Yep, we saw what happened with the boasting poster on Saturday's game. Let's celebrate Monday around Midnight. THEN decide what to do for Tony V.

Tony Vitello Way

(is there any other way???)

 

[Rocky Top T]

Just take Fulmer sign down, make it Vitello Way

So if I hear what you are sayin, whomever is the most recent coach to bring home a Natty is who that street is named after? Might it be easier if we just named it:

Natty Way​

 

[Vfl2407]

Tony Vitello Way

(is there any other way???)

In years to come, to be followed by:
Josh Heupel Highway
Rick Barnes Boulevard
Kim Caldwell Corner

When it happens (and it will) it's gotta be Tony Vitello "Drive", no?

Looks like they're gonna gave to get on with picking a street running east and west to re-name

In my best Johnny Carson "I did not know that!"

Someone will likely name their first born, Vitello after tonight.

I think there are plenty of exceptions. There are no dwelling units along Philip Fulmer Way, are there?
Maybe some of the exceptions were there prior to the adoption of the code.

Too soon, needs to be here a little longer, IMHO.

So it’s “too soon” for the best coach in UT baseball history? No. Fulmer has a street and only won 1 NC and 2 SEC Championships. If we’re gonna get baseball to where it needs to be in terms of talked about more, it needs to happen. Tony deserves a street.

Fulmer is a true VFL, both played and coached for the Vols. CTV is a great coach for sure, if he sticks around long enough, he may even get a statue as well as a street.

We can agree to disagree, IMO, it's still too soon.

That baby naming will likely happen in about 40 weeks.

Seriously, I am all for "Lindsey Nelson Stadium, Robert M. Lindsay field at the Tony Vitello Baseball Complex", hereafter to ever be known as:

"The V!"
