Would’ve loved Orange pants but they still look great

 

[Orange Studs]

I would like to recant my emotional statement towards Banks during the game on Saturday. I do not want to fire him.

Exhibit A:
our two


Reminder: we have very little talent on defense. We have two elite freshman edge rushers, and we have an elite defensive class coming in next year after we land Hobbs.

I said the same thing. I just got so frustrated with our DB's. Actually our front 4 have been playing really well. The play where our two DB's let that one WR catch that one pass between them and then ran in for the score just set me off. lol I know we don't have the best nor the fastest DB's back there and I am trying to be patient but they do try my patience.

This means more to me than it ought to. I’ve been lobbying for these things since I was a kid. Never thought I would see it.

I love the ORANGE helmet especially for road games.

You can't see because the tweet cuts it off but Dormady is starting

Dormandy!
Was he the one that was boffing Butch’s daughter?

Auburn On3 mod on a potential Kiffin deal. The second point is bewildering.

That's not even possible is it? The school doesn't negotiate the NIL deals for the students, so how could they promise that a private business entity would give some of the money from an NIL deal to the coach? That's not how NIL works.

orange cleats! that’s the one thing i’ve been hoping for

 

[jave36]

That post in an anonymous supposed insider. Can't really hold Kiffin responsible for what people on the internet make up.


(Hint: You really think a University is going to sign a contract that gives the appearance that they 'own' the NIL moneys? NIL has to be third party funds, and has no place in a University contract/budget.)

Exactly. Discredits the entire post if they even submit that as a possibility.

Tennessee football: It’s time to talk about backup gunslinger Joe Milton III

I love Hendon Hooker and what he has done for this team. VFL
Im rooting for Joe Milton to show out next year he has shown what a real teammate/team player is!

 

[Orange Studs]

I’m more excited about this than NSD.

Immediate talented help. Just what the Doctor ordered.

 

[MarcoVol]

I hope it grows on me or we just use it as a one-off because I currently despise the orange helmet. It feels like a high school helmet and just doesn’t look like UT.

I think those helmets are sweet

I’ll always prefer our white helmet. But I like this more than I thought I would. Especially with white pants. I almost thought it would have to be with orange pants to work, but it might actually look better this way. Makes it pop nicely

[jave36]

this is funny but it is a good question and a great point

I have to admit, I've been very surprised with how many teams, especially lesser opponents, haven't laid down to stop our tempo. I was convinced that after the MCB last year that teams would just lay down drive after drive to make us go insane. I wonder if there was something behind the scenes to severely discourage it from happening.

I will happily admit that I was very wrong that teams would do it to us nonstop this year. Kind of surprised at the same time.

Maybe conferences sent out a memo saying there'd be repercussions for fake injuries.

Need white on orange with the orange helmets but that still looks good.

 

[utkevdawg1]

I considered myself a traditionalist, but open minded until the All Blacks, which I liked.

These are fire. Look so good!!

2/2 on new uniforms this year.

 

[Fullfillmer]

Strong resemblance to Eddie Munster with this Beamer kid me thinks. Yikes

This is a return to tradition over 80 years in the making.

You seem to not understand how recruiting works…

I think we got a pretty good darn class with Hobbs still to be added.

orange with orange, white with white. Not orange with white.

 

[Orange_Crush]

I was just thinking the exact same thing. Kudos.

The "traditionalists" aren't really making an argument for tradition. They're making an argument of preference for their era. But it's natural.

The Orange helmet is FIRE

 

[ACvol3]

Helmet orange must not match our orange pants well enough. If we could get them to match, it would be a no brainer to do orange pants over white.

 

[SpringBokVol]

I don’t remember who was in the market to buy a 3rd row SUV but I too am now in that market

We ended up buying a 2023 Kia telluride and it was cheaper than buying a used 2020-20221 or 2022. Crazy!

What did you end up getting?

That’s my assumption as well
