT that were aware it even existed IMO.

hmm... never heard of it... musta been worth it to go into the hood!

Gus Kampas is furious at the exclusion of The Varsity Inn from this discussion.

good point... as is The Torch..

 

[hatvol96]

Surely it doesn't still exist!?!?

It doesn't. Hasn't for quite some time.

 

[jarvol]

not all vol fans are former or current students. Some have never even been on campus. Some never been to a game of any sport. yet they are some of the biggest fans you could ever meet.

Brother Jack's had that old wooden stump he used to cut the meat on back on the other side of the expressway. The place I used to get chicken sandwiches at was on the back side of Ft. Sanders.

Maybe the sighting of Nance & Rogers will be true.

I hope so man

Oops! Sorry Gus. And Stephanos on import beer night. The Strip rocked back in the day. I wish I had all the quarters I stuck into those old Electronic Wizard machines back in the day too.

Wow you guys are getting excited because he is visiting to mess things up? This is Kiffins plan, and he is USC bound... Don't get excited at all it isnt worth it.

using dial-up? oh, welcome to VN.. if you ever see this, that is

 

[jwells]

It doesn't. Hasn't for quite some time.

That's unfortunate. The guy talked about it like he had it last week. I must have confused it with the 12 other BBQ joints he told me about in the region.

What about some place down Sutherland? Can't remember the name.

yep!!!! ivy's on lake used to have several video games too... I remember playing a lot of galaga there...

roughly where cool beans is now..

 

[jarvol]

I went into OCI for a burger and a beer 2 summers ago. The old timers on the strip are getting reamed these days. It's a tough business with 18-21 year old clientele except on game days. Still, a great place.

A lot of the old hangouts are gone. Last Lap, the Library, Ivy's, Quarters.

It is probably a good thing Quarters got shutdown. I'd never have gotten out of there with a degree otherwise.

should we design a non-alum avatar so the pure-bloods can avoid us?

Miserable post.

Really? Is this your stomach growling that tells you this or do you have a real source?

 

[NMVol]

Then there was place right on a corner, a northeast corner, of Cumberland mid strip where you could get three chili cheese dogs 24/7 for $1.

Chaney won't be coaching quarterbacks, but I am sure he will play a big part in developing them like he always has wherever he's been.

With the hire of an OL coach it now looks like Chaney might be coaching QB. It seems like the most likely scenario. It contradicts what Nance said but maybe things changed. Chaney has never coached RB and if Hinshaw is the QB coach then Chaney would have to coach RB.

Brother Jack's wasn't like any other of the BBQ places in Kville.
If you were extremely brave, he would share a little moonshine with you.....in case you hadn't had enough to get you down there in the first place!
