Because the NCAA has said it was, as for why, I guess since every school doesn't have a rock, or unable to get students and fans to paint it, we get singled out

Painting the Rock is 100% a Violation, the school knows it's a Violation

Plot Twist: ESPN hates us. Tries to nationally highlight a violation via ESPN website, in an attempt to dismantle our our #3 national ranking.

Darn you, ESPN...but well played.

In a somewhat related topic, does anyone know how many scholarships the program has left for the 2014 class? I know they already have 24 verbal commitments

I saw some guy say we were down to 22 since the Juco wr de committed and he thought Paulk would be a grey shirt. But who really knows? Surely there's a silent somewhere!!

ESPN doesn't wear Orange Colored Glasses.

When we play well, perform well, etc. then they will have something to talk about. Its already happening.

I do not recall them hating us back in 98...

They get paid to talk.. so they talk.

Now... Tom Ritter... thats someone who hates us.

No duh...that's their job. It shows exactly what you said. When we do good they will say positive things. When we don't they're not gonna say ohh TENN is the best. The keep it real and aren't out to get us. Lmao

Exactly. You, "ESPN hates us whiners" need to get some realistic perspective and while you're at it a life.

As Swafford struck a similar celebratory pose to the one he’d struck in the Swamp, the sun-kissed stadium that rises from the banks of the Tennessee River was literally vibrating, the exact moment, in fact, when the sleeping giant had officially awoken GO BIG ORANGE !!! VFL This was a good read.

let it go man. the fact that peyton is doing what he is doing STILL is testament enough that they massively picked the wrong guy. woodson is a good player but not the caliber of peyton. its ok

Oh I know but it's always good when someone says espn doesn't hate us to let them know that they have hated us in the past.
