My opinion is exactly opposite.

The more times that our band plays Rocky Top, means that the Vols are playing better. Rocky Top used to be the most hated song by our opponents. I want it to invade their nightmares after we crush them.

Less Rocky Top means we aren’t playing that well. Didn’t you get enough of that over the last decade plus?

Rocky Top 20+ times per quarter should be a team goal! Maybe we should tell CJH?

15-0 with way more Rocky Top! 🤠

I think it should really only be played after scores or turnovers. I love that it being played means something good has happened but I just wish we would switch it up a little bit more

I am gonna say no to this “logic”
If the recruits don’t like to hear Rocky Top then they are not destined for great as a Volunteer.
I much prefer POTS playing Rocky Top over the crap canned music.
I miss the days where the POTS was the only source of music in Neyland.

I do prefer the band over what Sterling Hinton usually plays. I do like there to be a mixture but I wish the music that we played over the speakers wasn't 10 year old Hip Hop and had some newer Hip Hop and some modern Hard Rock thrown in

It bothers me how the growing thought of dealing with your own children is to escape them through alcohol. Probably doesn’t contribute to the next day being any better.

Bingo. Wine is sold as a "stress and anxiety reliever" when actual research shows the aftereffect is merely more anxiety and stress. And how does one deal with that? Clearly some more wine the next day. Vicious cycle all built on a lie.

Anyone else worried about our recruiting class at all? We went from looking like a top 10 with top 5 aspiration to might not crack the top 15 all over the last 2 months (despite a flurry of commitments).

No. Top 5 hopes were by folks expecting us to somehow win every major battle. Just not how recruiting works.

We have a 90.26 average and can (possibly) take more than other teams due to our extra space available and the 25-limit put on hold. That is definitely top 10 territory.

Here is my excitement as well - just imagine when FSU craps the bed (again). Not as confident Miami will, but they may too. A few other teams will as well. We won't. I think we'll be in good position to flip a couple guys...plus we'll have excess NiL $$$ to go after some late guys out of nowhere (happens every single season).

Just keep focusing on quality recruits over the long haul and class average. There's no rush and team ranking right now takes a backseat to quality.

I really needed some good football news. Had to bury my dog that would have been 15 years old in October today. My daughter had to help me dig a grave deep enough for a German Shepherd because my husband had to work. It’s not been a good day.

I am so so sorry. My heart hurts for you.

My daughter really wants to go to Florida State. She loves the weather, close to the beach and she went down there for a Dance clinic and did really well. I am not sure she is a good enough dancer to make their team (she is really, really good) but that is where her heart is. Yes, I know. I have also failed as a parent.

I haven't failed yet...she's a sophomore.plenty of time to right the ship.🍊

Anyone know anything about modding? I've created a mess the size of which even I have never seen before. I messed around with animations and got cocky because I thought I was safe using fresh installs and profiles and I've broken my entire install despite that. Even old save games on different profiles and attempts at new games my toon is stuck in a permanent tpose. Uninstalling and reinstalling the various mods hasn't helped (there were only a handful but it only takes one with animations). I've gotten FNIS to recognize the skeleton but I'm still stuck in a tpose.

I have well over 300 mods installed (most have no effect beyond texture) but I don't want to chuck the whole thing because I don't want to go through reinstalling my enb and these again even though they're relatively easy that's a lot of checking and unchecking. Why did I do this?
