Because I don't care.

No. I am a little indifferent as well.

In the LV forum a week or two ago, I posted and got roasted about me finding it ironic that our country is going PC these days and we want to be more inclusive, yet we have a group of fans upset at taking "Lady" away. These days, people get upset about anything.

Enki- thanks for those memories. I was blessed, as a freshman at UT, to be able to attend every game you posted. I made 11 of the 13 games. Probably the best fall of my life.

My favorite Ward call: "This football game is history, and the undefeated Volunteers remain just that way. It wasn't easy, but it happened."

I was just fortunate that the timing was right. I have an older brother, also a UT grad, who was living in Atlanta at the time. That allowed us to go to a couple of games and stay with him. Once we won the SECG, we knew we had to go to Tempe.

I couldn't afford Tempe but I was a junior that year. Such a magical drain.

I still remember, I had requested off for the Florida game months in advance. They didn't honor my request and I quit that day. One of my best decisions ever!! :)

5. CB
Cameron Sutton
Jonesboro, Ga., 2013


Cameron Sutton Sutton was not ranked nationally, at his position or in Georgia in the Class of 2013. At 6-foot-1 and 190-pounds, Sutton has the size that NFL scouts currently look for in a cornerback. He's also aggressive, loves contact and has been a starter in Knoxville since he basically walked onto the campus as a true freshman. He has also been able to showcase his overall skillset on special teams, where he's become a consistent threat as a punt returner. While Vernon Hargreaves grabs most of the headlines at cornerback in the SEC, Sutton has somewhat quietly positioned himself into the talks as one of the top players at his position for the 2016 NFL Draft.

Farrell's Take: We undershot this one a bit. If Sutton were a high three star prospect, we could justify things more, but as a mid-three star not ranked in his home state, this one goes down as a miss. A tall and rangy kid, safety was an option we thought at the next level if corner didn't work out, but SEC lockdown guy we didn't see. NFL scouts see it though and he could push for that top cornerback spot in the draft with a big season. - See more at: https://footballrecruiting.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=1766024#sthash.PSHKljV8.dpuf

Great memories! I was in my 2nd year of vet school...wow, what a year to be a part of it all! I took that era of domination for granted… When it happens again soon, I definitely will not take it for granted this time.
