I briefly worked for the NCAA. The guy I replaced got caught embezzling money, so they docked me ten vacation days and banned me from the Christmas party for two years.

It really is all eyes on Joe this year. He already commanded the spotlight with the Manning Camp performance. Take it to the next level Joe

Big week. Get ready for all the other coaches to take direct shots and indirect jabs.

also, lol @ Nashville's skyline now. None of those buildings were there before 2010

Wrong. The bad gang areas are way south and southwest. A long way from what actual Chicago is. You would have to get on the wrong subway going in the wrong direction for 20-30 minutes to be in these horrible areas.

Chicago is an awesome city. My wife used to live there and we hope to eventually have an apartment/condo there. She lived about half a mile south of Wrigley Field. It’s actually a very liveable city and not near as expensive as you would think. I have probably been there about 25 times. It’s awesome. So much to see and do. Best Food City in America after New Orleans.

My sister and her husband lives in Wicker Park and loves it there. I like visiting in the summer. I’ve been once in the winter and that’ll never happen again. I prefer my mild southern winters.

He has a massive, life changing opportunity in front of him that very, very, very few people get. I hope he dominates and gets everything he can from it.

I’m rooting hard for Milton to have a breakout season similar to 2019 Joe Burrow that takes college football by storm and becomes a feel good national story. He’s such a likable person.

Memory lane. Nod to Jauan Jennings and lmao at the Gayts.

I found the photoshop I was looking to add when I posted that.

Vol Nation....
I need your support & prayers.
My wife was admitted to the hospital late last night. She suffered a stroke at 35 years old and is pregnant with our 3rd child. Please keep us in your thoughts.

Done. Truly heartbreaking. Praying for the best.

Wicker Park is awesome

I think the overall principle is to spread the biggest names out one per day. The four (based on last year's on-field results) are Kirby, Heupel, Kelly, and Saban. Why Heupel is last I don't know, but he is also opening SEC Nation coverage the first evening. So Heup will appear on both the first and last days.

Josh Heupel To Kick Off SEC Nation Live On Lower Broadway July 18 - University of Tennessee Athletics

But as to who appears with the headliners, it definitely looks like Sankey is trolling us to put Heupel together with Kiffin and the USCjr goober. It's almost like begging them to say something. I'm just glad we are a big story now because we have earned it.

Thursday, July 20
Ole Miss -- Lane Kiffin | DE Cedric Johnson, RB Quinshon Judkins, CB Deantre Prince
South Carolina - Shane Beamer | DL Tonka Hemingway, P Kai Kroeger, QB Spencer Rattler

I'll take "Have you ever coached or been on staff at UT?" for 1000 Alex.

Alright… Tennessee needs a chrome Helmet. Similar to the chrome red one Louisville has except make it orange obviously

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

 

[TrippieRedd]

Your sister is friends with @TrippieRedd?

Who isn’t?

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

I love that helmet.
I also love the Orange one that we wore at USC last year.
Unfortunately, many fans associate that helmet with the terrible game result. So who knows if or when we will see it again.

It’s associated with a loss equivalent to losing to georgia state. It’s a nightmare that changed our trajectory last year. Got HH hurt and was just downright embarrassing.

I’m personally not sure that an Orange helmet in any form should ever be considered again. The football spirits we’re very clear that 3 helmet options are enough. Under no circumstances should Tennessee start looking like Oregon.

Stay classy Volunteers!

Do you want an ugly sparkly helmet?

Or

15-0

I know which one I prefer…

I'm trying to understand @VolsDoc81TX's position on chrome orange helmets. It looks like he is saying 2x3= 6 times,
