Recruiting Forum Football Talk XVIII

[ssutvols]

If they stuck to the Jordan norm they would be the cleanest, freshest jerseys out there. Theyd stick to the traditional while just putting the logo on it makes it the most attractive.

I know it's just a hope for now though

Swaggy B gon plow right through the SEC

That's fresh

 

[The Breakerboy]

don't know the integrity of this rumor at all so PLEASE take this with a huge grain of salt as it MOST LIKELY IS FALSE

but I heard we MAY become an air jordan (jumpman logo) sponsored school (as air jordan is a division of Nike and the schools sponsored by it are chosen by Nike/Jordan/Falk).

The person I heard this from is an unlikely candidate for accurate information, so like I said previously, it's probably just wishful thinking, but IMO it would be pretty damn cool.

Don't lambaste me too hard if this isn't true

I've heard this for A WHILE.

If they put the Jumpman logo on some Tennessee orange the 13 year old boy in me will be like the guy in the Turn Down for What video.

Hey VN, don't really post much, but I typed up an article concerning Butch Jones and his recruiting in the state of Tennessee, and was wondering if you guys could check it out!
Big Orange Bias: Owning the State

Good read, thanks! Shows the importance to owning your state to set the foundation of a good program.

Rewatching "highlights" of 2013 Oregon makes me want to play them again in the near future so badly.

If the 2010 game never happened and they had a trip to Neyland scheduled for 2016, I think we would be favored provided we have a good season in 2015. Which is remarkable given how easily they trounced us in 2013. The teams were worlds apart but I think our roster will be better top to bottom by 2016. In fact, there are only 5 teams that will likely have better rosters (Bama, OSU, FSU, UGA, USC) in 2016, IMO.

Did yall also see the "My All" in the promo today? I bet that's embroidered on our jerseys. Which is nice.

I saw. Maybe on the back above the the state logo? Just a guess.

I saw. Maybe on the back above the the state logo? Just a guess.

Or maybe the sleeves? That would be a lot of font on the jerseys as a whole with the "TENNESSEE" across the front and the players names on the back. I'm sure it will look good though.

Will they have Maggitt and Hurd all yoked up and strutting down the catwalk? Preston Williams HAS TO have a role in this too. Fashion and modeling is his thing.

I've heard this for A WHILE.

Yea i remember hearing it a few months back but I honestly didn't think of posting it until I heard it again recently


we'll see Wednesday I guess :cool2:

 

[engineerVOL]

Air Jordan on a football uniform? I get that it's recognizable and timeless. And I love MJ.

But the sports region of my brain can't comprehend. I'll want to lace up my Air Jordans and chuck a football at the rim.

 

[VolFromNashville]

I'd like to see the "My All" in a Tennessee state border outline if they are going to include it. JMO.

 

[PassedOutAwake]

It was nice finally getting to meet someone from the forum tonight. Nice to meet you tonight OGbabyAvi. There were tons of Vol fans in the building today.

 

[Captain Mitch]

I caught black cleats in the hype video UT released today. I assume for the gray jersey? Which would also mean an alt helmet, IMO.

Could you post the link to the video?

 

[Chi-town-Vol]

Find it interesting that Alabama @ Georgia is a PK.....and Georgia @ Tennessee is a PK, but Alabama is a 10 pt favorite over Tennessee. Seems to me that that should be more like TN/Bama -3.

It's due to home field advantage.

 

[seaofORANGE22]

Please be Air Jordan's. That's ahead of the curve and unique and would be so fresh.

Don't worry EngineerVol. You be an engineer and Butch will keep building this football thing. Everybody dominates their roles and we all win.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

The My All part will probably be on the inside of the collar.

 

[YorkVol]

yeah like I said.. source is someone I never have gone to for any kind of legit info and it was more or less just brought up in convo

I think it could be a huge deal for recruiting but other than that, not much difference. It's still Nike gear just with the Jordan logo. Would definitely look cool and bring some great publicity (something our staff seems to be very good at).

So then Jordan would be just the latest recruit from North Carolina, right? Butch owns that state too!

:hi: Likewise, POA! We are having a blast down here. My nephews and I loved the 4 player air hockey game in there. I had never seen that before, but then again, I don't go to arcades any. For anyone who is down here, I HIGHLY recommend going to Kilwin's in Pier Park and getting the toasted coconut ice cream...some of the best ice cream I've ever eaten.

Got a TON of Go Vols, VFL, and Rocky Top from people, as I was decked to the nines in Orange! Even my wife said, "wow, you sure are getting a lot of Tennessee comments." Yep, boys, that train is chugging big-time!

Hey OG,

We played Baypoint Nicklaus today and it was $80 which is about my limit but it was nice. Saw a power T on a house on the course. We have played Indian Bayou in Destin before for about 50 and it is nice.

We are playing Baypoint Meadows course this morning. Booked the tee time on Golf Now for $45. I haven't played in almost 10 months...lol! Wish me luck. Man, there is Tennessee stuff everywhere down here!! #weonthecomeup

 

[BigOrange15]

DP said that the teams will have access to Jordan like all Nike schools but that's it, iirc.

Glad to hear that one is still around and nice. I played it several times over 30 years ago.

DP also said we would never leave Adidas.

No, he said he didn't THINK we would leave Adidas.

 

[AppStVol]

I agree. I don't see them putting that on the outside of the jersey.
