Need those back.

 

[Brave Volunteer]

Need those back.

Yeah. I miss them atop Neyland. I felt like removing them was removing a small part of our stadium's identity.

Also removing them probably cursed us or something.

They just have them out for fans to have their picture taken with at Fan Day, same as they did at the spring game. They aren't going back on the stadium.

sorry DP but...

BOO this man!!

I sat under the S for the 45 - 3 dismantling of Florida. I'd do it every game from here on out for the same results.

Those look to be 12'+ tall gauging by the size of the people underneath. Where could you even store something like that? Its take a warehouse.

They need to be bigger. TWSS

Maybe putting them back will break the curse we've been under for a while.

that's funny right there, I don't care who you are. Let's keep something fans love locked up to take pictures of once a year.

Kinda like wrigley field...you can revamp it while keeping the aura of classic tradition...guessing same smart people who didn't like "Lady" vols.

Are they on display anywhere? If not, that's a dang shame.

Hey, I live in that area.

It’s the radar image from Friday evening about 11pm. It looked so much like the “Vols” I copied it, it takes some imagination with the O but I see the V l s. Personally I take it as a sign the Vols will be awesome this year.

I thought you retired

I thought you retired

I was, have. But as I just told another concerned individual, the radar image was too tempting not to post.

was there much of a crowd ? Looked like rain in that OP picture

It poured down rain and they ended up cancelling the open practice in Neyland, had a closed (to fans) practice inside. They did have a player autograph session after the practice.

They actually purchased the ones in the photo and have allowed UT to use them for events. They were going to have them installed down on the river, but ran into some regulation issues with TWRA.

The original orange letters have been bought and sold a couple of different times over the last few years and are currently owned by private collector.

Come back Dan, you are missed.

 

[photovol]

I sure hope this isn’t some dumpster fire starting rumor !

Yeah, that fake news stuff, right?

 

[DoyleMcOrange]

Bring them back, I say.
