Should Vol fans storm the court when we beat a top 5 team?

No more than your ridiculous jump that students don't go to games because they can't storm the court. Logic is lost on these boards at times.

Yes, because you certainly didn't imply that by saying that this thread was "exhibit a as to why students aren't coming to games."

So, when the Vols were a top five team did any of you go to practices and storm the court after scrimmages?

It was a ridiculous that I took that from your posting that a thread about storming the court is "exhibit a" as to why fans are corpses and students stop going to games, and I am illogical? Jesus Christ dude, I knew you were lacking in intellect, but you just took it to a whole new level.

This thread encapsulates the idea that UT is "too good" and we should "act like we've been there" rather than the idea that sports are exciting and students should go nuts at the end of your biggest home game of the year. Bruce parades the team through the crowd into the game, but at the final buzzer the fans and players are separated by a couple of keystone cops ready to lay a beat down.

Now, repeat out loud three times, "I AM WE TODD DID".

So, you are saying the only way to celebrate is to storm the court? Then you stoop to fifth grade attempts at humor. Every post you make just proves my point.

I've been a fan of storming ever since my father and the other allied troops stormed the beaches of Normandy in WWII. That turned out pretty well for the good guys.

Good idea.

Let's put some field mines under random seats. Give it that Normandy feel.

Instead of checking for a free drink from Sodexho under your seat, you better be looking for explosives. We could even show replays during the first media timeout of the people who didn't check.

Fair enough.

Good, clarify it for us, what is your point?

Taking away a tradition like storming the court after your biggest win of an incredibly emotional season is just one more wedge between the team, fans, and celebratory support.

Apparently SEC rules prohibit students storming the court. The school is fined when that happens. With a win as big as the one Saturday. I say let the students have some fun and pay the fine.

Storming the court is almost as dumb as the "Overrated chant". The bottom line is that Pre-Pearl and Pearl's first Florida game were "ok" reasons to storm the court. It had been a while since we had achieved that kind of success.

But where we are now, there is no excuse for storming the court, against anyone. Save that for the Vanderbilts and South Carolinas of the world. Bruce has elevated this program to where competing with teams like Kansas and Kentucky is a given and beating them should not be unexpected.

In summary, storming the court is for losers.

We have flame rules, I am sure that as the master of logic you can figure out what my point is.

The second part is just pure BS. Fans are going to be fans no matter what. Storming the court is for losers and people who like throwing money away.

Didn't you hear? UT IE with his uber brain was absolutely shocked by the win over UK. Because of his amazing intelligence, that means that we were all shocked. We haven't been in the top 20 all year or anything.

The wedge between fans and players is not going to change because a bunch of morons can't get to the floor.

You stop a kid from getting to the floor and that pretty much is the beginning of the Apocalypse.

Nevermind the 300 pound man in section 118 who has a vertical jump of 4 CM's. The real wedge between fans and players is whether or not they can storm the court.

What a shame.

scoreboard doesn't account for anything? how does running down to the court enhance one's celebratory abilities?
