Is that the school with the good medical program?

If so, I know a couple of people who went there and it is indeed a fantastic school

Eric-

For what its worth bro...my best friends son was recruited by UT a few years ago.(Zach Maxwell, 6'5", 290)he ended up not going to college and now works for the sheriffs Dept.

He stayed on these boards, we discussed things here all the time...it DOES matter what is said here!

these guys tell you it dont matter,thats so they can continue to bash,but honestly they dont know for sure what they are saying. Most of the negavols couldnt coach T-Ball,but know all about UT football..

So to have an opinion one has to be a coach, or have the ability to coach?

That's cool.

Just a heads up...you're about to head down a slippery slope by taking this angle

That's not true.

Also some of the dumbest people I have ever met when it came to sports played them.

Your blanket statement was wrong.

For real. The whole "I played football and you didn't" angle is kind of old and played out to begin with.

There you are..wrong again..never said that.Not the angle i was headed for. But it does not matter..you and others like you would argue with someone if they came on here and said the grass was green..just how you are!

It depends. Where is the grass? Is it in Boise, Idaho, or Knoxville? :)

Then what was your angle? You said "I bet that most of the NegaVols have never played football"(paraphrasing here). Usually, when somebody does that, it is to discredit, or at least attempt to discredit, the poster in question.

well my grass is pretty brown right now, in Arizona we never had grass only rocks and people in Nashville can't even see their grass to confirm it's still green. It really depends on where you're from

I know right where i am,and right where ill stay,you negavols cant run me off...and my grass is green and very pretty thank you!


and you can like it or not, the truth hurts..if youve never been a coach, how do you even know what a coaches job is?..if youve never been on a football team, what makes you a guru about what a team should be?...yes, there is a difference between the guys that have played and the ones who have not.

The guys out there playing for our team realy like CDD,and they have had three different ones to judge by,..they know whats going on, are you guys thinking you know more than they do?..you all act like it.

I'm not bothered that you're a vol - i dont think anyone cared about that part. It's your tone and the way you came about attacking people who disagreed with you

and then you started throwing out out your GPA and SAT scores like they not only mattered but like the reality was you were smarter than everyone else and almost like they just couldnt understand...on a board where you have people who are already lawyers (graduated law school), doctors, or are already in outstanding schools

-- for example, you want my case, I'm at a school called Washington University in St. Louis (look it up, on a bad year we're the 13th best academics in the nation; most years we're 8th), getting ready to grad with a psychology major (and taking neuroscience courses also);I was offered full rides at multiple southeastern schools (Bama, USCe, UT, UGA even scholly'd) -- there's a whole lot of smart on this board, more than you seem to give credit for

my point being, there are alot of intelligent people on this board; coming in and throwing around your high school GPA and SAT scores like you're smarter than everyone else (as your tone indicated) is not only pointless, but you get the response like people are giving you.

you love the vols, that's fine; but your professed scores and intelligence had nothing to do with that at all

Ok I get it, people were insulting me and saying I needed to learn how to write. That's why I put my gpa, obviously it wasn't a smart thing to do. I just don't get why people totally bash people on grammar and stuff like that, this is a message board remember. I was not underestimate what anyone on here has done with their lives or their professions. Btw my psychology teacher went to that school, he talks about it all the time.

Btw the reference about the hillbillies was just from people I've seen in Tennessee. My aunt lives there and I've experienced it, my apologies if I pissed anybody off by that statement. Lesson learned.

I have no problem with the resume part of coaching.

The negavol title is quite cute, but not near as cute as your infatuation with grass.

You just remember something when you talk about us hillbillies: Some of the greatest men ever to lead this country came from Tennessee.Some of the worlds greatest heros came from Tennessee.Think about that.

he actually does appear to be apologizing for his earlier statements on the matter, so perhaps best to call off the dogs at this point

it's going to be a very quiet world if people are only allowed to comment on things they've actually done. Coaching Pop Warner doesn't make anyone an expert

And its clear most of you enjoy it.
