Recruiting Football Talk VIII

I went to sleep too early and woke up at 2. Won't be able to sleep again this morning. . .

Good news is I had a fever dream. It was a lot like how the Rosetta Stone was decoded.

I was on a 40' yacht/cabin cruiser named "SweetAsSoda" a few hours down river of Neyland Stadium. We were preparing to start the final race of the VolNation Regatta. We were in second place, just a few points behind a local boat builder named outVOLuntary.

We were about to sabotage his boat to secure a win and claim the 10 pack of exclusive season tickets to all Vols' major sports and a vacation to a holler in Roane county for a purple Yeti sightseeing adventure.

A huge storm was rolling in and one of our crew-members was late. Then Coach Heupel appeared and jumped on-board and said he would lead us to the title.

We got in our positions and just as the horn sounded to start the race, I woke up.

This all leads me to believe that we're missing a huge opportunity to have a VolNation Regatta with the Vol Navy for our first few home games before the weather gets too cold.

A charity event with the money being split between St Jude's and The Vol Club in honor of SweetAsSoda.

Winners get season tickets to football, basketball, baseball, and women's basketball.

Is @InVOLuntary gonna donate the boats? I'm poor. Yetis don't believe in lots of personal possessions.

I hope we win another football championship before Yellowstone erupts

Why doesn’t ut build a big parking lot on the otherside of the river and build a pedestrian bridge across the river connecting the university and the parking lot?

I don't think there is anywhere over there to build now

Yall MFers. I’m chronically 1-2 days behind lately and I’m just reading along, catching up on the gossip @VolsDoc81TX style and I go to click to reply to someone and I realize.. they left me. I’m sitting here all alone.

I just did the same thing..lol. I was going to reply to a question about the recent geothermal explosion in Yellowstone that someone asked me and...there was no reply button..

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

To all of you worried about Yellowstone...this is not a magmatic thing. When you walk around the thermal areas in Yellowstone there are dozens of old geysers and springs that have blown up, a lot of them were much bigger explosions than the one the other day.

I've been right by the one that just blew up in Biscuit Basin.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Can we get a wellness check on Tits McGee? I haven't seen him post in a couple of days.

[Buddy’s Bandit]

We really don’t need more football scholarships. Only going to increase gap between have and have nots.

I agree but I do think the Transfer Portal will act as a “governor” for this.

July 25, 2024: Those of you, My people, who have been through trying times, I tell you that your wounds (both spiritually and naturally) will heal. Pick yourself up and prepare to move on. You have learned valuable lessons and have become stronger than you ever thought possible. Put the past behind you; there are good things ahead, says the Lord. Isaiah 43:18-19 Do not remember the former things, nor consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing, now it shall spring forth; shall you not know it? I will even make a road in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.

I feel like an old man saying this but I’m not too excited about the development going up. I’m sure it’ll be cool and all, but I am afraid it will taint the “college town” vibe and hometown feel.

Did you say boat race? We've been working all summer on an entry.

@InVOLuntary, sorry about your Ferrari.

I’m only 31 but I feel like my dad at times.. I see the change happening

All the old geysers are on VN complaining about new developments.

 

[GUNTERSVOL]

You said that wizzer not me… I was thinking like a big ass Smokey or something

Somehow Smokey with a life ring falls a bit short. The Rifleman in a canoe is a no go as well.

Maybe we need to feature a bigger Port VOLUNTEER with checkerboard docks and piers and bring it down all the way to and beyond the new complex with an overhead walkway for access with drink in hand for a stroll along the TENNESSEE River. Maybe feature a few food boats instead of food trucks. Great access addition for the new enterprises not requiring concrete and asphalt.

DW will figure it out. He not only thinks outside the box, he ain’t got no box.

 

[peaygolf]

Fine!

I hope the Yeti myth is dispelled finally as a hoax!

Finally some free time to get caught up on here. Took the cruise week before last and it's been balls to the wall with our garden since. We've did 119 qts of green beans, 20 quarts of spaghetti sauce, 18 qts of tomatoes, 28 qts of tomato juice and 40 pints of relish over that time! Oh, and 22 doz. ears of corn!

 

[Glitch]

Been there many times brother.

Sometimes it is nice to be able to read and relax in the quiet, when all the kids are out playing in the new thread.

You pooped in the old thread, didn't you?

 

[triadvolfan]

Tempting us with good feelings and then… Paywall.

I'm broke but I'm going to guess:
Nico
Ridiculously good DL including potential #1 NFL draft pick
Veteran OL
Receiving corps with lots of people back and some nice additions
Coaching staff that's proven it can overachieve
Expanded playoffs means 10-2 will get us in

That's 6 and I could have kept going. It's going to be a fun year.

Dont mean to squash your good time, just try to relish all the memories.

Ive never heard balls to the wall in reference to gardening. That's great!

Ninth page. That's best page.

Mmm hmmm. Like warmed up left over riblets.

Apparently to start a zoo you need at least two pandas, a grizzly and three polars.

It's the bear minimum.

You, however, will never have a zoo. Do you know why? Because you're unbearable.
