Not uncommon for that dwarf to get outcoached, he just always has a stacked deck…

He has a shot at starting as a true freshman or at least seeing significant playing time. Banks is gone and I don’t know about Mitchell, Beasley and Page. He’s an EE so he’ll have spring practice and summer workouts before fall camp.

Could it be coincidence? The wife was just asking me today, if she ought to look into State Farm for our next homeowners policy. I said yes. I always say yes.

I had state farm for 22 years and Gieco gave me the same coverage for over half the price that I have been paying for 5 years.

Wasn't Lester McClain the first black player at TN or was it another? If so, what is going on in this photo? Do I see what I think I see?

Yes, and In 1968, Lester McClain became the "first Black SEC player to score a touchdown when he hauled in his first of two scoring receptions during UT's 24-7 win at Georgia Tech on Oct. 12. The foundation laid by McClain paved the way for other Black athletes at UT, including Condredge Holloway, who was the first Black starting quarterback in the SEC, and Tee Martin, who led the Vols to their 1998 championship and became the first Black quarterback in the SEC to win a national title."

You're right on the great Lester McClain. I wore his number in junior high. But I "borrowed" the photo to illustrate what "valid Victorian" [previous post's victim of autocorrect] football players would look like.

The black gentleman in the photo is Andrew Watson, a student at Glasgow University, who played for a leading Glasgow club-- Parkgrove FC--and who captained the historic Scotland team that beat England 6-1.

Watson was the son of an English sugar plantation owner and a native Guyanan woman. After a high profile career across Great Britain through the 1870s and 1880s, he became one of the team's leading administrators, bankrolling the club thanks to a large inheritance on the death of his father.

Can't help but wonder: is his story also the "fruit" of colonialism... or of God working good from all things?

Just curious, he wants to play early and Banks will be here next year. Is it hard to switch from MLB or OLB? I think he needs to be in ASAP if he delivers the goods.

He will probably know all of them but I expect him to start as a will or Mike MLB. Banks was a will and 10 was the Mike and 24 was the Mike. I just can't see Banks coming back unless he is going to finally get his degree.
