This just might be the best play against KY yet…

[miket4god]

Bad decision, sure (he's developed quite a rep for making those), but it hit him in the chest. Really is more of a great play by the defense.

Sorry I was talking about the Alontae Taylor pick six, not the hit by Slaughter and pick by Juju Mitchell.

The Taylor pick six is totally on Levis.

My bad, either way, I don’t understand the term being used for guys who go to other schools. It’s fine if they want to leave, I have no issue with it, but seems odd to call them all VFL’s.

Right. When they were called VFLs after leaving UT to play for another college, I assumed that poster was being sarcastic, and just didn't bother with the blue font.

 

[Orange Navy]

Yes, my blue font didn't work. I actually like Slaughter, he was a solid contributor for several years. I guess my first reaction was: great play but both of those guys are gone.

 

[KTrain]

I thought so too. I don’t even think he said anything on social media, he just talked by playing the game. I can respect that

Yep, surprised me when he came from behind and really didn't run D SAM down but he dived and stretched out and tripped him up with his hand. We scored the next play but when I saw Slaughter do that I knew he wanted this game really bad enough to even injury himself on what basically turned out to be a meaningless play, considering 1st and goal at the one.

 

[VFL-82-JP]

Is Hooker not a VFL because he played elsewhere? What about a guy like Ty Chandler who played 4 years and got a degree from Tennessee, only transferring due to getting a 4th year from Covid? How about Cade Mays, who committed to a rival despite being heavily pursued by Tennessee and even had the nerve to film himself besmirching Tennessee before eventually coming home?

What the lads did before they found their way to Tennessee is not part of the equation. People get to Knoxville by many routes.

But what they do once they're here, that matters. If they leave for another school, unless there are exceptional circumstances, they're not Vols for LIFE after that.

Hendon, of course, is. Once with us, he stayed true.

Go Vols!

Doneiko Slaughter and Juwan Mitchell. 2 VFL’s for sure

No, when you transfer you can't be a VFL.

 

[Rocky Top T]

Doneiko Slaughter and Juwan Mitchell. 2 VFL’s for sure

Neither are VFL's

 

[GiveHim6InSC]

Didn’t Levis cry after this?

 

[WillisWG]

Didn’t Levis cry after this?

98 yards 3 INTs lots of Cats players cried

 

[GiveHim6InSC]

I just want the Vols to show up and hammer down. Beat these guys physically.

 

[ButchPlz]

I can't believe Will Levis is on an NFL roster. He sucked ass in college and (shocker!) he sucks ass now.

What if they’re asked to leave? Or like Ty Chandler’s case where if he had been born a year earlier, he would have exhausted eligibility at UT

And I hope the Titans hang on to him for a long time

 

[PEPPERJAX]

Will Levis is not good.

I know that play isn't on him, but just throwing it out there.

How was that play not on him?

 

[Vol1976]

Slaughter played with a chip on his shoulder in the Arkansas debacle.

Wasn't he their designated dropper that game?

 

[JRich]

How was that play not on him?

[Johnnyreb#VFL]

Then we get beat by Georgia the next week and completely murked by South Carolina later to bury all our hopes and dreams. Just sayin

 

[tnburban]

One of the very few INTs Levis has thrown that wasn't his fault.
