You do care, otherwise you wouldn't try to promote their "irrelevance."
Unfortunately, the fact that UT gives 2 rips about Vandy shows more about who has the inferiority complex. Most Top 10 all-time programs don't worry about the Vandy's of the world. It's the equivalent of Michigan and Ohio State obsessing over Northwestern....I promise, they don't.
Closed practices aren't a new or even rare thing. Opposing teams scout each other whenever and however they can, up to video of the whole practice if they can. Closed? No big deal. Not worth comments. What's more fun is reading all the 'I got a wedgie over this' posts.
They're only a nuisance if you allow them to be. By allowing them to get under your skin you give them credibility. Just ignore them. Promise me when UT beats them this year you won't rush the field and tear down Vandy's goalposts!

"....I'm not a fan of that," Mason said of opening his practices to the public. "I mean I don't know whose fans are our fans and whose fans are Tennessee fans. So really, in the end, I just chose to keep it to our (football) alumni and our boosters..... I'm new. I don't know who is who or what is what...."
Derek Mason won't open a practice for fans
You know you could just stay out of this thread. makes no diff. if you like it or not some fans do.. go find another thread to input your self satisfying opinion in.
