It is nice to see coach that gets it, that would go out of his way to acknowledge a fan like that.
I am a UT fan but went to ETSU (I will cheer for the Bucs over the Vols in basketball). We are finally starting
to get it up here with our new President and AD.
A story similar to yours in reverse. at the SGA meeting when they aprroved football coming back a senator wore
a UT visor. Dr. Noland called him on it and the kid said they didn't have any ETSU visors at the bookstore. About 15 minutes after the meeting the kid said he phone rang, somehow Dr. Noland had got his number. Dr. Noland had gone to the bookstore found a visor on a manniquin bought it and called the kid to come to his office and get it. To me THAT is going the extra mile. It gives me hope for ETSU athletics just like Butch Jones actions give me hope for UT football.
