Stokes won't come now. (IMO)

[UneducatedGuess]

All you fans of the grocer can have it after this one

The op is overreacting, but I strongly discourage polarizing statements like this. Not every fan who is frustrated is a pearl fan and vice versa.

I want Tennessee to succeed and its frustrating to see our team play at our opponents level like that.

exactly

I hope you know I was being sarcastic.

"Although the film takes place in Pennsylvania, a Tennessee flag is shown in the courtroom. This is because the set decorator was unable to find a large enough Pennsylvania flag for the scene, and the blue Oregon state flag wouldn't work because it had "State of Oregon" text on the upper part. So the set decorator used the most generic flag he could find, which turned out to be the Tennessee state flag." Animal House (1978) - Trivia - IMDb.

I often come to this forum for the laughs...

 

[johnnybravo]

Totally agree. This loss just made Stoke's mind up for him. He will not come to a team that has a slim shot of making the NIT.

 

[VegasBaby!]

When animal house references go unnoticed it makes me sad.

Movies over thirty are generally considered to be old movies. Certainly older than many on this forum.

 

[Calculon]

Yes, because people always make huge life decisions based off of one day.

That happens all of the time.

 

[No1UtFanJmAn147]

I guess he won't go to Memphis either since they just got beat by Murray State.....

 

[1985Vols]

Stokes will come to UT if he wants to get out of the city of Memphis and be the star that gets us back to an NCAA Tourney team. I think Memphis losing to Murray St. is worse than UT losing to AP because Memphis is loaded with talent and UT is rebuilding after losing 4 starters and 75% of scoring off last years team

We lost right at 2/3 of our scoring.

I'm pretty sure the germans didn't bomb pearl harbor

Seriously?.............SERIOUSLY?? lol:

Kentucky is probably out now, too. Stokes is screwed....life as he knows it is over.

Why would a winner want to play with a bunch of losers?

That's why my post count is so low for having been around three years.

so you are mad that you missed a famous quote because you are too stubborn to catch up on pop trivia? I would rather be old and wise than young and uninformed.

We still play with you.

 

[Bigun]

So Stokes won't be going to Ohio St, Kentucky, Memphis or Tennessee because they all lost this weekend.

I guess Austin Peay and MTSU are now in the drivers seat of his recruitiment. I think Jackson State Community College won this weekend too so throw them in there.

Someone tell me why we signed Derek Reese and some guy at Brevard:

College Basketball Recruiting Schools - ESPN

I wouldn't think a 2-star in Orlando would be worth the gas to recruit him, but it may be me wincing at the two 5-stars and one 4-star that Kentucky already have signed.

One reason could be that Rosburg stayed in Missouri.

C'mon man, both losses were pretty bad but Murray St. is 10-0, Austin Peay is 2-9.

The Reese signing is definitely a bit of a head scratcher, however Edwards can play and I expect him to be a contributer once he gets here.

 

[DaDuRkEr]

Don't sleep on Reese guys. He will contribute as well

 

[ChiefVOL]

I knew we had an Einstein amoung the VN - Stokes to the VOLS!

 

[PoochPunt3rdDown]

You should make another ban bet on it

I wish I would have made that bet with you, ******.

Why would a winner want to play with a bunch of losers?

I guess he thinks he can help them be winners, too.

We'll see, man. All you fans of the grocer can have it after this one, can't argue too much that this was terrible loss. I just think it's dumb to say one loss is gonna change his mind if he's truly leaning to Tennessee. The argument could be made that he sees this game as an opportunity to come here and help the team win.

Good point.

UK still here.

Thanks UT.

No, thank you.

Totally agree. This loss just made Stoke's mind up for him. He will not come to a team that has a slim shot of making the NIT.

I guess he didn't read your post....

 

[Chris4Vols22]

Good point.
