I saw where Dre Kirkpatrick Jr. committed to Bama. Was his daddy like 5 when he was born? I mean, it seems like Kirkpatrick Sr. was just playing for Bama, and now Jr. comes along.

I feel old.

Was that house right on a curve on Walker Springs? Lighter colored bricks?

I don't remember the house...I remember the awesome lighted Tennis-Basketball court. There was a little garage off to the side, and one day one of the guys took me over there and showed me a beautiful red corvette through the windows...he said it was a car that Dr Overholt had bought for Tony Robinson.

Doesn't matter we won't have to punt all year.

Been refreshing this thread looking for ChattaTN’s roast of the UF defense.

Where it be?

Edit - or any other super long analysis by him.

August 19, 1951

Hall of Fame baseball owner Bill Veeck is remembered for many things, including winning American League pennants as owner of the Cleveland Indians in 1948 and the Chicago White Sox in 1959; suffering injuries as a Marine in WWII that required him to use a wooden leg the rest of his life; signing Larry Doby as the first openly African American player in the American League; and bringing Satchel Paige to the Cleveland Indians as a 42-year-old rookie.

To the many people that refer to Veeck as the “Barnum of Baseball,” however, his legacy is associated with a single plate appearance that he orchestrated as a publicity stunt while owner of the lowly St. Louis Browns in 1951 .
The man who took that plate appearance was Chicago native Eddie Gaedel, who at 3’7” and 65 pounds is the smallest man ever to play Major League Baseball.

Armed with a small strike zone and Veeck’s orders not to swing, Gaedel would draw a four-pitch walk against Tigers starter Bob Cain, in what would be his only career plate-appearance.
As he trotted to first base, the fanfare continued as Gaedel was lifted for a pinch-runner. He would end his career with a perfect on-base percentage of 1.000.

13 days and a wake up!

Terry Fair. Another unforgivable sin by Pruitt, firing Terry.

I heard a crazy story.. we got a picture of clemson’s first drive play sheet before our game with them. Came from a girl on tinder that dated a guy on both teams or something like that haha

 

[InVOLuntary]

Their stadium isn't indoors.. it's as outside as you can get.

Thanks Jiminy

Eric Westmoreland. Most underrated LB in TN history. I’ll place my pension on it.

Love it.

For a number of years we had seats beside a couple who were very close friends/mentors of E-Mo's going back to his youth in Jasper. Great RB in high school. After his career ended he would join them for some of the games. Really enjoyed visiting with him - super guy. The kids love him at the camps.

Hopefully it was faxed to avoid detection.

Bryce Young watching that Hyatt TD from the sideline last night must've had the most annoyed facial expression of all time.

I'm so starved for football that I'm watching Tennessee-Vanderbilt from 1987. It's not looking good so far, folx.

Sounds like something made up by a Clemson fan to help soothe their loss.

Is my story old news? It was the first I heard of it.. but I work closely with a guy that played on the team the last 4 seasons and is still really close to some current players.. so I do have some info finally. I’ve been asking a lot of questions
