A disagreement in one of the player threads led me to see if I'm just getting old or am on the right track.
Quite frank , it’s not up to you to decide or even think. That’s why they have a block button. If a player thinks “hey this is too much” they would block you . They wouldn’t even like the comment. So your answer is , it can be whatever the recruits want. Each will be different. You can’t dictate all of volnation on how they should act or respond to that specific player. The player I’m sure will let you know know.

I would never debase myself to find out. That's your job.

Actually if you refer to the poll results I feel rather justified in my position that you are a weird duck.
Sure, ok. The same Ones that is most likely your age. Set in the old ways. I can see that 10-15 years ago, times has changed. Like a post above stated there are influcers who are paid good money to do this. I just use my own time to post cause hell that’s what a fan does. I eat sleep breath UT sports. If I could would write on it or have my own podcast but my “sonic” paycheck won’t let me. I’m happy you get off to trying o make people miserable, shows the person you are. However it won’t stop me showing my love for the Vols and expressing how cool it would be for the #3 Dlinman in the country to come here. Regardless if it helps or not. At least he liked my comments, and really that’s all that matters . Have a good one newt

Is that what the kids are calling a championship these days, a "chip"? Or, is that just what 30 year old "adults" are calling it?

Um…..I have called that a Chip ever since I was a kid……. And so does a lot of others . Also some refer it to a “ship” just depends where you grew up at . Played ball for Honaker High in Honaker Va, 2008 first team all region D dlineman . Again, just like my wife asked , it’s something we have always called it from where I’m from. You going to “ mom” me now?

I mean, you want to send a gif or orange emojis then whatever. But writing paragraphs trying to convince them to come to your school is weird.

I promise you - there has never been and never will be a kid who is on the fence about the school and the deciding factor will be because a grown man on Twitter told him to “come win a chip” at Tennessee.

Just sayin

Block you?!?! I can't, man...you're a 2008 all region double D lineman from Honaker, Virginia!!

It was a laugh , dude like wtf, I said hey we won the sec in basketball, btw come here and win one in football and the bigger laugh was come win both like damn, cause he wants to okay both ways?!?!. A paragraph is 5 sentences if I’m not mistaken . If y’all wanna bitch at a fan go to a ga forum or Bama forum like what kind of fan base literally sits here bashing their own fans????! A troll maybe but a legit fan I spend 1000s of dollars on tickets and gear . Just for y’all to bash me a damn fan lol like your have got to be kidding me. Forum police are you all literally not seeing how these people act towards their own fan base???? It wasn’t even begging just a post about us winning and bringing a “chip” to our football program . The curse isn’t the Vols it’s y’all. Narcissist, negative , fans

That was a tough read. You definitely shouldn’t be trying to recruit for the team.

Want to do your part? Join the 1951 Club on Spyre. “Like” their pro Tennessee posts. That’s about it.

The rest is just weird.

Man you are the one who has come on here over the past couple of days picking fights like a troll. Come on. Go get you a seltzer water and chill with your sonic onion rings and enjoy life. You have tried to pias off everybody in the rf today. We get you are a super fan and not fake like 2 dollar bill.

Y’all have some issues , I’ll be the bigger person and just block ya myself . What 4 people out of Hundreds and thousands of fans……never seen a fan base attack another fan like y’all do. I can understand a troll but I real ass fan. Y’all lives must be
Miserable or something. Need to get a life . Like saying I’m not Heath Miller . Never said I was but he never played defense like I did either. And because of family issues and drug issues I didn’t pursu college. And hate myself to death over it cause I was actually really good. Call speak to coach Hubbard. Was just lazy when it came to school. But again. Y’all real low life’s to just sit an attack someone else you don’t even know . That’s just being supportive. That’s why I teach my kids to beat y’all’s kids asses that bully

Don’t know who that is and don’t care but have many accolades and trophy’s to back my claims up. And been a member here since 2008 or whatever , never once talked about myself, y’all instigate it. Again, get a life. Have nothing else better to do but punch the key board at your own fan base . Sad.

Are you really not paying attention? The guy literally made this thread because of our discussion yesterday. I finally made my posts public and all I get was hate. I didn’t post anything like “ man come on, we need your so bad here and we are like trash without your talents . Please please come to Tn and make us great again.” I get it . Y’all have been friends for along time on here . That’s cool but still doesn’t give anyone right to just post about someone and then i just it sit back and not defend myself. Wouldn’t say or think any less if it was you or anybody else. Be supportive, that’s the whole damn reason why we have this great website. To talk about Vols sports and keep the energy up. If you can’t see that then I don’t know what to say.
