Now he seems to be the Definition of VFL.

Edit: some seriously good air time for UT, and right before NSD.

He's a class act all the way around.

When would you ever see a kid go to hospital get checked out and come back to the stadium and play.
All after a separated shoulder. Wow.
I didn't know that story until now.

I'm 45 and was fortunate to see him play once against Kentucky in 1974.Tennessee won 24-7 i think.That was many moons ago.I think that score is accurate.

I watched it too. I wasn't born until 93 so I didn't have the opportunity to see him play, but I love watching that film. I am so proud to be a vol fan, even in these down years. Tradition lives here. GO VOLS!!!

I worked a lot in Canada especially Toronto. He is a living ledgend up there. Any time I have casual clothes on and UT hat or shirt I get lots of recognition because of him. About six years ago I was tailgating at 17th and White and some Canadians came up to ask directions. They said they came all the way from British Columbia because they always heard about Neyland and it was on their bucket list. They joined our tailgate and had a great time.

Every player on Georgia Tech's defense touched him on his way to the end zone on one of those highlights in the film, amazing! I also seriously enjoy anytime Tennessee gets air-time on ESPN. Another huge bonus is that this is right before NSD as another poster said.

Did anyone else catch it when the announcer on ABC during one of CH's games said that Tennessee had the highest winning percentage out of all teams in the NCAA in the last 40 years?!? Thats tradition, and hopefully recruits watched that film!

I'm surely biased, but that is the best ESPN documentary I've ever seen. Bought it for my dad the Christmas before last.

If you mention his name to older Ga.Tech fans here they just shake there heads. They still can't believe some of the things he did against them.

Some of my favorite memories are from his time as a Vol

That play against Georgia Tech simply cannot be relived too often. Condredge displayed great elusiveness and surprising strength. He dragged the first defender for 3-4 yds. before breaking free and later ran over another defensive back. See Is It A Tennessee Vols Myth?

My dad hasn't seen this yet so I'm trying to find the complete show for him online but I'm not having any luck. If any of you guys could find it and post the link here, I'd certainly appreciate it.
