Someone should paint the rock.

Tennessee loves our Coach VOLitello.

 

[Orangeblood75]

Let’s do our part Volnation, we need to let coach T know how much he’s appreciated here. Lots of schools are going to go after him. This team of basevols is an awesome group of hard nosed, never quit players. No superstars, just a good coached bunch. GO VOLS BEAT THE HELL OUT OF THOSE GATORS .

Pay the man Danny!

Sadly UT baseball isn't loved enough for someone to spend $15 on spray paint

Students are gone. Who will do it if not a student?

Summer session is just around the corner, so the students will be back soon.

We just didn't realize what a treasure Payton ? was when she was here. She spent a fortune of paint and did masterful work.

all it needs to say is “COMMIT TO THE MAN”

At 15$ a can, it might be cheaper to say "PAY THE MAN"

 

[fryeguy93]

Should bring out all sorts of professional painting equipment and paint the thing

I would like this 1000 times, Danny, clocks ticking man, 48 hours.

I stopped by once while she was painting and offered a donation. Said they were covered. GBO!

His pay is 3rd on the list. Facility commitment and staff raises are above his salary….you could offer to pay CTV $2 mill and without facilities upgrades he’s gone

Agreed. That's my read on him, too.

 

[vol66]

If Danny White knew what was good for him he’d go paint it,

It would say...

He Ain’t Leaving!

Nobody had revenue coming in during Covid, so it's about what's in reserve and how your boosters are doing financially and how important baseball is to a booster. I think we have to pony up on facilities regardless if we want to compete in the SEC long term. We didn't do it for Delmonico and paid the price. Depends on what UT wants to be. I'd think they'd want to promote the goodwill that comes with a winning program that's not going to bring in a ton of revenue but is winning the right way. Lady Vols comes to mind. Lot's of Tennessee kids on SEC rosters. We are a baseball rich state in terms of talent.

The future can look a lot like the past, or we can have a future of a revenue neutral, championship quality baseball program with a nice facility in an upgraded LNS. The problem is the money needs to be dedicated now, just as you say, just as money is tight everywhere because of the pandemic. Tough waters for AD White to negotiate. Let'shope he can pull it off.

Can't hang our hat on just football anymore. We need to look at all sports. IMO.

Like those Lady Vol NC banners we hang in Thompson Bowling. Very little revenue involved there. I agree. It's a goodwill statement to do what we need to do for baseball. Only 2 revenue producing sports and Title IX waters to navigate.

Phil Fulmer has some free time.

It would say...

Or he could at least text a friend to do it.

Yep I agree with little revenue. Multiple strong sports teams can't hurt the perception of a schools athletics program health.

I’ll come up and paint it. Won’t look good but it will say something about paying Tony and go vols.
