'17' TN ATH Tee Higgins (Clemson commit)

The Al Wilsons, Ronnie Lotts, and Jack Tatums of the world would be fined into poverty in this day and age.

With all due respect to the point you are making, there are not "Al Wilsons". There is just one. Thank God.

If "Al Wilson" ever becomes a plural noun I expect FEMA to install a new emergency preparedness alarm that will be played internationally when they get within a few zip codes of each other.

And I expect that alarm to be Rocky Top.

Yeah I know what you mean. One of the worst calls that was upheld I've ever seen, except the 4th and short that the refs overturned for Vandy that allowed them to score the game winning TD.

I had almost completely forgotten about that reversal against Vandy. There is ABSOLUTELY NO WAY that they could tell what that QB's forward progress was on that play. No way. They handed Franklin the win with that BS.

I agree that by the letter of the rule the play shouldn't have been overturned, but the only way that wasn't a first down is if the QB was carrying the ball behind his back. Still, it's Vandy and there's no excuse for us putting the game in a position where the ref could decide it.

It was still the wrong call. We got jobbed. Simple as that.

Why? Bad exactly how to you quantify that to "factor in?
Hall of fame is determined by on filed results - not in locker room results

*field

So do you let murderers or rapists in if they had great on field results? I think it's about who represented the league well, which would include on and off the field.

Come on now.. How is being an a$$hole of a team mate/person even remotely comparable to being a murderer or rapist..

That's quite a stretch don't you think?
