BYE WEEK = Who was Tennessee’s quarterback when you became a Tennessee fan?

[kobecraigevans15]

Erik Ainge! Met him at the outback bowl in 2008 when I was 7 when we beat Wisconsin in the bowl game. Loved Crompton after him as well

Am I the only one to answer Sterling Henton?

He was frustrating to watch

 

[mudhen]

I don't remember, but I'm pretty sure that he was related to Fred Flintstone.

 

[Ernie McCracken]

First home game I attended as a wee lad was a cold, gray, icy, day with snow in the stands against Vandy.

Jimmy Streeter

I ain't been right since!

GBO

He was frustrating to watch

I was too little to know any better. And I was mostly listening and not watching at that point.

Was already in my mid thirties in the mid eighties, but Tony is maybe my favorite Vol QB. The dude could takeover a game like no one we have had before or since. Only downside to Mr. Robinson (besides getting injured his senior year) was when he started being Tony, someone's band was gonna be playing soon, but it may not always be ours. lol The 1984 Alabama game and the 1985 Auburn game were two for the ages. RIP Mr. Robinson a true VFL.

Bobby Gordon who ran the single wing. Man, I'm old as dirt. Probably no one on here ever heard of him. He was a greatest athlete.

 

[GreyhoundMan]

Bobby Scott with Curt Watson in the backfield.

The pride of Joplin, Missouri, Alan Cockrell. My how Tennessee football has improved since then

Same here. Started playing pop warner football in 1983 when Cockrell was QB.

First games I remember watching were with the artful dodger making opposing defenses look foolish.

Daryl Dickey 86 sugar bowl winning QB. I was 8.
