I wouldn't say no one beat him out. Can't argue that McDowell isn't a much better player on the field than him. Also, no one else has even gotten a chance. Someone might show out once actually given a chance. Happens all the times that people are bad practice players but great in game players and visa versa.

Hmmmm, seems like every other school plays the best players possible and here at UT you play just because. Im not one for calling out guys but this is rediculous. If the oline doesnt improve and lb depth cant be figured out then mahoney lb coach and butch need to hit the frickin road. Certain guys playing bc of reasons unknown is getting crazy, maybe after ohios te across the middle scores about 25 times butch will figure it out. Fl will expose him bad along with the next 3 opponents after that. Ive been supporting butch for awhile but this **** and the oline **** is pissing me off. Dont forget our WRs cant seem to get open or even do anything.... This whole offensive philosophy suck, oline sucks and so does coaching. WR coaching sucks, QB coaching sucks. Im so tired of Jones bull**** sometimes, and i like him and want him to win big here, just some **** he does is really geting on my nerves.


I wish somebody would call into vol calls and ask butch how many times Fls TE has to score next week before he changes up the LBS, and how many sacks a hurt Thomas or robertson give up before he gives a player like jones a chance.

...sigh...

Meanwhile, Ole Miss whistling past the graveyard on Finebaum right now. Fairly hilarious.

Even had a kid with a "LET THE BAND PLAY DIXIE" sign that magically disappeared after one segment.

I used to have two. We live in the country and so stuff does get in but they would take care of it. THEN we'd have to chase them all over the house to get the mouse or whatever else they caught and throw it outside.

I think I'll put an order in for about 500 after this incident!

If it was a rat snake or king snake, then don't get rid of it. They are actually constrictors and impervious to the poison of water moccasins and rattlesnakes. They will actually hunt down and kill those Vennema snakes. They will also kill rats. Great snake to have in your house truth be told. :salute:

Real question: did you forget to renew your Xanax prescription or something?? It's gotta be that, or you ain't been laid in like 20 years man.

Hopefully the magic defense Shoop mentioned last week has to do with a Magic Mike.......LB

I think it's more of a misdirection type thing… See our defensive line. Now ladies and gentlemen, watch as they make the opposing quarterback and running backs disappear!

Colubrid but not in the constrictor family. King snakes eat other snakes so they are good to have around.

I have a Ball Python at home and used to have more before kids. Fascinated by most snakes. Don't care for the venomous ones though. I get green and black rat snakes in my back yard I pick up all the time.

I am riding with 53! Unless you think The coaches want to lose then he has beaten out a lot of highly ranked recruits for a job. I love a good underdog story.

I wonder if JJ Mcclesky caught this much criticism for being a walk on? I am betting not

I don't think it's so much about jumper being a walk-on I think it has to do with the fact that he has consistently given up play after play in every game he's played.

Thank God we didn't have message boards then.

"Why are we playing this little twerp from Karns?! KARNS!!! GAWDALMIGHTY. Is that what we've come to? PATHETIC. Recruiting is apparently a waste of money."

The SO is snake-phobic. Oddly enough, I'm not. My brother and I used to have a python when we were kids but lordy does your opinion change when you look down and one is crawling up your leg! I'm not ashamed to say it scared the ever loving ish out of me.

If the bugger would institute a no-touch/crawling on me out of nowhere when I'm least expecting it policy we might be able to compromise. :)

So basically the other players supposedly having good practices at MLB and being interchangeable was another load of crap from Butch? I agree with catbone- I hope Jumper gets exposed enough times that Shoop is forced to try someone else. Now is the damn game to do it, not next week. Butch's stubbornness and unwillingness to adjust will be his downfall here. I expect this crap from him but am surprised that Shoop is on board with this ridiculous plan too. And what if Jumper gets hurt- it's not outside the realm of possibility- what's their backup plan then?

I would think if you and Cat were real Vol fans you would wish Jumper came out and played a great game!
Guess that would not be as much fun??

That would be fine if we hadn't seen this movie before already. Jumper played last year and it's clear that he was not the best option. Nobody wants to see the sequel with the same storyline as the original movie.

MLB becomes less of an issue if guys are getting hit at the line or the QB is pressured into making bad throws.

DL needs to own the line of scrimmage.
