'18 TN OL Tanner Antonutti (UT signee)

Ugh... y’all are exhausting

So let’s say he by some miracle wins the starting right tackle spot (just example) you would actively not hope or root for him to do well because he made a poor choice to joy ride with a friend and sing “and Tennessee too!”

Seems petty and not sure any of us should expect an an apology or else! Lol

I can see apologizing to teammates but a public apology makes no difference to me one way or the other. I just see it as a mistake by a teenager.

I didn't say apologize or else. When he says eff Tennessee he becomes insignificant to me. I couldn't care less less about him. I doesn't appear he cares that much about how VOL fans feel about him either so I guess we're even.

You're the one acting like a snowflake, pitching a hissy fit because others don't share your love affair with a signee that says eff Tennessee.

👎🏻 I’m trying to talk about why we should be excited to have this kid at Tennessee, rather than focus on a misstep.

Think this kid will be a great player for us... any new news on where he will play, TE, OL or other?

Assuming he has read this mess and is aware of VolNation's 'outrage', it might be the best way for him. Ignore it, move on and be ready to ball when he gets here..

He really doesn't owe any of us anything...

Like I said, kid's got a lot to prove to me both on and off the field before I become a fan. He's started off on the wrong foot imo. Can he over come? Sure. Him going on social media and saying eff Tennessee and not feeling compelled to address his misstep makes me question if he will. Thrilled for you that you can overlook him disrespecting the school that just gave him an opportunity to play D1 football, in his home state. Some hold this university in higher regard.

No..what you are doing is insulting everybody that is understandably upset at this dude for being a prick towards Tennessee with his butt buddy Cade Mays.

I don't see this dude ever doing much unless as a blocking TE.
 
great tackle, but sorry, why are we supposed to be impressed by this clip? Nobody picks the kid up and he goes untouched into the backfield... my 45yr old ass could have made that tackle...
If he is so athletic and next level talent, why isn't he ranked higher?
Hopefully he produces here and becomes ALL Vol...

Are you excited about Ollie Lane?

I agree. He doesn't owe any of us anything and we don't owe him our fandom either. That is precisely why idgaf about this kid one way or another.

Which could and will be important to winning? Yes
I think he will definitely contribute.

Reasonable thinking! Thank you I’m not the only one.

We are in agreement. I don't care one way or the other. I guess I'm just amazed that this is still a topic of conversation..

If he hadn't have been a prick and said what he said..he would not.

You are a nobody fan just like me... this kid just signed on to put in three times as much work as the normal college student. Do you have any idea how much work goes into being a college athlete.... not like we did him a huge favor by giving him a scholarship, he will work for it! We honestly do owe him respect for selecting UT and agreeing to sacrifice hours, body and next four years. I’ll take that as apology.

In order to apologize for something you have to aknowlege you messed up. He's not done that. You can forgive someone regardless of whether the person asked for it or not. Sounds like this is where you're at. Good for you.

Like I said, if he wants my fandom, he's got to earn it. I'm not immediately going to be a cheerleader for him, especially since the last thing I've heard him say is eff Tennessee, the team, the state he's playing for.

I’m sure Tanner can’t sleep at night knowing a handful of people on a message board may or may not give their support to him.

This is still an issue for some?

I'm sure it's more than a handful on a message board but I doubt he gives a shat regardless, same with me, I don't give a shat about him either.
