If they stay healthy, there is no excuse to not win 10 in regular season this year.

 

[Rishvol]

Not going to lie that 1 looks better on kongbo than kmac.

 

[Ron Swanson]

Barnett on the mic...

"says the long sleeves are for mental prep for the heat this season.

Said practice is going fast because they are a veteran team.

Said Butch is letting the players run the team because they are veterans.

Feels good being back out there and healthy.

Likes shoops aggressive style of defense said with a smile they watched a lot of tape on penn state and vandy this summer."

Butcher is also going to be used as a hybrid DE/DT player as well. We're going to be ok at DT that's unless we receive a couple of season ending injuries.

Then, we're going to be in trouble a little if that happens. We will be forced to use players like Picou, Paul Bain, or walk-ons if the injury bug hits the DT position.

This has been speculated by people on this board but never by anyone covering UT football. It could happen, but we have no reason to expect to see it yet.

I've touched on my mama's long list of serious health issues on here before & you guys have pulled through & been gracious enough with prayer in some really tough times.

She got a call back about an abnormality showing up in a recent mammogram today, so more testing next week to see if cancerous or not. If you guys could say one more tiny tiny prayer for her it would honestly mean the world to me.

You got it Brother! Prayers are and will be sent.

If you guys haven't seen Fingers thread in the FF it is worth the venture over there.


favorite line from one of the sports writers......

"Mid season form on day 1".

 

[UTProf]

KMac is a LOT leaner.

With KMac slimmed down and Kongbo beefed up, it looks like we have two KMacs out there.

 

[UTProf]

With Strip's coaching, I'm just not worried about the DL in any way.

One of the most underrated coaches out there. What he managed to do when he had no DTs and had to rebuild the entire DL was freaking amazing. I'm convinced that he can make anyone into one hell of a player and when they've already got talent, look out.

Will do. I deal with cancer patients on a daily basis. I do a lot of praying.

I think that comment was referring to practice going beyond its scheduled end time.

That's awesome I just spewed hot coffee all over the phone...thanks Butchie

So now that Butchna hacked your computer and used the camera to film your fluffy unicorn reaction, then turn it into a gif...you're famous!

Butchna gets 25% of all royalties for any use of your likeness since he "discovered " you... Butchna, I get 10% of your 25% as your agent. Ulysses, I could be your agent as well for standard 10%. I would be glad to add you to my talent stable. I also represent CatBone. As well as several other VN notables. (Most don't know it as I directly deduct the 10% from their bank, 401k or pension, and/or college fund.

As obamacare hits harder and harder, gotta make ends meet. Branching out in many areas. Got a rival fan that you want "retired"? Gimme a call. Rates for accidental, natural, and just plain missing or a few of the options...

I bet he and Shoop feel like kids in Willy Wonkas chocolate factory this year.

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

If lane is talking about this year then he's not lying. We have done a horrible job at in state talent this year thus far.

<8months does not a recruiting class make.

It ain't over til Butch says it's over.

Lean back toward optimistic, it suits you well.

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

Somewhere a Vandy fan's head just perked up. Probably called his wife and told her someone, somewhere was just talking about Vanderbilt Football.

Rumor: lane kiffin slated to be the next head coach at vandy

You heard it here first folks.

 

[Dobbs 4 Heisman]

Tuttle news sucks. If he's not running by week 2 or 3 of fall camp, he will be a relative non-factor for most/all of the season IMO.

WTF? He's already running. Where did you get the idea he isn't running yet?

Read the other practice reports. They said he was going through d-line drills and showed no obvious limitation. He's just out of shape.

OMG..Are you Saul?

TKjr (new number)

Kongbo

TK looked in great shape. Alot better than last year where he was a little overweight.

And Kongbo looks like a beast. This guy will be great right off the bat.

 

[LotteryPick]

He's killed it so far brother

He really has. Incredible coach.

 

[WesTnVol]

For the first time in along time I actually feel sorry for the QBs we will play this year. KMac and Kongbo going to hurt somebody by making them run away from them and towards Barnett!!!

 

[UTProf]

I bet he and Shoop feel like kids in Willy Wonkas chocolate factory this year.

No doubt. Defense is going to be so much fun to watch this year. I can't wait and I honestly believe people have no idea how good this Defense can be barring injuries.
