A possible new Vol?

[Freak]

This is from an NC State Message board:

Re: Any word on Brian Setzer? Reply
Rumor is that he may be going to UT if he can get into school. I do not know the nature of his academic problems on getting into NCSU for sure, but the rumor is that NCSU would not accept a course or courses, which might be accepted by UT. Supposedly, UT and Ga, among others, were all over him when he could not get into UT. UT was the first school to recruit him while he was in high school, so that may be the connection UT fans believe will give UT the edge.

Gotta love it.

Actually he is 6-6 280 and about a 36" verticle jump. The word is actually confusing whether its UT or ECU.

I'm just adding this so MY name will be on every post on the index.

 

[Volstorm]

oops.

 

[airman4vols]

the more the merryier, but should we get the chance we should rub Brian in every face of carolina

 

[Gatorhater]

UT or ECU? That should be a no brainer for him, especially considering the state of our D-line...

 

[Freak]

You would think it would be a no brainer but who knows. I haven't heard for sure how hard we are after him.

 

[Vol67]

What I'm hearing UT is not pursuing him.

You can sympathize with THAT can't you Storm?

lol:

 

[Volstorm]

MY degree is from UT. How 'bout you?

 

[LadyinOrange]

My degree is from Union University. UT can't even TOUCH its academic record.
But Union has no football team, so I love the VOLS!!

 

[Volstorm]

And how many people in the US have heard of Union over Tennessee?

 

[Vol67]

Yes, Academics

I have . . . but then again, I'm from Jackson.

 

[Volstorm]

Yes, Academics

I thought that was the case.

 

[LadyinOrange]

I don't know how any college athlete keeps his/her grades up. The pressure has to be tremendous.

 

[GAVol]

Tell me about it. I washed out after 1 semester of college golf. What a loser! :shakehead:

You are NOT a loser!! College isn't for everybody anyway. You don't have to have a college degree to be a success.

(Don't tell my third graders I just said that. LOL I try to make them believe they HAVE to go to college.)

 

[Volstorm]

That's why they invented majors like University Studies or Urban Studies (or Political Science ).
