Friends in Low Places at the end of 3rd is the worst.

[jonnon111]

Prove me wrong.
Terrible song for motivation, no connection to Tennessee, sung by an Oklahoma boy.
Our recruits and players guaranteed hate it.
What does it have to do with anything? Better yet, why that song?

 

[Frozevol]

agreed. No one under 40 can understand how this is relevant.

 

[driscokid]

I liked that ol 3rd down song personally. Best thing Butchie ever did really

 

[Eastknox865]

Hell I'm at every home game and never paid it any attention. I couldn't tell you two words of it

 

[madbamahater]

The worst for sure. Tennessee, please pick any thing else. Anything

 

[Special Ed]

As long as the song played at the end of the game is "Another One Bites the Dust", I'm OK with the music.

 

[Bearkat_Vol]

Can't stand Chris Gaines, er Garth Brooks.

 

[aaronvol]

We should do dixieland delight and call it our own.

 

[tennrich1]

Opposed to anything involving G.Brooks!

 

[VolBricks]

I have to listen to that rap crap all game long, At least I can understand the words Garth sings.

 

[CPA]

I sit close to students and band and they all appear to enjoy the song and participation. Thought this was for their benefit not the older adult fans.

I'm just gonna KEEP posting it till it becomes "the choice" of Mr. White...

THIS should be played INSTEAD of that Okie song...it took place in Neyland...Gibbs High Graduate...it "hits Home"...it's an actual "sing-a-long'...the lyrics fit a true East Tennessean...lasts 4:45 seconds which is perfect timing...it ends with a guy in a Power T hat...and it FEATURES "The Sheriff"...

Imagine THIS on EACH Jumbotron...

Nope, the best thing ole Butchins ever did was make sure our players attended class and upgraded players' GPA. I seem to recall we were under scrutiny for academically underperforming players at the time. And in likely danger of being disqualified to play. Bodies are fine, but brains are better.

Hell, he's better than Jason Aldean. I hate singers that need auto-tune to sound good.

Garth, and George Strait, singers like that, sold hundreds of millions of records without needing an engineer to fix their weak voice.

 

[VOLfrombama]

The offseason is back baby!

 

[WoodsmanVol]

Opposed to anything involving G.Brooks!

Due to his selling Bud Light at his bar?? I wasn't happy about it either, but you know, the guy wanted to make money. It's what capitalists do. Me? Nope, I don't Budlight. Still, capitalism is what it is. Gotta luv id, evan whine you don't!

A socio-economic system based on private property rights, including the private ownership of resources or capital, with economic decisions made largely through the operation of a market unregulated by the state.

So you have asked all the recruits and players if they hate the song? Cool man. When did you get time to do all that?

Please tell me DW isn't picking the music at games too..lol. He's got to be spread pretty thin. How about a little Red Solo Cup. It's also sung by an Okie, but a lot better man.

True. Imagine if he preferred 70's disco. We all would suffer

 

[Flipdaddy]

I’ve said it before, copperhead road and touch the fireworks off one time at 19 seconds when the bass drum hits. Play the song and you’ll see what I mean.

I always thought it was stupid.......just another thing to forget CBJ era......

So tell us how you know players and recruits hate it? Are you saying our recruiting would be better if we didn’t play it? And our players would play better?

 

[OrangeVolMan]

agreed. No one under 40 can understand how this is relevant.

Except all the students stand and sing so I’m pretty sure they are all okay with it.

If you don't think Vice Chancellor/Athletic Director Danny White has a say/hand in EVERY aspect of the public perception of EVERY athletic outlet at the University of Tennessee...then you DON'T understand the position...or the Man.

 

[Vol8188]

Why are we playing a song by a serial killer at every game?

That’s insane to me
