32 Vols Make Academic Honor Roll

[Volunteer_Kirby]

That is the most in the history of our football program.

Really proud of our team and our coaches. This is a huge accomplishment. Go Vols! :rock:

Take that Harvard!

Did we get the most in the conference?

I think UGA had more.

I think UGA had more.

The fix must be in.

 

[Boca Vol]

The fix must be in.

Without a doubt. The conspiracy theories (with proof) will be rampant on here soon.

This is great to see. Education carries you further in life than athletics ever will.

We are the Oxford of the south.

Annnnnddddd…..then there is LSU

...somebody's always got to be one!

That was funny!

I'm not knocking academics but any time Jimmy Cheek and Susan Martin are brought up with their agenda of improving the academics of UT the argument from many on here is that 100K people don't show up for Science class.

Now that 34 Vols made the honor roll, we now have this "academics will take you further in life" attitude.

Ummmmm, no.

I thought that as well. And I promise you, the powers that be at LSU are more interested in winning the SEC than getting the academic honor roll to double digits.

I'm NEVER going to knock a coach or a program for academic achievement! I hear what you're saying but I think it's OK for all of us to pause for a moment and appreciate the fact that CBJ is cracking the whip in the classroom as much as he is on the field. Hell it's not like we've had much else to cheer about lately!

I totally agree with your post and your last sentence is very telling. If UT were winning on the field this wouldn't even been mentioned. :good!:

Saw this the other day, didn't see Dobbs name on the list and figured he would be with all the talk and everything. Hard major, maybe freshman don't make the list/have to have a full year.

LSU football players are about as smart as Les Miles.

I knew Dooley could recruit.

Rising to the top off the field too! :rock:

 

[General Jack]

Outstanding accomplishment, that's a stat to be proud of.

 

[cbbowlingmd]

So, wait. We have more on the academic honor roll than Vandy? But Vandy players are smarter than our boys.

 

[ItStartedatHessHall]

To clarify, this is the SEC honor roll. This includes the entire academic year at a 3.0 and not just one term. That makes it a little more impressive.

I imagine he needs a full year and not just one semester to qualify.

Awesome news. Butch gets it.
