Graduates of schools other than UT

[Tennessee Golfer]

Since I'm a huge UT fan and have made my mind up to go elsewhere, I was wondering how many of you didn't graduate from UT?

 

[DC Vol]

Univ. of Maryland

Was it hard to pull for UT when you were attending somewhere else?

No, not at all. I was attending UM when I was stationed in DC as a Marine. Even got a chance to fit in a game on my honeymoon.


We lost to LSU. :-/

I don't think it will be to hard for me either because I'll be attending a D-III school.

Milligan College(NAIA) and Old Dominion. With MC being my undergrad school, I think I would actually cheer them on over the Vols in any sport, regardless of how unlikely a victory would be.

Got the Master's at ODU, and saw a couple of games against the bball Lady Vols and I was sitting in the donor section of the Constant Center in a bright orange hoodie.

Tennessee Tech and nope. UT played Tech the year we (Tech) made an NIT run. I was friends with several guys on the team and I sat in the stands with all the Tech fans and pulled for UT.

 

[OrangeWilly]

University of Tennessee at Chattanooga

 

[EricFreakingBerry]

MTSU

Actually went to the MT/UT game back in 2002 with my orange apparel on, so definitely had no problem rooting for the Vols. I was pleased to see that it was a somewhat competitive game though.

I have 3 college degrees, and none of them are from UT. My only experience at UT is a summer research program I was in there almost 20 years ago. I've never had any trouble rooting for the Vols. It's in the blood. I was listening to football and basketball games on the radio in the days before teams could on TV seemingly every week.

 

[UNAVol89]

I go to a D-2 school, so it's easy for me to go for Tennessee.

Now if my school (North Alabama) moves up to D-1AA and plays UT, I might have some conflict.

 

[LAVolfan]

I went to Louisiana Tech. I was in school the year Tennessee played Tech and made the trip up to the game. I was in all orange and got my tickets in the Tech section. Some of my friends are still pissed at me for doing that. I also pissed a lot of Lady Techsters off for wearing a Tennessee hat to class every day. That used to be a big rivalry...but the Lady Techsters have fallen off the face of the earth.

I'm going to Berry College in Rome, GA so i'll probably have no problem with this then.

 

[volinbham]

Tennessee and Kentucky. I taught classes as a grad assistant at UK while wearing orange shoes I spay painted myself. It's not hard to pull for the Vols no matter where you are!

 

[doozer]

Tusculum College

 

[TEX_VOLFAN]

Went to University School of Hard Knocks...they play six man football so no problems rooting for the VOLS!!

 

[Business]

Went to a small private school in NC, so there was zero conflict of interest in rooting for Tennessee. Hell would have to freeze over before my school and Tennessee competed in anything.

 

[Clemson Volunteer Fan]

I have a group of friends I get together with and watch UT games with at school. My fanhood hasn't conflicted yet.

Tennessee Tech and nope. UT played Tech the year we (Tech) made an NIT run. I was friends with several guys on the team and I sat in the stands with all the Tech fans and pulled for UT.

cold blooded

 

[Jaytrain5]

Ponce de Leon Northwestern Community Technological Institute and College of the Ozarks.

Surprisingly, there were a lot of UT fans there. Never had any problems rooting for the Vols.

 

[KingNick865]

Well, seems like most on here have gone to small colleges that didn't affect their rooting interests at all. For me, well, I'm most likely going to a school that's considered one of Tennessee's biggest rivals.

Where's that?

I went to Berry also. The choice in the fall between Vol football and Viking soccer never was very difficult for me.

 

[emainvol]

Doing my undergrad at MTSU. Considering a transfer.

And I have no problem pulling for the Vols.
