Our family recipe is called Nuts ‘n Bolts. Here ‘tis:

Ingredients Needed:

• 2-3 cups of each:
o Rice Chex
o Wheat Chex
o Corn Chex
o Cheerios (Honey Nut adds sweetness if desired)
o Cheese-its
• 1 large can mixed nuts
• 1.5 cups pretzels
• 2 sticks of butter
• ¼ cup Worcestershire sauce
• Celery seed

Directions:

Mix the rice Chex, wheat Chex, corn Chex, Cheerios, and Cheese-its into a bowl.

Melt 2 sticks of butter on the stove top and add 2-3 teaspoons of celery seed and 1/4 cup of Worcestershire sauce.

When all is melted, pour over the ingredients and bake at 250 degrees for 2 hours, stirring every 30 minutes. We like to put ours in the smoker.

10 out of 10...would recommend.

I want answers as to why we 'moved on' from the WR who was in campus this weekend?

Wasn’t that just a rumor from a random person on here?

 

[VolFanNC09]

Yes, there are going to be like 12 teams in this new Meat grinder SEC with lots of money, resources, and desire to win and only so many wins to go around.

I think the floor is 8 wins. I think realistically 8-9 wins a season is the average, but at least every 3 years compete for the SEC championship or at least be in the conversation.

 

[VolFanNC09]

Gross and I don’t understand how this is possible with their stable of rbs. Thought Tenney wanted to be THE guy?

I called it earlier in the year with him transferring and wish we could land him. Him and Sampson would be dynamic.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Any good news today?

Yes. It’s over 4 years since I have had a carbohydrate in my body and I have never felt better.

This class will be how to go 4-8. Pathetic

bet the curriculum looks something like this:

Unit 1: Be incredibly naturally physically gifted
Unit 2: play a highly watched sport
Unit 3: don’t mess up (too badly)
Unit 4: make obnoxious noise, any publicity is good publicity (ft. Guest speaker Lane Kiffin)
Unit 5: Now you’re an ahole getting paid to be one

yes. it was.

Member how many stars this kid had at Dollar General Academy?

Why isn’t Byron Young the favorite for Defensive Rookie of the Year?

Young has outpaced several members of his fellow rookies in 2023

I eat plenty of carbs and feel great myself

 

[knoxvol52]

For the Dodgers, I hope they get Glasnow.

 

[Devo182]

Is it possible we’ll get a night game vs Florida in Neyland? When was the last time that happened?

Nico gonna play with UF like a lynx plays with a mouse. Gonna be ugly in Neyland.

Buying tix early and taking our NY friends that have never been to a CFB game before. He grew up an SEC and also UF fan during the Spurrier years (can't blame him) but now he enjoys the Heupel offense.

They really want to go to see the tailgating and 100k+ stadium. I really want them to go to indoctrinate and finally convert them to the good guys

 

[knoxvol52]

For the Dodgers, I hope they get Glasnow.

In general, why would Dodgers want that walking IL problem...
Corbin Burnes most likely a Dodger if Milwaukee trades him...

 

[Smyrna ATL Vol]

Nice! I’ve been debating the same. Even starting with a 72 water fast

Thats why I want them to get him. It would be nice to see that 25-30 million for them not playing.

 

[Devo182]

We’ve beaten them 4 times this century. They’re a loss until they’re not.

"Until they're not?" This is so 2015 heading into 2016.

"I'Ll nEvEr bElIevE iT uNtiL I seE iT!!" Well, you've seen it...2-2 at Neyland since 2016.

But all that matters: we're 1-0 at home against them since Heupel was hired.

Only parameters that matter to this particular instance of the matchup.

I was getting ready to watch Vols BB tonight and turn TV on the SEC Network. Finebaum show is on. I have been watching for last 10 minutes. I have a serious question. How can anyone watch him? This is the most boring show I have ever see. This is the first time I have ever watched this and the last time I will watch it. It is on mute now

Free agents preferred in our situation, due to rebuilding minor league but also need to look at age and/or injury history. I’d go with

1) Jordan Montgomery

2) Blake Snell

3) Dylan Cease

4) Tyler Glasnow

5) Marcus Stroman

6) Corbin Burns (only because I don’t believe he’s really on the market)
