VOLS vs MTSU

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Waiting on Smith: Tennessee point guard signee Ramar Smith of Detroit is awaiting the results of his most recent SAT attempt.

It's his last chance to qualify academically, as he's a few points short on his test score. Smith and the Vols hope to know the results of that SAT before the end of the month.

Hmm, anyone else realize that is when Fulmer's contract expires? Those of you that don't like him, better get used to him. I can see him moving up to take Mike's job in 6 years.

I like the MTSU addition. Nice little 2 1/2 hour-away in-state rivalry, especially with the ridiculous growth MT has experienced in the last decade.

That could be a nice little in-state game to go see.

Why are we going to LA-Lafayette? Did Buzz schedule that? I don't understand why we should be returning a game like that. As for the subject at hand, I agree that a game at MTSU is a good idea. Also, Pearl is the biggest straight-shooter out there. Notice his public comment that the MTSU game is a "nothing-to-gain game for us." :birgits_giggle: I suppose he means that winning will gain us nothing. That comment may end up on MTSU's bulletin board.

I would rather see us playing MTSU, an in-state rival, than say.....LA-Lafayette, even if it is a "nothing to gain" game, which could also be said about playing LA-Lafayette. At least playing MTSU, it isn't too far for either team's fans to travel. And playing at MTSU would showcase the Vols to fans in another part of the state.
